Enemies

Lying Figure

Spits acid at range and crawls aggressively when knocked down; finish them off with melee stomps.

Mannequin

Hides motionless behind corners and doorways to ambush James; listen for rustling or flashlight reactions.

Tips

Mannequins frequently play dead or stay completely still in dark corners; sweep your flashlight around rooms before walking in blindly.
Break walls with cracks marked in white plaster using your wooden plank or pipe to reveal hidden pathways between rooms.
Read the coin puzzle poem carefully on your selected puzzle difficulty, as the slot positions and riddles change between Standard and Hard.
