The Invisible Man is another recurring antagonist, a shadowy figure who stalks Lucas. Encounters with him are often stealth-based or involve chase sequences with intense QTEs.
Phases & Strategy:
- Stealth & Evasion: When the Invisible Man is present, you'll often need to use stealth mechanics (crouching, hiding behind objects) to avoid detection. Pay attention to sound cues and visual distortions that indicate his proximity.
- Chase Sequences: If detected, a chase sequence will ensue, characterized by high-speed QTEs. These require very fast and accurate input to jump over obstacles, slide under barriers, and outrun your pursuer.
- Environmental Traps: Some encounters might allow you to use environmental elements to temporarily stun or slow down the Invisible Man. Look for interactive objects that can be triggered.
- Mental Health Drain: Being chased or failing to evade the Invisible Man will rapidly decrease Lucas's mental health.
Weaknesses: The Invisible Man is vulnerable to environmental hazards if you can trigger them correctly. His primary weakness is your ability to outmaneuver him through precise QTEs and clever use of the environment.
Rewards: Successfully escaping or evading the Invisible Man allows Lucas to continue his investigation and avoid capture or harm. It also prevents a significant mental health penalty.
