8 itemsAbout the Game
In "Asylum of the Forsaken," you step into the shoes of Nathan Scott, an investigative journalist whose mission is to photograph five missing people within the eerie and abandoned Ravenwood Asylum. The asylum is not only home to dark secrets but also to a terrifying monster that roams its decaying halls, constantly hunting you down. Your only tools for survival are your wits, your camera, and your ability to solve a series of intricate puzzles.
Exploration and Survival:
As you explore the asylum, you'll need to find keys to unlock doors that lead to the missing people. Each area you enter could be your last, as the monster relentlessly pursues you. Stay quiet, stay hidden, and choose your paths carefully—one wrong move, and you could become another lost soul within Ravenwood's walls.
Puzzles:
To uncover the truth behind "Project Insight" and escape the asylum, you'll need to solve four challenging puzzles:
Safe Code Puzzle: Find and decipher clues scattered throughout the asylum to unlock a safe containing vital information. The correct code is hidden within the environment, so keep your eyes peeled for anything that seems out of place.
Library Puzzle: In the darkened library, you must identify and pull the correct combination of books from the shelves. This puzzle requires keen observation and memory as you uncover the hidden sequence that will unlock the next area.
Lever Sequence Puzzle: Deep within the asylum, you'll encounter a room with four levers. To progress, you must pull the levers in the correct sequence, piecing together clues from your surroundings to determine the proper order.
Electricity Panel Puzzle: In the most intense puzzle, you'll face an electricity panel where timing is crucial. You must press buttons in precise intervals to restore power to specific areas of the asylum, but be careful—one mistake could alert the lurking monster to your presence.
Stealth and Evasion:
The monster in the asylum is relentless, and direct confrontation is not an option. You'll need to use stealth to avoid detection, hide in shadows, and use distractions to lead the creature away from your path. Every encounter with the monster is a test of your nerves and quick thinking.
Photographic Evidence:
Your primary objective is to document the presence of the missing people with your camera. However, capturing evidence is risky, as the flash or the sound of your camera could attract the monster. Choose your moments wisely, and ensure you’ve found a safe hiding spot before snapping that critical shot.
