    Chapter 2: Schoolchildren

    The game's first major enemy. Schoolchildren are living puppets that pause before attacking you. If they pounce on you, the game is over. They will always make you win in one fell swoop. They can be destroyed with one hit with any weapon. The trick is all in the timing.

    When a puppet child runs over you, wait for them to pause before they attack. Take a step towards them and swing your weapon to strike the dome dead. After a few exercises, you will know which range they will typically pause. If you stand still, your weapon will likely be out of range. You have to move towards them when they stop moving - they will still stop moving, even if you get close to them.

    School kids can be boring, but with a little practice you'll be able to shoot them perfectly in the head one at a time.

    Chapter 3: Creeping Hands


    Creeping hands are one of the toughest enemies in the game - until you learn how to beat them. Creeping hands can dodge your attacks. When you try to hit them, they jump sideways or backwards, then counterattack after a while. When they pull back, it means they're about to strike. Instead of directly charging you like schoolchildren, they will always stop just out of range of your gun.

    To make their fight easier - especially difficult when you have to fight two of them at the same time - do a simple sprint while holding a weapon and dodge their attacks. Unlike school kids, their lunge attack will miss if you move sideways. When they land to recover, you can hit them while they are stunned.

    Creeping hands take 3 hits to win. Don't touch them first. Flee or dodge, then attack when they run out. It makes those difficult enemies much, much easier.

    Chapter 3: Prosthetic patients

    Prosthetic patients are a different type of pain. These quivering monstrosities only come to life when they are in total darkness. You will have to use your flashlight to repel them. When a patient is near, the controls on your flashlight will change - your “Look” controls will become a rotate control. Instead of looking up and down, you will now rotate in a circle.

    This way you can move in one direction and face your flashlight in another. This makes it much easier to fight hordes of them. Sometimes a flash of light is enough to keep them frozen in place. Keep moving and don't run. Instead, move cautiously and let your light shine on anything that moves in the dark.

    Chapter 4: Audience Display

    Viewers are drawn to televisions. As long as a television is active in their area, they will stand still and watch it. They will only attack you if you get too close. Once you get the Remote item, try looking for other TVs you can turn on before you turn one off. If you turn off the TV, they will immediately come and pick you up. There is also no hiding place for them. They always know where you are immediately and their default movement speed is faster than your sprint.

    Like the patients, there is no way to kill them. Sometimes you'll find a way to turn them off permanently, but don't even try to fight back. They will kill you instantly if you enter their transmission range. To attract them with a single TV, use the remote control to turn it off and on. Once a TV is on, they will lose interest in you.
