1

Recognize a real hunt

The exit locks and the ghost begins an active hunt sequence. Do not confuse a ghost event with a hunt.

2

Break line of sight

Turn corners and use doors/large objects to stop continuous visual tracking before entering a hiding place.

3

Electronic safety

Active electronic equipment can reveal your position within hunt detection range. Turn off or drop noisy electronics before hiding when required.

4

Incense escape

Incense can temporarily disrupt the ghost during a hunt, creating time to turn a corner and reach safety.

Stuck here?
  • If the ghost keeps finding the same hiding place, check whether you are carrying active electronics, speaking, or entering before line of sight is broken.
