It’s time to make your way to Niwa resort and follow the trail from the mysterious caller. Marianne has had little time to mourn the loss of Jack. She must head to the Niwa resort to find out who Thomas is.
After receiving the call to head to Niwa, you watch a short scene with Marianne driving to the resort. When you hop off the bicycle, you get control of Marianne. The first thing you want to do is check the door.
You’ll notice a lock on the door. Your first instinct would be to check the inside of the guard building. However, there’s nothing in there but a postcard. You’ll want to go down the path between the short wall and the guard office.
When you walk down the path you’ll see a dumpster. You don’t need to move this one. Simply climb on top of it and climb over the wall.
When you get to the other side you’ll get some dialogue as you get to run for the first time.
Get to the end of the paved road and jump down. You’ll see a dilapidated stairway you can jump down.
As you’re moving through the forest towards Niwa resort, you’ll run into a few forks in the road. Go down each path.
Some are dead ends that have a some back history of the Niwa Resort.
If you ever get lost, you can activate insight to see footsteps that will guide you in the right direction.
There’s a tree along the way that has a child’s handprint if you have your insight on.
Eventually, you’ll run into a fort. You’ll learn the fort had an accident or construction halted because they dug up some bodies.
When you enter, you’ll enter your first dual-reality gameplay area. Whenever an area has a story to tell Marianne’s spirit world activates.
Continue into the fort where you’ll see a fuse box without power. You’ll notice in the spirit world, that there’s a way to power it. However, you’ll need to gather energy from a spirit well.
Head to the left (if you’re facing the fuse box) and go down the hallway. In the spirit world, you’ll see a well. However, in the real world, you’ll just see a collapsed tunnel. Maybe these are the spirits of the dead killed during construction or unearthed?
After clicking on the spirit well, you’ll gather energy. Bring this energy back to the fuse box. Use your spirit blast to power it in the spirit world. Now, it’ll have power so you can continue towards Niwa Resort.
If you go to the right of the fuse box, you’ll see a picture of a young girl playing with a ball.
Who could it be?
