Danganronpa V3 Class Trial 1 Guide - spoiler-free walkthrough

Danganronpa remains one of the most twisting and turning game stories going, and Danganronpa V3: Killing Harmony is no exception to that. Its story is half the joy, and though many get a lot out of being forced to make choices and unravel the game's storyline, that isn't for everyone. Some would rather have a helping hand to see the story - and that's fair enough.

Danganronpa V3's very first class trial is very unique and interesting for a few reasons - but we're not going to go into that here. This is a spoiler-free walkthrough for that first class trial - or as close to spoiler-free as we can get it.

To be clear, that means we're going to tell you what options to select, answers to questions and how to use your truth bullets, but we're not going to detail any plot points unless absolutely necessary. This removes deduction from the game, but if you find yourself stuck, this is an option. Proceed on at your own peril, however.
