Tales Of The Neon Sea Gameplay Walkthrough

Palm Pioneer and Zodiac Interactive’s Tales of the Neon Sea is an indie cyberpunk adventure game that came out on PC at the end of April. For gamers who picked up a digital copy and needed a little help with some of the puzzles and navigation, there’s a gameplay walkthrough available to help you out.

YouTuber wolftooth has a complete series of videos available covering the game from start to finish, and offering solutions to some of the puzzles. You can check out the Tales of the Neon Sea walkthrough below.

The controls for the game is pretty simple. If you’re playing with a gamepad you can use the left analog stick or the digital pad to move around or select options from the menus. You can run by holding down the right bumper, while interacting with objects can be done with the ‘A’ button on the Xbox controller (or ‘X’ on the DualShock), or alternatively you can use the ‘Y’ button to interact with objects (or Triangle on the PS4 DualShock controller). You can open up your inventory using ‘X’ on the Xbox controller or Square on the DualShock.

Alternatively you can use the keyboard and mouse for navigation and interaction purposes.

Once you get done with the settings the game starts with a prologue sequence. You have to keep pressing the ‘A’ button to stand up and then rapidly tap ‘A’ to crank the valve and keep the hallucination at bay. Use the steam pipe by pressing ‘A’ to further waylay the hallucination.

Head to the edge of the waterfall and drop down.

First thing is first, you’ll need to manipulate some of the steam pipes to get your hat back from the rat. First you’ll need to use the yellow valves to push the rat onto the red pipes, and then force the rat to move onto the blue pipe by shutting off the steam on the yellow pipes and activating the red pipes.

Once the rat is on the blue pipe over the waterfall, shut off all the other levers and then go over and crank the valve wheel to get Rex’s hat back.

Go into the next room and examine the objects. You’ll need to power up the maintenance center to restore rex’s hand and foot. Go to the far left side of the room and get the multi-function screwdriver out of the locker. Head back to the broken robot on the right side of the room and use the tool to acquire the ankle part form the robot.

Exit the maintenance room and the cat will kill one of the electronic arts. You’ll need to capture some cyborg rats with the help of William.

Go over to the robot in the junk pile near the steaming pipes and use the screwdriver on the robot to acquire the wrist device.

Next up you’ll need to take control of William and acquire the Cyborg-rat’s storage pouches.

This is a bit of a mini-game puzzle where you’ll need to sneak up on the cyborg-rats and pounce on them.

You’ll need three pouches. The object is to get around to the back of the rats and pounce on them. You’ll need to remove the fungus by tapping ‘A’ on the context sensitive parts, as well as move the debris out of the way by removing the fungus.

Once you get all three pouches William will return to Rex. Go over to the left and there’s a sealed cable wire you can acquire, which will be required to power up the repair machine.
