Basics / Movement / Inventory / Save
A and D walk left and right on the screen.

S and W will appear when you can walk in/out of a doorway, stairs or ladder.
Didn't seem to matter which button i pressed regardless of what the screen showed.

Space will be your inspect / interact / pickup item or you can click the icon in the right corner.


Inventory & Interaction

You can only hold 2 items at a time.

If you have the necessary item when you approach something it can interact with the right corner icon will turn green and you can just do the action using [Spacebar] or click the icon in the right corner.

The only manual activity is when combining two items to create another.

And some items do vanish after being used.. key, faucet handle, coin.


Save

The ghosts can kill you if you are not quick enough.

You can save your game at the light post beside the hospital.


And after the house, beside the well.


Ghosts & "Fighting"
Before a ghosts appears you can hear audible "creepy" noises or whistles.

Sometimes you will see them waiting in the shadow for you to linger to long or enter a room.
You can walk past then come back.


Sometimes you can be prepared for an attack as you walk through a door you will catch a glimse of this one waiting to pounce.


Sometimes as you start to interact with an object you will see a silhouette of an arm/hand.
If you stop interacting it will go away.


Fighting them off to save your life!

If you manage to get snagged by a ghost to avoid death it will either be pressing A / D quickly or a series of random keys (Q S W Z D E etc).

Cool can't wait.

Ah i gotcha. Well when I play I'll be sure to take notes for guide potential :) I did move it up on my backlog but still may be next weekend. Or as long as end of April when I know I have a week of no deadlines thus i'll have time to write a guide.

I know but they don't really say how to solve the puzzles like yours.
Dahl  [author] 3 Apr, 2020 @ 7:16am 
Just looked and it seems both of them have a text guide already.
Frio 2 is in english, but the other will need a translation unless you speak Russian.
Dahl  [author] 3 Apr, 2020 @ 7:12am 
Thanks so much.
Whenever I get around to playing if there isn't a guide already there's a high chance I would, as long as time allows for it.
