![]() ![]() The basic gist is that you play as Caroline Walker, who receives an anonymous letter with only an address for the Wildberger Hospital/mansion/dungeon of doom, as well as a picture of two little girls that, for reasons unknown at first, give Walker headaches and nightmares. And despite my disagreement with that assessment, I can’t say it’s completely unfair. Those familiar with the basic formula will probably jump right in even despite some beginning frustrations others may view it as a clunky, outdated ripoff that’s hard to enjoy. But for those missing that classic experience, the recent Switch release Tormented Souls should certainly satisfy that hunger, even if outright recommending it is trickier. Truth be told, though, that style of gameplay is something every horror series has moved on from, and to be fair, it’s probably for the better – especially when series like the aforementioned Resident Evil have found ways to modernize the horror experience without relying on past gimmicks. The chronicles of Leon Kennedy in the former title have certainly provided the roadmap between adventure and horror that’s guided the series ever since its release, but there’s the part of me that’s a bit sad that we’ll never get games like the latter title again, when the controls were clunky, the camera angles were fixed, and we loved them just the same anyway. What this means is that, until I finally have the means to experience 7 and 8, I’m stuck deciding between 4 and the remake of the first game for my favorite title in the series. But hey, let’s table that for now and dive into the time machine.Īs a Switch owner, I can only say I’ve played certain Resident Evil titles, and only up to 6, at that. How could I have not gotten that?” moment.Well … yes, I think … or maybe no, depending on who you are, dear reader. It all felt like the piano puzzle from Silent Hill 1 after looking up the solution. The problem I have with it is that two times it’s the opposite of what’s described and three times it’s exactly what’s described. The judge reads the letters on the paper before him, so why would the monkey covering his eyes be the solution? Again, it’s the opposite of the text’s description. ![]() In 2, the attorney is hypnotised by the judge’s voice, so why would he be covering his ears? Or is it because he’s not hypnotised by the voice but by the movement of the judge’s lips alone, no matter his voice?Ĭan’t make anything of 1. However, 1 and 2 are the opposite of what is described in the text. She doesn’t speak, she writes words on a paper, so the monkey covering its mouth fits. In 3 the solution is a description of what the accused’s mother does. Solution: Speak no evil (monkey covers mouth) The accused’s mother wrote in capital letters frantically on a slip of paper that she lifted over her head in desperation. ![]() Solution: Hear no evil (monkey covers ears) The defense attorney seemed hypnotized by the angry movements of the judge’s lips. Solution: See no evil (monkey covers eyes) The judge read the sentence aloud in an unwavering voice, his fingertips sliding rapidly over the small bumps that covered the surface of his paper. While block 4 and 5 are obvious, I can’t wrap my head around why the symbols for 1 and 2 are those that solve it. ![]() I’d like to understand the why behind it. We ended up looking up the solution online but were a little disapointed since to us it made no sense. All puzzles before were fair and could be solved following logic or association. So I played the game over the weekend with a friend and while we had a blast solving the puzzles, we were stumped by the monkey thief puzzle. ![]()
