Master Slitterhead's Clock Tower Incident with our comprehensive walkthrough. Learn enemy weaknesses, combat strategies, and story progression to overcome this challenging section.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    The Clock Tower Incident involves navigating grimy urban levels, often chasing down and fighting Slitterheads disguised as citizens.
  2. 2
    Utilize the core possession mechanic: rapidly switch between possessed bodies to gain buffs and overwhelm enemies. Don't get stunlocked; use the environment and your ability to hop between hosts.
  3. 3
    Identify disguised Slitterheads using visual cues or the game's (often redundant) sight-jacking mechanic.
  4. 4
    Be aware of the mission structure: alternate between dialogue-heavy exposition and action sequences in varied, but often samey, urban environments.
  5. 5
    The plot can become convoluted with time loops, shifting allegiances of Slitterheads, and parallel universes. Follow the main objectives while being prepared for narrative twists.
  6. 6
    Optional objectives may be required to progress the plot, particularly for unlocking and upgrading 'Rarities' (characters with special abilities). Despite being labeled optional, some may be mandatory to advance the story.
  7. 7
    Combat involves melee hack-and-slash with an emphasis on parrying, though body-switching is often a more effective strategy when overwhelmed.
  8. 8
    The game features a mission-based structure that can feel like it's stretching a small amount of content across a longer runtime.
Tips
  • Constantly switch bodies to maintain the possession buff and avoid enemy stun-locks.
  • The parry system is present but often less effective than rapid body-switching when facing multiple enemies.
  • Pay attention to the visual effects that highlight Slitterheads, as they often make the sight-jacking mechanic unnecessary.
  • Don't expect traditional horror; the game focuses more on its unique possession combat and narrative.
  • Be prepared for the plot to become increasingly complex and potentially nonsensical.
  • If the story stalls, check for any seemingly optional objectives related to unlocking or upgrading Rarities, as these might be mandatory for progression.
