== First Steps ==

You start with a border inspection. Answer those questions how you see fit, however it's advisable to ask border guy some questions yourself, who knows what you can get from him.

=== Character Creation ===

Before starting a new game, you will be prompted to select your difficulty. Currently there are three options: Default, Casual and Custom. Indeed, the first two options are self-explanatory, however Custom is not recommendable for new players. Difficulty settings can be altered in-game through the settings via Options > Difficulty. After choosing difficulty settings you will be prompted to enter some personal information about your character, such as name, surname, age and gender; along with the option to skip the intro cutscene when starting a game.

=== Entering the Game ===

[[File:OMarket.jpg|200px|thumb|left|O-Market]]

Your main task for the first night is to ~~basically~~ survive ~~and~~ for that you will need money. There are many ways to earn ~~some Open Sewer Coins~~, but the easiest one is to do some bottle recycling. Right in front of the border inspection building you will see a couple of people, you may speak with them and they will give you a couple of quests along with some valuable information. O-Market is the first obvious place where you can get some precious money for those bottles and there is some food and drinks for you too. It's located just down the starting street. Bottle recycling is also a great way to explore Obenseuer! Keep in mind that dumpsters and trash bins are a valuable source of bottles and other stuff, check them regularly as all items in the game ~~are~~ randomly ~~respawning~~ from time to time. Avoid dangerous places such as canals, ~~don't~~ forget to watch your stats and you~~'ll~~ be fine.

== Managing Your Tenement ==

Your tenement can become your main source of income and your base of operations, but you need to put some money and resources into it first. It would be wise to start with examining and preparing apartments to move in first tenants, leaving renovation of your own apartment for later while you safely sleep at the Hostel~~, some~~ people are desperate enough that a simple upgrade of Makeshift Walls will meet their requirements, some may require additional bathroom or heating first. The most basic Makeshift Walls require 30 Planks, 30 Nails, 15 Scrap Metal, 4 Tape and 2 Tarps with an initial payment of 2000 OC and a final payment of 75 RM, may sound like a lot for the start, but collecting bottles, helping at the farm and selling unnecessary for now items will help you gather funds for the first upgrades. Materials can be found all over the place or bought at Hardware stall or One Stop Shop, you can also manufacture some yourself, like the planks made using a Sawbuck or a Table Saw. It is worth finding out what requirements people have, as the amount of apartments is limited and there is a lot of renovations to complete, so a lot of planning is advised and will be helpful.
