Solve the Silent Hill: Shattered Memories bridge controls puzzle and the radio song puzzle to escape the car and progress.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Dahlia will make you get out of the car to operate the bridge controls.
  2. 2
    Hop over the fence on the right and go up the ladder to enter the control room.
  3. 3
    Examine the controls and press the button on the left to start.
  4. 4
    A colored light will flash: BLUE, RED, YELLOW, or GREEN.
  5. 5
    Match the light color to the correct lever action:
    • BLUE: Pull the center lever.
  6. 6
    RED: Pull the lever on the left.
  7. 7
    YELLOW: Pull the lever on the right.
  8. 8
    GREEN: Do nothing until the bridge lowers or the light changes color again.
  9. 9
    It should take four light changes for the bridge to lower. If it hasn't by this point, you are doing something wrong.
  10. 10
    Return to Dahlia.
  11. 11
    Warning: Do NOT touch the Radio until instructed, or the game will glitch and you will be unable to escape the car.
  12. 12
    Wait until you hit the bottom of the lake, then get into one of the back seats.
  13. 13
    Grab the flashlight when it floats up from underneath a back seat and return to the front seat.
  14. 14
    Look out the window; a Raw Shock will appear and the car will begin to ice over.
  15. 15
    When the radio starts to flash, turn it on.
  16. 16
    Turn the dial to the right until it plays "Always on my Mind" clearly.
  17. 17
    Wait a few seconds for the ice to disappear.
  18. 18
    Pull the safety lock on the door upwards and then pull the door handle to escape.
  19. 19
    If you do not escape, you will drown after about 60 seconds, but the game continues. Escaping is necessary for the Love Lost ending.

Dr. Kaufmann's Office:

In Dr. Kaufmann's office, you will be asked to separate pictures of people into 'dead' or 'sleeping'. This choice does not seem to have a significant impact, but for the Wicked and Weak ending, choose 'Sleeping' for all pictures.

Outfit Variations:

Your outfit in the subsequent cutscene (a non-interactive cinematic the game plays automatically) depends on your earlier choices:

  • Jock: Sports jacket and jeans.
  • Bully: Leather outfit.
  • Love Lost Ending: Brown coat and pink t-shirt.
  • Wicked and Weak Ending: Tan coat with a green t-shirt.

Nightmare Hospital Section:

  1. Turn off your torch and go through the double doors. You will be slightly injured but will recover over time.
  2. Go through the next door, then left, and jump down the ledge.
  3. Watch out for Raw Shocks. Climb the ledge to get a flare; use it if necessary.
  4. Go through the door straight ahead into a line of train carriages.
  5. Go through the door at the end, then into a train yard. Keep going straight to the door ahead.
  6. Go through the train carriage.
  7. Go under the train on the left, up the ledge, and through the door on the right.
  8. Go through the door on the other end of the room.
  9. Go left and knock over obstacles if needed. Jump fences and knock over obstacles again.
  10. Turn right and go through the double doors at the far end, ignoring the ones directly in front of you.

Hospital Visit Radio Puzzle:

After the double doors ice over behind you, go forward to receive a text from Dahlia. Continue through the next door and run to the father next to the bed to get the message "Hospital Visit." Listen to it. They mention a little girl's song being played on the radio. Look at the radio beside the bed and turn the dial to approximately 101.6FM to tune into Alchemilla Radio. The radio will state that to play your song, you must ring 555-881 and the song number. A poster with song numbers is located behind you after a 180-degree turn. Song number 4 is "Daddy's Girl." Ensure the radio is still on Alchemilla and ring 555-8814.

Tips
  • You can call Jimmy Capra at 555-3411 for instructions on operating the bridge if you prefer not to use the provided solution.
  • The car will ice over if you do not escape, leading to drowning after approximately 60 seconds.
  • Escaping the car is required for the Love Lost ending.
  • The radio puzzle requires tuning to Alchemilla Radio (around 101.6FM) and then calling 555-8814 to play song number 4.
