Your first run: what to expect

What a R.E.P.O. run actually contains, in the order you meet it, based only on behaviour the game's own files establish.

Applies to

0.4.0, read from the copy of the game this site was built from (see the sources page)

Before you start

• A fresh run, solo or with a crew
• A level you can walk around

Steps

1. Treat every monster as a different problem rather than one enemy type.
   the game defines several distinct monsters with their own behaviour
2. Find the extraction point before you fill your hands.
   extraction happens at tracked points on the level
3. Bank an extraction before you push deeper into the level.
   the game records completed extractions, so finishing one is progress

Common mistakes

• Dealing with every monster the same way.
• Carrying valuables carelessly: they are physics objects whose behaviour the game defines per item.
• Pushing deeper without completing an extraction first.
