Finding Duckie's whiskey sets a good first impression with him, helping you get the game's "good" ending. It's upstairs in the apartment, squeezed between the couch cushions. He and Gabe had the bottle last, so you'll need to find it. Part of Duckie's order is his usual: a particular brand of whiskey. You'll have time to do everything else afterwards. As soon as you get their order, just go straight to Jed before you forget. They will tell you what they want and then you need to tell Jed via a multiple-choice test.


The only tricky part of this is remembering Diane and Duckie's orders. As a server, you'll need to clear the backroom, take and remember two orders, and check in with people. In this instance, telling the truth and then impressing Jed with your performance is the best course of action. So you have the choice of supporting Gabe's lie or telling Jed the truth and admitting you have no experience. When Gabe needs to step out for medical attention, Jed will ask if you can step in to be a server for the bar, saying that Gabe told him that you have plenty of experience as a server. In order to set a positive first impression with Charlotte, it's important to be positive or ambivalent about how Alex feels about Haven. You have the choice of being positive, negative, or ambivalent. She'll take notice of Alex's star tattoo and eventually ask how Alex feels about Haven so far. When you finally meet Gabe's girlfriend, Charlotte, she'll strike up an (awkward) conversation with Alex, in an attempt to get to know you. When Gabe shows Alex his apartment, he'll eventually start playing air drums and invite Alex to pick up a broom to rock out with him on "guitar." You can join him or be a coward and just watch.ĭon't be a coward. But you do get brownie points with Ethan for keeping his secret and that's more important. But that's how cops think, and Alex ain't no snitch.Īnd beyond that: Your choice in this instance doesn't really matter-the overall story won't change depending on whether you blab or keep your mouth shut. It may seem like the right and responsible thing to do to tell your brother that his adopted son is planning to go visit a mine after dark. He'll ask you to keep his secret-later, his trust in you will be put to the test when you have the option of telling Gabe about Ethan's plans or keeping quiet. When you first meet Ethan, he'll tell you about his plans to sneak into Haven's old abandoned mine after dark. Being Riley's friend and someone she can trust will be important for later chapters. However, it's better to side with Riley in this debate as doing so will ensure you set the most positive first impression you can with her (similar to hugging Gabe at the start as opposed to shaking his hand). If you want to ensure your relationship with Gabe is as close as it can be, side with him. Riley will then ask you to be the tiebreaker. Riley thinks it's smarter to use flowery language to describe her weaknesses, like she "works too hard," while Gabe thinks it's better that she just be honest. When you first meet Riley, you'll learn that Gabe is helping her with an application essay. Neither choice has massive ramifications for the story (at least as far as we can tell) but hugging Gabe as opposed to shaking his hand will influence the two siblings' relationship to start on as positive a note as possible. Personally, we advise you to go for a hug. You'll be prompted with the choice of whether to shake Gabe's hand or give him a hug. Right at the start of True Colors, Alex will meet her brother again for the first time in years. Chapter 3: "Monster Or Mortal" WalkthroughĬhapter 1: Side A Walkthrough Meeting Gabe.Additionally, folks around Alex-upon learning of her Empathy-will regard her as a superhero, but it's up to you to decide whether she ultimately views her abilities as a gift or a curse. If you constantly make decisions that have Alex look down upon her incredible musical talent, she won't as easily regard making music as a career choice. Notably, whether she loves music and herself.

You'll make additional decisions beyond these ones, but they don't have as significant an impact.Īs an additional note, though we don't go into detail about all of them here (we'll cover the major ones), there are certain choices that can influence how Alex perceives herself. Below, we go over all the choices that are important to True Colors Chapter 1: Side A. Most of these choices are mandatory but a few are optional and easily missable. Like previous games in the series, Life is Strange: True Colors will regularly present you with choices that will influence the outcome of the story.
