Learning the controls in R.E.P.O. is the difference between making money and getting caught by the Taxman. Here’s a simple breakdown of how to move, grab, and interact with the world.
Movement
W / A / S / D – Move forward, left, back, and right.
Spacebar – Jump. Sometimes useful, mostly just fun.
Control (Toggle or Hold) – Crouch. Helps with stealth, turns off your flashlight automatically.
Shift (Toggle or Hold) – Sprint. Burns stamina fast, but worth upgrading early.
Q – Tumble. Think of it as "falling with style."
Grabbing and Handling Items
Left-Click – Grab items. Some can be used with E, others need careful handling.
Right-Click – Rotate held items.
Mouse Scroll (Up) – Push items, carts, or valuables away.
Mouse Scroll (Down) – Pull items, carts, or valuables toward you.
Other Actions
