Second-screen setup: using a guide while you play

Most completion players have a second screen nearby. Set it up well and checking a guide takes seconds. Set it up badly and you'll be fumbling while the game waits.

Phone

Best for: quick lookups and ticking off items.

• Use a stand so the screen is visible without picking it up.
• Turn on auto-rotate lock and raise the screen timeout while you play.
• Bookmark the pages you'll use most, such as your tracker and current guide.

Tablet

Best for: following long walkthroughs and checklists.

• The larger screen shows a full checklist without scrolling.
• Split-screen mode can show a guide and your tracker side by side.

PC monitor or laptop

Best for: planning sessions and detailed note-taking.

• Snap a browser window to one side of the screen.
• Keyboard notes are much faster than typing on a phone.

Reduce friction

• Lower the second screen's brightness so it doesn't pull your eyes away.
• Turn off notifications while you play.
• Keep one tab per purpose: guide, tracker and notes.

Neon Arcade is designed mobile-first so that search, trackers and guides work well on a phone beside your TV.
