1. A Brand New Location: The Abandoned Shoreline Pool
For the first time, players can explore the derelict pool area on the outskirts of town. This location is not just a scenic backdrop; it serves as the hub for several key events. The art team has outdone themselves with the heatwave effects, mirage-like distortions, and overgrown vegetation reclaiming the concrete. More importantly, this location houses a new mini-game involving cleaning and restoring a portion of the pool, which unlocks a major scene with a secondary character.
