Strategy matters as much as curiosity. Early rooms are riddled with red herrings—don’t waste time chasing every whisper. Focus on items that glow or emit a faint hum; they usually unlock the next door. Keep an eye on the monster’s patrol pattern; a quick glance can mean the difference between a safe room and a frantic race to escape.
