Edge of Extinction Walkthrough

**Warning!**

If you haven't read/caught up or completed the show you are reading the walkthrough about, please be aware of spoilers.

The Edge of Extinction walkthrough exists to help others make the right choices for their game. Choices you make lead to different paths and ! achievements leading to several different outcomes. This walkthrough is incomplete as some choices have not yet been explored. If you have anything to contribute to it, please do so.

Note: If it says "No effect" after an option, it means that this option does not trigger an **immediate achievement**. If it triggers a different path, the "No effect" can be replaced with "Path A/B/C".

If there is no info after an option, it means that that option has not yet been explored.

This show uses the relationship system similar to The X Files one. Which means that depending on your actions, choices, and relationship status, characters will react differently to your presence.

**NOTE: Before you start this show, you should know that your character might die in the first minutes of the game. EVERY CHOICE MATTERS! Pick carefully.**
