Introduction

Please note: all credit goes to Painik!

The guide is divided in chapters based on levels of first episode. Each chapter contains list of secret locations with description/hint and a map, where the spots are pinpointed.

The list of secrets is in order you can usually first find them (but not necessarily order of solving them).

Before you continue reading, I would suggest trying to find the secrets on your own first, they are usually not too difficult.
