Playing Guitar in Zaychik: The Correct String Order

Guitar Playing is an interactive scene in Polina's route in Zaychik. Polina attends a music class and has mastered a variety of instruments. Inviting Anton over, she offers to tutor him, introducing him to the arts.

To access this route you need to fight back against Semyon and twice refuse a treat at the end of episode four. When the protagonist becomes the school's hero, he can only agree to take Polina home. This guide will explain which strings to press to successfully perform the composition and how to get all the trophies in the minigame.

How to find out the string order

First, Polina plays the melody in its entirety, then plucks the strings and pauses briefly. After that, the girl carefully pulls one of them — you need to remember exactly this — and continue playing at an accelerated tempo until the next stop. The string order does not change from play to play.

How to play the guitar correctly in Episode 5

After listening to the teacher, Anton independently repeats the beginning of the melody and stops: at this point, the game prompts you to choose a number. If you make a mistake, Polina will give you another try.

The first melody

At the beginning of training, the order of strings is as follows:

1. Sixth.
2. Fourth.
3. Third.
4. The second.

Second melody

Continuing to play, Polina will add a few more chords, making the task more difficult:

1. The first.
2. Fifth
3. Sixth.
4. Fifth
5. The first.

The third melody

Finally, the longest and most varied sequence is used:

1. Third.
2. Fourth.
3. The second.
4. Sixth.
5. The first.
6. The second.

Guitar achievements in Zaychik

Depending on whether Polina succeeds in playing the guitar, Tiny Bunny awards one of four trophies:

• Davie504 — I managed to repeat the girl perfectly, without making any mistakes.
• "Bard" — the composition was completed, but with some inaccuracies.
• "Punk" — the sound of the song is deliberately spoiled by clicking on the wrong option.
• "The Talentless Man" - opens when you stop playing a musical instrument.

Anton's success in his new hobby has no impact on the further plot and is needed solely to add to the atmosphere and obtain all the trophies.
