Tips

Continuously switch bodies during combat to take advantage of the buff granted to newly possessed characters.
Utilize the parry system effectively, but be prepared to switch bodies if overwhelmed by multiple enemies.
Pay attention to visual cues and environmental details to identify disguised Slitterheads, though a direct visual effect often highlights them.
Complete optional objectives to unlock 'Rarities,' as some are required to progress the main story despite being labeled as optional.
Be aware that the game's horror elements are more conceptual than visceral; focus on the mechanics and narrative rather than expecting traditional scares.
