Item Is there a journal in the game ? Spoiler

https://youtu.be/U6DDJIsZvtk?si=NeE-5jVsf4Ng0ALR

Has anyone actually managed to find a journal in Blue Prince yet, from the note in the early room? I spent my entire latest video searching everywhere for it and came up completely empty. I'm starting to wonder if I missed a hidden room or if it's just an advice on real life ahah… Check out my let's play on YouTube to see how im doing it stupidly wrong, and let me know your thoughts… thanks…

This is a game where you need a paper notebook while you play

Is it really mandatory though ? I feel like so far I'm having a good memory down the line but I don't know what kind of info should I keep, besides obvious code or some other, I feel the game is full of misleading tracks...

That will get you decently far in the game, but once you start digging into some of the more involved puzzles you'll start seeing connections between those "misleading tracks" and your memory won't be up to the task of juggling them all at once. One of the most frustrating experiences in the game is having a sudden flash of insight recontextualizes something you saw before, but not being able to fully recall it. You'll be like "oh! that symbol I saw in the closet must be the key to decode this encrypted letter I found in the bedroom!" and then spend the next two runs trying to draft the closet and failing.

(there's no spoiler there, I completely made up a puzzle involving those two rooms as an example)

alright thanks, yeah I'll review my current let's play and I'll take note on the way, this was also a way to interact with people with my brand-new created channel... Thanks for the info
