Flowchart (100%):
Here’s a quick overview of the 100% complete flowchart for “A New Home”.
Checkpoint: Welcome Home
- Join Todd: Simply follow after Todd, after leaving the car enter the house. You may want to press to refocus the camera on your objective.
Clean First Floor:
- Read “Android Power!”: Found on the kitchen table
- Read “Connecting the Dots”: Also found on the kitchen table
- Wash Dishes: Go to the kitchen, wash the dirty dishes in the sink (dishwasher is broken).
- Check Backyard: Go through the door in the kitchen to the room with the washing machine and then out to the backyard.
- Talk with Alice: Take down the clothes and you’ll see Alice joining you in the backyard. Talk to her.
- Rewash Clothes: Take the clothes back inside and put them in the washing machine.
- Find Red Ice: When Kara is about to put the washing powder in the washing machine, she will find the Red Ice (drugs).
- Enrage Todd: After Kara finds the drugs, Todd will storm in and tell her to stay out of his business, in a very threatening way.
- Disturb Todd: Stand in front of the TV and Todd will get mad and tell you to go away. You can do this on your way ot the Vacuum.
- Activate Vacuum: There’s a vacuum robot to the left of the TV, go activate it. It will clean the floor on its own.
–> Take out Trash: After the above steps are done, grab the trash bin in the kitchen. Use to scan for it, makes it easier to find. Then pick up the 3 pieces of trash in the first floor. Some on the kitchen counter, some on top of the dishwasher, some on the table in the living room where Todd is sitting. Again, use to scan for the trash that can be picked up. After picking up all trash, take it outside.
–> Ask to go upstairs: You’re all done on the first floor so report back to Todd and he’ll tell you to go upstairs now.
Checkpoint: Go Upstairs
Clean Second Floor:
- Clean Todd’s Room: this is the master bedroom, the first room after you go upstairs. Interact with everything there, make the bed, put the guitar in place, tidy up the shelves and papers. As usual, press to scan for all objects to interact with.
- Tidy Pills: Have Kara check the bottle of pills at the nightstand next to Todd’s bed.
- [CROSS CHAPTER IMPACT] Kara Sees Gun: As you clean Todd’s room, have Kara check the nightstand. There’s a gun inside. This might come in handy later if things get out of hand.
- Read: “Android QB”: Read the magazine collectible in Todd’s room on the cupboard by the door. Be sure to check both pages.
- Read: “Putting a Price”: Read the magazine collectible in Todd’s room on the cupboard by the door. Be sure to check both pages.
- Alice goes to her Room: After making Todd’s bed Alice will go to her room automatically. You can see her passing by in the hallway.
- Clean Toilet: After you’re done with Todd’s room, clean the toilet. It’s just across from Todd’s room by the staircase.
- Clean Bathroom: The bathroom is at the end of the hallway on the left side. Arrange the bottles in the bathtub, store the dirty clothes, and mop the floor.
- Clean Alice’s Room: Alice’s Room is at the end of the hallway, across from the bathroom. Make her bed.
- Ventilate Room: Open the window in Alice’s room.
- [CROSS CHAPTER IMPACT] Kara Discovers a Way Down: Opening the window unlocks a possible escape way for the future, if things take a turn for the worst.
- Ventilate Room: Open the window in Alice’s room.
Talk with Alice:
- Talk to Alice: You can only talk to Alice after having cleaned at least Todd’s room, the Bathroom and Alice’s Room. In Alice’s room you must also have read the book on the floor “Alice in Wonderland” and the books on her shelf between the bed and the door. If you can’t talk to Alice yet it means you missed a spot to clean.
- Alice gives Kara a Key: When speaking to Alice pick dialogues FRIENDLY, NAME KARA, INTERESTS?, SEEM QUIET. All of these make her like you and she now gives you a key. If you intentionally want to start things off on the wrong foot, pick the exact opposite questions and she’ll dislike you.
- Open Alice’s Box: With Alice’s key in hand, go open her box which is in her room, on the cupboard next to the door. After you finish talking to Alice the camera will be centered on the box automatically. Of course you can scan with if the location is unclear. Open the box and look through all the items inside.
Finished Cleaning
All done! Go back downstairs and watch the resulting cutscene. This concludes the A New Home chapter.

Hi!
I’m trying to get Alice to dislike Kara because I saw it was the only way to get her to be destroyed in the kitchen by Todd. I’ve played “New Home” and “Stormy Night” like 40 times and I still can’t unlock that ending… Anyone has a solution for me?
Nana says
Is your difficulty on expert? Because casual makes it hard to get bad endings.
Traci says
To get Kara destroyed in the kitchen you must first lose the fight upstairs and encounter the KNEE, SHIELD, GRAB options and then fail the fight in the kitchen. If you win the fight upstairs you will get the KNEE, SHIELD, GRAB options in the kitchen and preventing Kara for being destroyed
FFlinders says
Does anyone know what the look points mean for the cranes and stuff outside?
CrucibleDanforth says
How to have Alice not like you! For a New Home
Only do the urgent tasks! Don’t do the optional ones. (Especially downstairs)
Report to Todd and head upstairs. Clean all of Todd’s room, then head straight over to Alice’s room (no need to do the bathrooms if you don’t want to, but I won’t affect anything).
Once you are in Alice’s room, don’t look at her book or anything. But make her bed and ventilate the room. Then kneel to talk to her. Once you kneel, choose factual. Nothing will happen (but she won’t like you yet.) then chose seem quiet. Nothing will happen. Then chose mother? She won’t like you. Then leave her alone. She won’t give you the key and will be distant!
I hope this helps.
Tony T says
That DID help. I know its been a while and you probably wont ever know I typed this but anyway, THANKS! : )

Hamid says
Wow I just found and played this game, well have started playing anyway. Magnificent graphic and pleasant surroundings. Can’t open the window in Alice’s room, but reading the responses I gather there is so much more I have to do in the house yet. Even though I’d like to get on with other characters, rather male ones and stop cleaning house for God’s sake. But makes time fly.
Ratbert says
When talking to ALICE outside in the backyard, if you choose GAME, you can boost her relationship with Kara. All other options don’t seem to have any positive or negative effect.
However, if you only get to pick TWO options, before Alice leaves back into the house, so make sure to choose GAME at least once.
