Before you start: special-run caution
Planning a no-manual-save trophy run? PowerPyx says Reject The Help allows the opening required phone sequence, but forbids later manual saves. Read its trophy guidance before using a phone. Kingy has not tested whether canceling a later save menu or reloading restores eligibility.

You choose how much to reveal
A nudge or the answer.
Choose a phone-location hint, an autosave explanation, or the saving steps. For a no-manual-save run, read the caution above before dialing.
Find a save pointAn early location hint without the phone number.
Find the first save point
Look beside the first Town Square phone booth for the Your Local Services flyer. Its entries include one specifically about saving. This is an early-game hint; the dialing instructions stay in their own reveal.

Explain autosavesReported slots and checkpoint limits.
Manual saves and autosaves
PowerPyx lists one autosave slot and 20 manual slots. It reports autosaves around objectives and chapter progress, with longer gaps during town exploration. A fresh pickup alone is not evidence that your progress was saved.

For an ordinary run, use an unused manual slot if one is available. Before accepting an overwrite, check which existing save it will replace. Keep a separate record of the slot and your current objective; this is Kingy’s precaution, not a tested menu walkthrough.

- Kingy guidance
After saving, inspect the entry before you leave the game. Check any displayed time or progress information against the session you intended to preserve. Kingy has not verified the completion message or menu sequence, so this guide cannot certify a save from the phone animation alone.

Reload checks and unresolved problems
PowerPyx says earlier chapters require loading an older save or starting a new playthrough; it reports no chapter select. Before loading, identify the entry you intended to keep. Loading older progress may discard your unsaved session; preserve it first unless your special-run rules prohibit saving.

This is a suggested check, not a reproduced fix. No save-corruption or lost-save recovery procedure is established.
