Hello detectives,
One of the most important elements of being a detective is being able to read people. To pick up on their body language, unspoken clues and even the ability to know if they are lying to you or not.
All of this is equally important in The Séance of Blake Manor.
During your time at the hotel you will encounter 17 guests, 5 staff and 2 residents all of whom appear to have something to hide. Not everyone’s secrets relate to the missing woman, but it’s up to you to find out those that do.
There are a number of ways to uncover what these people are wanting to conceal from you including utilising Analysis Mode, you can examine elements of their appearance and countenance that might prove useful to further your investigation.
Discussing clues and observations you have made around the hotel as well as general conversation (whether eavesdropped or direct) can reveal a lot.
Exploring their rooms can also be very enlightening, but you have to make sure you won’t get caught in the act!
There is also a lot to learn from the Manor itself. Interacting with elements discovered as you explore (or snoop) can further your investigations in a big way. Detective vision highlights all the elements around you that you can interact with but be aware some are more relevant than others, so choose wisely.
There is a lot to learn, uncover and remember as part of this case so the in-game menu is a great tool to help you keep your discoveries in order and even piece together mysteries as you go, forming hypothesis or branching off on new lines of enquiry…
