You'll need to carefully examine the scene to piece together the events of the night, all while evading the authorities.

The Shadow Halls represent the very beginning of Lucas Kane's harrowing ordeal. After the shocking murder of a man in his apartment, Lucas finds himself in a state of panic and confusion. The primary objective here is to clean up the crime scene and avoid detection by the arriving police. This involves interacting with various objects in the apartment, such as the bathtub, the rug, and the kitchen sink, to dispose of evidence. Pay close attention to the on-screen prompts for quick-time events (QTEs), as failing these can lead to Lucas being apprehended. The apartment itself is a puzzle box, with each item playing a role in Lucas's desperate attempt to cover his tracks. You'll need to manage Lucas's stress levels, which are indicated by a meter. High stress can lead to mistakes, so try to remain calm and methodical. Explore every nook and cranny of the apartment to ensure no evidence is left behind. The initial investigation by the police is a ticking clock, so efficiency is key. Remember to use the environment to your advantage, whether it's hiding objects or using them to clean up. The fate of Lucas hinges on your ability to navigate this tense introduction without raising suspicion.
Key objectives in this section include:
