Introduction
This guide contains spoilers for Acts I, II, and III, so I would highly encourage you to finish those acts before viewing this guide.
There are a lot of details hidden in these locations, and I loved being on the road with no destination in mind. Knowing where to go kinda breaks the charm though.
However, if you really had trouble finding certain places, this guide might point you in the right direction.

No need to give any directions.
Railroad Track
You won’t see the sign unless you’ve stopped before the roads that lead to it.
It’s in the middle of the lake probably because it’s the train station that got flooded and repurposed, as mentioned in Act IV.
Museum (now you can clean up the glass you’ve broken)
Petting Zoo
Tavern (The Lower Depths)
The Zero
Just follow the instructions in the game. The radio is at the bottom left corner, so just change the frequency until there’s less static. The dialogue will tell you if it fits the criteria (something akin to familiar but weird)
On the Zero
If you got lost, just go to sleep (click the “zzz” at the bottom left corner of your screen) and you would be directed to the next plot-related location.
