Gamezebo’s Depths of Betrayal walkthrough provides you with detailed images, tips, and latest information on how to do your best in the game.

Getting Started

  • Once you load Depths of Betrayal, it will start out with an introduction story line. You can click at the bottom center of the screen to skip this. It plays from the start every time you load the game.
  • The game will save your progress at the point of your exit. If you do not properly shut the game down it may go back to the beginning of the chapter.
  • When prompted enter your name and the game will save under this name. You can have multiple games at once if each is saved under different names.
Depths of Betrayal
  • Setting Options – Click on “Options” to set the music and sound effect volumes, adjust widescreen mode, and set custom cursor feature. Once you have your settings adjusted, click on the “Difficulty” button at the bottom of menu.
Depths of Betrayal
  • Difficulty Levels – choose from the two game modes offered;
  • Casual Mode – Here you can play at your own pace and “Hint” buttons and “Skip Puzzle” buttons recharge very fast. You will see a sparkle effect to help you find the next item and these appear much faster in casual mode.
  • Advanced Mode – This is for the experience player that doesn’t need much help. It takes much longer for the “Hint” and “Skip Puzzle” buttons to recharge and several of the screens will not even offer you a hint option. This is a very challenging mode.
  • You cannot toggle between advanced and casual mode. Once you make your decision you can only start a new game to change it.
  • Extras – Under the “Extras” button you can see game concept art as well as beautiful wallpapers for your PC desktop.
  • Forums – Be sure to check the forums here at Gamezebo to connect with other members playing the game. Click on the button at the top of this page.

Game Elements

Depths of Betrayal
  • Here you will see a representation of a typical game screen.
  • A. Diary – Click on the book at the lower left corner and you will see a summary of your journey in the game. If any notes have been discovered the text is written here. There is also a list of things to do in case you get stuck.
  • B. Inventory area – As you find items they will be placed here until you are ready to use them. Simply click on them and the item will enlarge and stick to your cursor. Take it to the area you wish to use it and click to lock in the changes. Note – Be sure to use the side arrows to scroll through the items when it gets to the point where the area appears to be full. There is always more room if you use the scroll arrows.
  • C. Hints – At the bottom right next to the inventory area is the hint button. Click on it to use it and after you will see that the button is recharging. Based on your game mode this will be a fast or slow process. Once the button is ready for use again the word “Hint” will be showing again. (See “Using Hints” below for more specific details.)
  • D. Menu – Click on the upper right hand corner if you want to quit and save the game or pause it.
  • E. Object Circles – You will see a sparkling effect in various areas when you start a new location screen. When you see your cursor turn into a gold hand click and the object circles will appear. These are several small circles surrounding a large one. The smaller circles have grey images inside and these are the items you are to locate in the scene. Once you find an item click on it and bring it to the circle with the image and click again to lock in the changes. The circle with the image will now colorize to a brown background and lock in once placed correctly.
  • Red Object Circle – Each set of circles has a red circle. This item is related to items with the gear cursor. You must use one item on another to get this item. It could be combining two elements to make a third or using an item to effect another allowing you to find it. Once you have all of the items in the circles then you will have discovered the major item that will be shown inside the large circle. This item is critical as it will appear below in your inventory and will need to be used in another location to help you solve the chapter puzzles.
  • Note – There can be just one or possibly three or four of the object circle sets in a scene. You will need to search around the scene carefully to find them all and all the hidden objects associated with them.

Cursors

Depths of Betrayal

  • Cursors – There are several different cursors used in the game and it is important you know what each represents. The basic game cursor is silver and it will change when you move it over a hot spot.
  • Gold Hand – When you see the cursor change to a gold hand this means you can click on an item to pick it up and place it somewhere else. This could be to place a recently found item in one of the key circles, or to take it from inventory and use it on another item.
  • Gear – When the cursor changes to a gear this mean you will have to locate an item from your inventory at the bottom of the screen. (You will have had to find this item earlier) and place it on this item so that they will interact to either make a new item or reveal a new item in the game. Just remember gear items always require you to find another item to act upon it.
  • Roaming Eyeball – Whenever you see the cursor change to this roaming eyeball you can click on the area to zoom in for a closer look. Many times there are additional items hidden in these close up views.
  • Talk Bubble – When you see the square talk bubble icon replacing your cursor you can click on a person and have a dialogue with them. You will have to choose your response from at least two or three choices and may have to repeat until you give the desired response.
  • Red Cursor Triangle – Whenever you see this cursor it means you can move to a new location within the chapter. Each chapter has multiple scenes associated with it. These red cursors will point in the direction of the new location you can move to. Most are along the sides and bottom of the screen and also at doorways and windows. Be sure to look around for these areas. Note – If you use the hint button and see the sparkling effect in red instead of white this means you need to leave your current location and move to another to continue the game.

Using Hints

Depths of Betrayal

  • The hint button is located at the lower right corner of the game screen next to the inventory screen.
  • When you see the word “Hint” and the button is fully colorized you may use the hint button. When you click on it an area will highlight with a sparkling effect. It may simply show you where a hidden item is located or if your next step is to find an item and use it in another location or to affect another item you may see a sparkling line drawn from the first area to a second area showing you where to take it. Be sure to watch carefully as this happens fast and doesn’t last long.
  • Hints are given in a random order. Once a process has started the hint will give it priority when you request assistance.
  • Once you use a hint the button will begin to regenerate and you can see this as the button is now empty and you will see it filling up again as it regenerates.
  • The rate of regeneration and the time in between varies based on your game mode. Casual mode has a fairly fast regeneration rate and advanced mode has several minutes in between uses.
  • There is no penalty for using hints and you have an unlimited number of hints with only the time in between uses that will vary based on the game difficulty mode you have chosen.

Walkthrough

  • Here you will be given a step by step walkthrough of how to successfully play the game.
  • Note that there is no one set way to play the game and the steps shown here can be done in any order. All steps must be completed in any order to finish the chapter successfully. You may not leave out any steps but the order of the steps is up to you.
  • There are multiple hidden object scenes associated with each chapter and you will find that you frequently must go back and forth between scenes to look for items in one location that act upon items in another. Items will be labeled in the screen shots with numbers, letters and colors where appropriate to help you follow this guide.
  • Note – There will likely be one or more “fanned hidden object circles” in each scene. These circles contain images of the hidden objects you are to find. The images are grey in color and when you locate an object in the scene you will click on it and it will enlarge and stick to your cursor. Take it to the grey corresponding picture and click on it. If you are correct the item will disappear and the picture of it will colorize and have a brownish background to it. Once you locate all of the items on the Object circle including the red one, you will be rewarded with an item that will be placed at the bottom of the screen in your inventory area. These items are to be used in other locations in the scene such as keys to unlock doors or drawers, coins to put in machines, etc.
  • Game text hints – Click on items and you will see text hints at the top of the screen. These can be very useful when trying to figure out how one item affects another. If you still can’t figure it out then use your hint button.
  • Once you locate all of the hidden objects and use those in the scenes to reveal even more items, the chapter will be complete and the story line will take you to your next location.
  • There are seven chapters in the game. Once you complete the seven chapters you will unlock a bonus chapter. The bonus chapter is not included in this walkthrough.
  • This guide covers the game in casual mode. The puzzles and solutions are the same as advanced mode but you are given more hints with shorter wait times in casual mode.

Chapter 1 – Take the Train

  • Watch the storyline video and once the letter appears read through it. Once finished click on it to add it to your diary.
  • You will be asked if you want to participate in a brief tutorial. If you choose to use the tutorial arrows and text help will appear to get you started.
  • Your first objective is to open one of three object circles in the first location. One is to the far left, another in center and final one is to the right near the podium.
  • You can find these items in any order. Start by looking at the grey images and then looking for the obvious hidden items. Some will not be out in the open but behind or inside other items.
  • Note all the cursor changes you will see at this point.
  • If you see the roaming eyes you can click to get a closer look.
  • If you see a gear take note that these items will need another item from inventory to act upon it. Try to think about what that item might be.
  • There are three object circle sets in this first scene. You will have to locate eight hidden objects for it but they may be in adjacent scenes. Each circle set will be color coded to help you find the items needed.
  • Red Circles – Note the red circles in the object sets. The item in the red circle is an item that will be found in multiple steps.
  • Once all items in the circle set have been recovered you will be rewarded with an item that theoretically comes from the largest circle in the center of the circle set. This item is placed immediately in inventory at the bottom of the screen when you earn it. You will be able to use all items you locate in various locations and sometimes it is hard to tell how it will be used. You can use hints if you get stuck or use the solutions in this walkthrough.
  • You must find every hidden object, use it correctly and solve every puzzle in a chapter to progress to the next chapter.
