Can we stop the game and come back to it later?
Technically it is possible, but we encourage you to play the game in one session. Doing so will allow you to get more immersed in the atmosphere. The Cryptic Killer will be defeated sooner, and you will be able to celebrate foiling their plans. If you do need a break, the code you used to start the game will return you to the level that you stopped playing on.
The same applies if you lose your internet connection: once you're back online, use your code to resume the game where you left off.
