Remembering the Elevator Trick or Treat Quiz Questions.

[Red Hefner]

I'm not looking for the answers as i'm actually happy to wait for another playthrough in the hope that the answers reveal themselves when reading the various documents in the town (i'm assuming all this information is available in game).

But my question is how am i supposed to remember the questions themselves when it comes to answering them without looking them up? Is it expected that i Google the questions or was suppose to right them down during the Quiz?

I know most of you prob just Googled everything including the answers but i'd actually like to find the answers myself in game.

SH2 is one that doesn't do a lot of hand holding. This is one of those things where you're expected to at least write down the number to your answers--IN ORDER. If you only take the numbers down, when you get to where you go to enter the numbers, you will be hosed if you didn't know which question (1, 2, or 3) they belonged to.

You can just write down Q1: (answer here), and that will be enough when you find out where to put the answers :)

The answers are indeed scattered though various newspapers and monuments.

It's random trivia that is available in the game yeah.

it's questions like "how many died in the plague" and I know that info was in a newspaper somewhere.

I already forgot the other 2 lol.

I assume you're supposed to write them down though, even if you remember the answers you probably won't remember if it was questions 1, 2 or 3 and weather or not it was answer 1, 2 or 3 either, even with all the right answers you would be playing mix and match with the order you put them in.

I have a MS paint window open on the PC while i'm playing just typing down random stuff and drawing crude pictures for things I think might be relevant.

Thanks for the replies, i guess if i want to actually research the answers myself at the very least i need to Google the questions, or find a video of the same scene, otherwise i don't know what answers i need.

An alternative of course would be to write down the questions during the second playthrough and research the answers during a third playthrough (if i really wanted the most honest way of solving the puzzle).

I'm not against Googling for help if i'm stuck and need to progress but with something optional like this that i might be able to get during playthroughs i'm going to do anyway, i may as well be patient and wait.
