Long hallways? (may contain spoilers)

[jaredhkline]

How are we supposed to deal with the long hallways that we get thrown into when walking through breaches? I know that open doors kill, but closed doors just seem to throw me into different hallways. After wandering and trying closed doors for what seems like forever, my game eventually locks up.

Sometimes you will find "fragments of reality" behind this doors.

[jaredhkline]

So I just walk around and open closed doors forever?

[Appleman]

At first, try to go to closed doors (one or two times) and then go to a ajar door. Works for me.

[jaredhkline]

That worked for me once, but mostly it doesn't.

<spoiler> Ok, so this is what i uncovered so far. When you go through the breach and end up in the forest, you have a chance to search for the green girl. If you find her you get a fragment of reality.

And the next one is a hypothesis, not confirmed yet. The last time i went through an open door and found a fragment of reality, the irises of the protagonist were gone as if he was sleepwalking.

Edit: the hallways are bugged. If i spend too much time with walking in one direction, the game hangs up.

[jaredhkline]

I have also seen missing irises, but I'm not sure what it means. It's different than when his eyes are closed, and it frequently happens without fragments of reality or going through open doors.

I've never ended up in the forest from a breach. How do we make that happen?

[Tman]

I've ended up in the hallways without using the iris room, and not quite sure what triggered me being in the hallways. You can always enter the hallways from the iris room though.

[jaredhkline]

Is there a way to return to the level proper after entering the hallways? In the later levels, it seems fairly common to end up in the hallways after opening a door, which makes completing the level nearly impossible.

I think when you're about to open the locked door leading to the hallways you hear a loud knocking and the house shakes.

Actually it's rarer for me to end up in the hallways than the forest. I always went through the breaches. The "shaking doors" always led me to the hallways. Go through the eyeballs.
One more thing: i found the green girl in the forest at the first or second time i could explore the forest. I got no fragment from that time though.

I'm so confused about this game....Ice Pick Lodge games always had this kind of story, i love it. But in knock knock I'm confused even about game mechanics :D .
Like is it worth going trought eye in the wall? Because everytime i do it i die...going trought open door kill me. Or when i try go just trought closed ones. I usually die because of guests blocking my way (sometimes they are on both sides and there is no way around them).
Forest is another weird thing. What girl are you talking about? I think I seen her but she just disappear when i get close everytime.
Yet to found at least one of these "fragments" :D .
So question is...what is right thing to do when in forest or hallway?

Also....crying lady...whats with her? Sometimes she´s only guest in house but...harmless right? I'm thinking that she´s there to remind me I'm not going right way to the ending....and I think she´s right soo little time left, but only because of those damn hallways!
I also lost lot of time in the "house" segments (little houses on brain map) because i always searched whole house and turn on all lights but...is it neccesary? Seems like i should just talk with the clock guy and go out right? (on the other hand i found lot of notes this way)

Okay. So. The green girl in the forest. You have to creep up to her. Don't go from the sides. The last button you push before meeting her should be an "up". And it seems that you only get a fragment if you do this when you get to the forest through a breach. (i.e. a giant eye)

I got lots of fragments. At one point the game started showing animations that i have already seen before. But i haven't seen any "crying lady", yet.

oh....well i went trought eye at least 10 times but it always warped me into hallway :-( . Weird. (and i indeed went up when i saw her in forest walked up right into her but nothing :-( )
Well maybe this game is more random then we know :) . For example did you see....yourself? your doppelgänger? It was weird i opened door and he was standing in next room, then walks trought me and starts to do same animation as when you open the door, saying something (no subtitles) after about half a minute it disappeared...

edit: about crying lady...well not much to say, about minute after i woke up i heard crying, trought the whole house, seen nothing, but then i found her in one room, curled up in corner just crying when i went to her she disappeared not doing any damage....

No, i have not seen any doppelganger. But i got the achievement: "How's Annie? (Turned into a doppelganger. ) " And the main character had those totally blank irises like in the picture of that achievement. And - according to the achievements - i haven't found any diary pages.

I think that there are many houses and the hallways are connecting them.
Or, you can get into an other house by wandering into the forest.
But that's just a wild guess. I haven't finished the game yet.
Anyway, i found three types of walls in the hallways. There is a totally blue one, a brown one and an older blueish one.

The breach / forest part went for me like this. At first, only hallways. Then i never went into the breach, because it seemed pointless and it was scary. Then at the last "eye" level before the "monster" level i decided to explore everything i could. The breach put me into the forest on almost every occasssion.

Maybe that guy i saw was you and this is some sick online experiment :D . Also the girl...saw her again but she was there all the time only visible when lights were off (also this time i seen her face) . After a few minutes i decided to go in her room again and snap some screenshot but...she disappeared and note pop up something like "There is no "she" , its all just in your mind" ....I'm starting to like this game more and more :D . Also...my time is gone lost it all in this house with girl, died but...level just restarted and i cant see the thunderbolt at all. Wonder what ending I gonna get :) .
