Tips Before You Start
Give the page a clean tab if you can. Close noisy streams, let the iframe take the screen, and read with sound on low if your browser allows it. The game isn't hard to click through, but it's easy to skim past a line that does most of the work. Pay attention to small verbs, to who answers first, to the moment a character goes quiet.
If a polite line makes you flinch, follow that flinch. If a request feels too reasonable, remember it. The best run is usually the one where you let the game catch you being polite when you meant to be honest - and the second run is where it stops feeling like a story and starts feeling like an argument with your own willingness.
