WALKTHROUGH - SPOILERS

Just to help anyone getting stuck

  1. Insert the VHS into the player to start the game and read the instructions
  2. Make sure to keep the tape rewound so you don’t die
  3. Take the key from the kitchen, it only appears while on the tv screen
  4. Unlock the locked door on the right side of the house
  5. Collect the Effigy from the closet, candles from the bathroom, and gray book from the kitchen. Place them on the pentagram in front of the TV
  6. Next you need to make a concoction, take the pot from the hat stand and place it on the stove
  7. Add Salt from the kitchen and Grave Dirt and Belladonna from the closet in the study
  8. Once this is done take the knife from the closet in the right hallway and interact with the cutting board
  9. Place the finger in the pot, and take the pot to the pentagram
  10. You win once all steps have been completed

Oh my.... that was really scary guys. This is a great game, congratulations! I mean, lucky it's still day time but if I was playing during the night I think that would be soooo creepy. Well done!!

I love the concept and the innovative game mechanic. I got scared by the creeper with the peepers even when I know where they were. Couldn't have figured out the solution without the content warning though. Maybe some more hints are needed in the game. I also agree that the rewinding the tape was a bit too slow. The game has great atmosphere and was genuinely suspenseful. Good job!

Love that the content warning actually works as a hint

Cute mechanic! I only wish the VHS re-wound a lil bit faster, but I can understand how it was decided to make it slower for the sake of the game.

Thanks a lot for playing! hopefully the rewinding wasn't too annoying

We've fixed the issue with the TV screen not working and added a list of known issues to the itch page.

not bad..................but quite frankly, i didn't understand why i died. The build up was good though. Could do with some hints on what to do to get through the level.

Thanks for giving it a shot. Theres supposed to be a video on the TV when you put the tape in but looks like something broke at the last minute. We're working on a fix, now.
