Should Broken Age acts 1 and 2 be played simultaneously?
I've just started Broken Age, and am in the middle of finding the knife in act 1. When I was looking for useful things in my inventory, I clicked on the picture of a boy, and this took me to a whole other story, which I now know is act 2.
Now, am I supposed to play acts 1 and 2 simultaneously in order to understand the story (apparently, there are links between the two acts, which are to be revealed later), or am I supposed to play one act first?
Best Answer
If their website is to be believed, Act II has not yet been released.
You can switch between the two playable characters/stories freely without having to fear not to understand everything, both of these stories (Shay's and Vella's) belong to Act I.

Answer 2
The game is designed such that you can play the stories simultaneously or back to back. There are a few links between the stories, but it doesn't matter (gameplay wise) what order these links are revealed.
