This morning I bought this game. I'm going to wait for it to be completely updated. Thank you very much

If one's very hasty with the riddle in order to get the 5th ouija statuette (from left to right) and drops down from the attic staircase before it has lowered the lower part of itself, one gets stuck inside the stair and can't move anymore.

So one of the arms in the doll puzzle bugged out for us. I cannot say what has caused it.

We have put all of the other pieces in place, all that is left is the straight arm.
When we pick up the straight arm, and put it on the doll, it makes the click noise, but doesn't change as though we have just been putting the same piece on the doll with no change.

If you have the straight arm on you, and then put it down, it goes as one of the bent arms.
None of the other bent arms change into the straight one, the straight one just seems to bug out and change, possibly when putting it on the doll.

Have tried literally every single arm left, just in case one did the opposite, but no such luck.


Thanks to having only one save file there is nothing I can do about this and I cannot continue the game, and I cannot load to a previous save.
Game broken, unless I want to start all the way from the beginning again after coming this far.

Since there is a topic here about bugs, please fix the Blur/Post Proseccing issues or give an option to remove the Blur entirely. Keep up the good work :)

Not sure if this is a quirk of my set-up or a common issue, but I'm having serious problems interacting with certain UI elements when playing with a controller. Issue seems to be that the mouse pointer is still visible and given priority in menus etc. even when gamepad is in use.

As such, the rollover highlight - for instance, in the documents etc. menu option, or on the combination entry screen for the library safe - is locked to the current mouse position, making it extremely difficult to tell what you've *actually* selected. Had to enter the safe combination blind, which took a fair few (stressful!) tries.

I'm sure I'm not the only person that plays on a big screen well away from my actual PC and mouse, so it'd be great if this could be investigated!

we brought this game this morning and so far we cant even get past the 1st room with the mercury key in, as soon as i walk towards the "blood" my camera continually rotates without any imput from me, once i finnally press enough buttons to get this under control and regain control of my guy, the exact same thing happens when i pick up the key and the door closing sound is played, if i manage to fight the camera constanly spinning again and regain control, i walk upto the door to reopen it and fall through/out of the map no longer able to get to any menus or exit the game other than alt+f4, currently unplayable for us

Well we will wait a little longer for "the fatal error", in any case a good thing is the self backup it avoids to always start all over again

I had to restart this game to get it to work after this patch..I am now so Laggy...I cant play it like this and The woman still kills me even if I run away. I get that this is a moster but get real. It's not fun having to keep on reloading your game. Please look into this...TY

I want to play with Mouse/Keyboard but the Mouse go out of screen on the right and lower side. The game is on fullscreen but everytime i click out of the game. Please fix this, or maybe help with this problem. Thank you
For me the door in the basement (the one with the furnace and where the doll's leg is) is in stuck status (can't be opened anymore, though it could be opened before the patch), as the result I'm stuck in the basement again and can't progress anymore.
Also I confirn that at some point of the game all the doors that requre a key became locked again.

I was able to pick up the wizard staff without finding or burning any vodoo talismans. basically i was trying to pick up the paper in front of the staff, and grabbed the staff by mistake. i still went through and found the vodoo talismans, but it makes it possible to skip a huge portion of the game. i've got it on video if you need

Not sure if this can help, but i had a similiar problem:
Rightclick on the game in your Steam Library, select Properties, under the general tab click the "Set Launch Options", add the launch option you want, close and start the game. (i listed to options, pick one)

-windowed -noborder (Forces the engine to start in windowed mode.)
-fullscreen (Forces the engine to start in fullscreen mode.)

Maybe that will help?
