How to get more steps in Blue Prince
Half the battle in reaching Room 46 in Blue Prince is having enough steps to make it to the end. While running into dead ends is one thing, being a few steps away from unlocking your next room is an entirely separate challenge. Fortunately, you can get more steps with the right rooms. Every room you draft has a specific purpose, from making your journey slightly more difficult to giving helpful buffs and knowledge to carry over in future days. Here are some ways to get more steps in Blue Prince. How to get more steps in Blue Prince Unlocking bedrooms and shop rooms is the best way to gain more steps in Blue Prince. Each of the bedroom types works together to buff each other for extra steps, while shop rooms like the Kitchen sell food for coins. Bedrooms To start, here are some examples of bedrooms and their effects: Bedroom: Whenever you enter this room, gain two steps. Guest Bedroom: +10 steps Nursery: Whenever you draft a Bedroom, gain five steps. Bunk Room: This room counts as two Bedrooms Her Ladyship's Chamber: The next time you enter the Boudoir, gain 10 steps. The next time you enter the Walk-in Closet, gain three gems.

The earlier you draft the Nursery into the house, the sooner you can reap the benefits of other bedrooms. Similarly, while the Boudoir itself doesn't give any guaranteed benefits, Her Ladyship's Chamber guarantees you'll get an extra ten steps the next time you enter. You'll also get a nice gem bonus for the walk-in closet once you draft and enter it. Shops and the dining room Several rooms in Blue Prince can guarantee food spawns for various prices. The Pantry often gives a small food item like an apple or banana for a small step boost, while the Kitchen is a one-stop shop for purchasing food in exchange for coins. If you are in a pinch and need to buy your way through getting extra steps, it's a solid option. Like gems, keys, and coins, small food items can randomly spawn in most rooms. In particular, options like the Den, Parlor Room, and Billiard Room have solid odds of holding these items. While not guaranteed, the possibility alone is worth considering.

The Dining Room's meal gives you 20 base steps, with an extra 10 available if you also have the room specified on the main course's bonus. This bonus changes each time you draw the Dining Room. Combining these perks with bedrooms and small items you find around the house will make it much easier to backtrack if needed.
