Quick start

Five steps from the lobby to your first clean escape.

  1. 1

    Join a lobby and pick a Child

    Open the Children panel in the starting area before the round locks. Free Lori is enough to learn movement; Spy and Pincat come online once you have coins. Read the beginner guide first.

  2. 2

    Learn the TV minigame

    Children win by restoring CRT televisions, not by looping forever. Click the orbs, respect the three-miss rule, and never tunnel a red TV while the Nightmare is on you. Full steps live in how to restore TVs.

  3. 3

    Memorize one map's vents

    Hotel spawns most often. School, Daycare, Hospital, and Orphanage rotate in. Prone with Ctrl through tight gaps and hide with E. Map notes are on the maps guide.

  4. 4

    Spend coins on a role, not a skin

    Buy support or sentinel tools before cosmetics. Compare prices and abilities on the Children roster and the Children tier list.

  5. 5

    Queue Nightmare with a plan

    Camping is penalized. Patrol unfinished TVs, drop Mind Trap on common routes, and save Unleash for grouped repairs. Killer fundamentals are in how to play Nightmare.
