With your first potential death happening in the ♎previous scene, the game becomes markedly differ♊ent as you begin losing characters. With a lot of exploring left to do now that things are beginning to get real, we’ve got you with our guide to starting Act Two off strong.

The Devil in Me features dozens of paths that 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:branch based on your decision – it’s kind of a hallmark of 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:The Dark Pictures Anthology.

We acknowledge that we might miss a small deꦑtail or two along the way, but we’ve played the game a few times through to bring you the most complete coveraꦬge we can.

Everyone In Erin’s Room

If 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Erin died during Blackout, the last scene youℱ just played, then your game is going to begin to look a lot different, now that you’re down a🍨 person.

The story does reconvene on itself in this chapter after the deviation that stems from your decisions with Erin, so we’ll break it down for you before movingꦐ on to explore the 𒅌chapter.

If Erin Lived Last Scene

If Erin is still alive, the group gathers in her room to talk about what happened. The conversation is tense and not everyone believes Erin when she says she wasn’t alone.

The group splinters, with Charlie and Jamie going to look for Du’Met and Kate and Mark packing up their belongi🦄ngs. Erin asks them to leave the door open when they leave, just in case.

If Erin Died Last Scene

Jamie begins the scene in a panic that Erin is missing in action. The progression flows just like before, with Charlie and Jamie splitting off to look around while Kat♏e and Mark begin pa꧂cking.

Exploring With Charlie And Jamie

Regardless of what happened with Erin, Charlie and Jamie split off from the group to go look around the hotel trying to find Du’Met (and Erin, if she died). You begin this section on the second floor.

If you missed some of the secrets during either 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:the Cigarettes scene as Charlie or 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:in Staff Only as Jamieಌ, you’re still able to grab them now before moving on.

One of 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Du’Met’s business cards is in one of the hallways, if you’re collecting them. If you missed the Cured 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:picture premonition in the lobby, you canཧ still find it during this scene as well.

Additionally, the Hotel Guest Book, the Welcome Postcard, and the Morello Family Invitation are still on the desk upstairs.

However, when Charlie and Jamie return to the lobby, they find that the lobby has been totally trashed. What they find the most peculiar about this is the t𝓰rail of still-wet blood leading through a door on the left. Charlie brushes this off, but if Erin is dead, Jamie will begin to wonder if it’s her blood.

Either way, going into the door to follow the blood trail continues the story, so be sure you’re totall꧃y finished with the lobby this time around before💃 going in.

Finding The Groundskeeper

Once Charlie and Jamie have gone through the door, continue down these corridors. There are a few options to branch off to look around, and down one of these smaller hallways, you’ll find the FBI Memo lying on the floor.

You can also find the groundskeeper’s glove, which doesn’t count as a collectible secret𝕴 but gives interesting world-building, nonetheless.

Follow the sound of the classical music playing to orient yourself in the right direction, eventually entering th💃e room from which it&ꦜrsquo;s coming.

In here, you see The Groundskeeper, tethered to a chair behind a cage with his head covered by a sack, pleading for Charlie and Jamie to help him. As Charlie approaches the fence, he steps onto a pressure plate and activates the execution trap – a giant scythe that will swing down aꦰnd impale The ꦇGroundskeeper if Charlie moves.

The killer appears and almost immediately threatens Charlie, pointing a large knife at him. Now, Charlie has to decide whether to stay there or move away.

If Charlie chooses to...

Then...

Step off the plate

The Groundskeeper is immediately impaled.

Stay on the plate

The killer will slice his nose, and he steps 😼backwards reflexively, killing The Groundskeeper anyway.

Do nothing

Jam🦂ie pulls him off the plate, and their relationshi🧸p increases.

No matter what you do here, The Groundskeeper is killed.

The lights turn off in the room, but when they come back on a moment later, both the killer and The Groundskeeper’s body are gone. Charlie and Jamie attempt to run away, but after a loud sound echoes through the building, a metal grate falls to cover the door, trapping the pair inside.
