Walkthrough
- You will start this chapter with a fight against 3 wolves. As long as you keep them in your sights, this should be an easy battle. (Keep in mind you did just learn that you can stun them with the flare gun, but I wouldn’t recommend using ammo in this fight, try to stick to melee.)
- Something to note: A telephone booth will randomly appear and disappear in different areas of the map. If you do see it, make sure you go inside, read and take the Newspaper and take the Strange Amulet and Flare ammo. Leave the Dead Bird here for now, you will be coming back here in the future.
- -From the starting location, to the right there is a river. Follow it upstream to an altar. From the altar, read the Page and take the Strange Note .
ENIGMA:
- Place the Strange Amulet on the Altar, where the Documents are.
- Now, you will need 4 pieces of paper in order to start a fire at the altar. We already have the Strange Note and the Newspaper. Leave some items here to make space in your inventory. Don’t worry, you won’t need them yet and this won’t take long.
- Opposite the altar is a cliff with a blood trail leading to a Doctor’s Bag. We will loot the bag properly in just a bit. For now, read the X-ray and take the Test Results and the Doctor’s Note.
- Note: While in the forest area near the Doctor Bag cliff, another wolf will spawn. Make sure it doesn’t take you by surprise.
- Burn all 4 documents with the Burning Flare from the beginning of the level and then use them all in the Altar bowl. [!] Make sure to retrieve your items at this point, shells especially.
- Once the statue above opens its arms and becomes interactable, take the coins from it.
- BOSS FIGHT, kinda. Once you take the coins, a battle with a big white wolf begins.
ENIGMA:
- During the Boss fight, lure the wolf into the river of blood.
- Use the shotgun on the wolf for easy damage and once it turns to stone and spawns 2-3 black wolves, switch to melee and take care of them. Repeat 2 more times and the fight is won.
ACHIEVEMENT:
- You get an achievement for defeating the wolf.
- If your inventory is full, leave the coins in the Telephone booth.
- Loot the body of the white wolf. Read the Note from the Sovereign and take the Gate key and the Shells.
- Return to the gate near the starting location. Use the Gate Key to open the gate. Go inside and take the Ammo, Tumbler and the Electrical Tape from the Metal Cabinet. Also read the Strange Note.
ACHIEVEMENT:
- Call the Emergency hotline before fixing the billboard. The number you need to call is 7010 8412. You can call it by entering a coin first and then dialing the number.
- Back on the main road, look for a Billboard with a malfunctioning light. At the base of it is a Switchboard. Interact with it, read the Warning and take the Shells. We’ll fix the billboard anyway so place the Tumbler in the Switch Slot and turn the power off. Fix the cable using the Electrical tape and then switch the power back on.
- From the billboard, follow the big rock wall to your left around until you find a junk pile you can interact with. Take the Key from it.
- Go back to the Altar and take the Scissors.
- Head to the Doctor Bag again. Read the other document inside if you haven’t, take the First Aid Kit, use the scissors to open the locked part of the doctor bag and then take the ammo from it. Also take the hairpin from the coat.
ENIGMA:
- Return to the Telephone Booth and call Lisa by entering a coin in the Coin Acceptor and inputting her number. Her number is on the torn Page document found at the Altar: 7010 5956
- Call the Emergency hotline at 7010 8412 by entering a coin in the Coin Acceptor and inputting the number.
- Use the Hairpin on the Trunk of the Car to open it. Take the Flare, replace the Bat with the Strange Bat and read the Note from Lisa and the Note to Myself.
ACHIEVEMENT:
- You get an achievement for picking up the Strange Bat.
- Make sure you have the Key and Dead Bird in your inventory before finishing the chapter.

Walkthrough
ENIGMA: – Head around the back of the building, where you will see a black mural on the wall. Simpy throw a stone at it.
- Go to the ladder, marked by yellow stripes. Jump and melee attack the ladder to drop it. Climb on the roof, and drop down through the hatch to enter the building.
- Unlock the side door by interacting with the latch.
- Search the boxes and take the Flare and the Coin. Also read the Crumpled Note and the Photo from Wallet.
- Use the Coin on the Newspaper Machine. Read the Newspaper and the Page From the Waiter’s Note.
- Take a look on the side of the Gas Station for the Street Number – 451. Open the Cabinet in the Back Room with this code. Take the Shells.
- Take a brick from the bucket in the Trash. Use the brick to open the red box. Backtrack to the trash and take the Fire Extinguisher Valve and combine it with the Fire Extinguisher in the Red Box. Take it with you.
- Use the Fire Extinguisher on the burning car to retrieve the device. Some of the fog has lifted. Now you also have the hand device that allows you to read and make sense of the various alien writings around the map. These are optional, as this guide will cover what you have to do.
- Interact with the Driver Seat and read the Note to Myself and the Burnt Photo of Lisa
ACHIEVEMENT:
- Reading these notes, provided you read all previous ones, should give you an achievement.
- Open the trunk of the car, open the package and read the Mystic Note. Take the shovel.
- Go to the grave behind the gas station and use the shovel to dig it open. Careful, a wolf will attack you after you do.
ENIGMA:
- Finally, you can get rid of the dead bird. Place it in the grave alongside the cat items.
- Take the Gas Station key from the Grave envelope. Use it to open the Gas Station shutter and go inside.
ACHIEVEMENT:
- Use the key from Part 2 to open the Cash Register. Take the two coins from inside.
- Go outside to the trash. Empty the brick bucket and take the bucket. Fill it up with water at the Ice box. Use the Bucket to water the plant on the diner table inside the Gas Station.
- You can use the switcher to take you back to the past. Take a look at the clock when you do. Return to the present, interact with the clock and set the time to 10:05.
- Use a coin on the Jukebox to unlock it. You can also use the other coin on the vending machine to get an item (possibly random, for me it was a Flare).
- Take the MaiKu – Bullet record and the Copper String from the Back Room Cabinet. Use the Copper String on the Kite on the roof of the building, stuck in the big letters.
- Place the record in the Jukebox and press the fourth button to play it.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
- After this point I will not be listing the documents anymore as no other achievements seem to be linked to them. They are not too hard to find with a bit of exploration. This is also around the point I stopped updating the “Items found” segment, as there were simply too many things to list.
- Start building the molotov: Get the champagne bottle from the ice box and use it on the Gas Pump. Get the fabric from the trunk after opening the package and use it on the bottle at the gas pump. Now we need a light..
- Grab the rope from the trunk, the rubber glove from the cabinet (or grave) and head towards the well, directly opposite the gas station, on the other side of the road. Follow the lamps. Use the rope on the well and head down.
- Use the gloves to retrieve the spear (I removed the flare gun and the flares as I was not using them) and prepare for a fight, as you will be attacked by a spirit(?).
- Interact with the puddle next to where you found the spear and take the lighter.
- Leave this area to return to the Gas Station.
- Use the lighter with the Bottle at the Gas Pump to finally build your Molotov Cocktail.
- Leave the bat somewhere, preferably Trunk of the car, to make space for the Molotov. Pick up the Molotov. Also pick up the Part of the Key while you are at the trunk.
- Make your way towards the gates, where you will fight another spirit. Then, interact with the gate and place the key Parts in the Gate Lock and use your Spear on it when ready.
- BOSS FIGHT. Dodge her ball attacks and then knock back her balls to deplete her shield.
ENIGMA:
- Throw the molotov at her when she’s down.
- Do this two more times, throwing the spear at her when she’s down and you will finish the fight.
- Pick up the Cockroach poison from the trash. Use this on the flesh on the gate to unlock the 3 holes. Pick up the Sewing Kit from the third hole.
- Return to the Kite on the Roof. Be careful, as a spirit will be waiting for you. Fix the Kite with the Sewing Kit. Take the kite with you.
- Place the Kite on the spear, at the gate. Back away and go to your car as you will need to hurry up and escape once the gate is blown up.
