In third person, the player controls Stranger when travelling long distance, platform jumping, rope climbing, and melee combat; and in first person, ranged weapons are used. Enemies can be approached face-to-face, or by hiding out of enemy sight (as indicated on screen) and luring foes from or toward the player. Once enemies are encountered, they can be killed or stunned; live captives earn the greater reward. Upon an attempted capture, Stranger is unable to perform other actions and thus is vulnerable. The player has two status bars: health and stamina.

When damage is taken, the health bar drops; if it fully depletes, it will result in the death of Stranger. Stamina drops when the player performs actions like melee attacks or falls from a great height. While it refills itself over time, it can be used to shake off health-bar damage; thus healing the player, but draining the stamina quicker.

Sekto believes that the Stranger knows where the Steef are hiding, and hires an outlaw named D.

Caste Raider to interrogate him. During the interrogation, Raider discovers that the Stranger is a Steef.

After this revelation, the Stranger escapes to the Grubbs' village.
