Introduction
In late November 1986, Ryo Hazuki came home and witnessed his father's death at the hands of an ominous man named Lan Di. You assume the role of Ryo Hazuki on his quest to uncover the truth behind his father's death and to understand the meaning behind the mysterious mirror that Lan Di so desperately seeks. Ryo must explore neighboring towns and the local harbor to search for clues, which lead him to cryptic artifacts, dangerous gangs, and wise mentors.

Shenmue is an adventure game like no other. Time passes quickly as you play, and more than 200 characters go about their daily lives. It's up to you to uncover their secrets and hopefully the secrets behind Lan Di and your father's untimely death. Shenmue features several different game styles, including exploration, quick timer events, and free-battle mode. Strategies for each game mode are covered in this extensive game guide, and you will also find a complete walk-through of Shenmue's engrossing storyline.

Chapter 1: General Strategies

This section includes tips on getting the most out of Shenmue, which isn't always about sticking with the main storyline. Here you will learn how to proceed through Shenmue's magnificent world, get tips on quick timer events and free battles, and receive suggestions on how to enhance your overall experience.

How to Dive In

The world of Shenmue is constantly moving. This isn't your normal adventure game where events happen at the same moment each time. People aren't always standing in the same place, and it's not always sunny out. The game begins in late November, and days continue to pass until you've completed the game, which could be as early as pre-Christmas or as late as... well, there may not be an end! The main point is this: Don't feel like you need to rush through the events in Shenmue.

There's no harm in taking your time with the game's main storyline. If you don't feel like hunting for a job or following up on the latest clue, don't! Enjoy the sights and sounds of Shenmue's environment. Increase your material possessions and trinkets through purchases and contests, and enjoy a game of darts at the local arcade. There is absolutely no pressure to move forward in the game. Sure it's possible to miss some optional cutscenes or events if you don't follow up quickly. However, main storyline events and key occurrences can't be missed. There is no rush to witness them, because they will be there for you when you're ready. Enjoy Shenmue by taking your time and experiencing each and every moment, place, and conversation within the gameworld.

Quick Timer Events

Quick timer events, or QTEs, are interspersed throughout Shenmue and take place during heavy action sequences. They require quick reaction on your part to command Ryo on his next maneuver. A button (or direction) will appear on the screen, and you must press the corresponding key on your controller within an extremely short period of time (typically under a second or two). If you miss the button or press the wrong button, Ryo may suffer.

Failing QTEs isn't disastrous. There's no way to completely ruin Ryo and keep him from finishing his quest. However, you will likely see alternate events during the QTE if you miss certain buttons or directions. And if you foul up too much, you may have to retry the whole event. QTEs are all about quick reaction time. When the action music starts during a cutscene, prepare yourself. The command can be any direction (though usually left or right on the directional pad), the A button, or the B button. Place your fingers within reach of all and get ready to press the required button.

All QTEs are described in the walk-through section of this game guide. You can also practice QTEs inside the Game You Arcade in Dobuita. Just play the boxing or other QTE game that requires you to match onscreen button requests by pressing the corresponding button on your controller. If you can succeed at these, you're well on your way to mastering Shenmue's quick timer events.
