Fobia - St. Dinfna Hotel is a game that relies heavily on puzzles, which some players may not be able to properly understand or get through. There are some beginner tips for players to know before they take the plunge in the game and fully submerge themselves into it.
7 Remember To Save Often
Like a lot of other horror games in the genre, a player will not be able to save at any moment that they please. Save points will be scattered throughout the area, and it is only then that a player will be able to save their game.
There are clocks hanging throughout the hotel, and whenever they are placed somewhere, there is a very good chance that something extremely difficult will be nearby. It would be a good idea to save at every chance possible, or else the player will end up losing all of their items and puzzles.
6 Examine Everything Possible
A huge part of Fobia - St. Dinfna Hotel is the exploration. There are a great many things that a fan will be able to explore and find out during their playthrough, which will be essential when it comes to finding out the solution to all sorts of puzzles.
Luckily, a player will be able to examine all sorts of things in the world around them. All it will take is some thorough examination for a while, and sure enough, a player will definitely be able to find the solution to any puzzle.
5 Explore The Map Thoroughly For Clues
There are multiple puzzles for a player to solve throughout the gameplay of Fobia - St. Dinfna Hotel. As it turns out, there are some things that puzzles need that can be found all throughout the hotel, and it is up to the player to find them.

A player will really have to scour through the hotel and poke around every single room in order to find all of the clues that they need. It may be difficult at first, as a player might not know what they are doing, but it will be worth it - and sometimes even necessary - in the end.
4 Play The Optional Chess Quest For A Trophy
Although trophies do not really do much in terms of gameplay, most completionists still want to grab all of the trophies that they can. One trophy that a lot of players may miss is the trophy that is gained from playing chess.
There is a chess board somewhere in the hotel, and to gain the trophy for this board requires the player to know how to play chess. This is because the player must win the match to gain their trophy.
3 Make Liberal Use Of The Camera
One of the main tools a player will have at their disposal is the camera. This camera can be used to peek through all sorts of cracks and crevices that a player normally would not be able to see through.

Of course, this camera will be one of the player’s best tools to use. By using this camera, they will be able to peer into, say, a crack in the wall they wouldn’t be able to look into beforehand.
2 Handprints Show Where The Camera Can Be Used
Although there are multiple areas that a player can explore and find all sorts of clues (especially with their camera), there are places that are not meant to be so thoroughly explored. These are places that a player can get stuck on, thinking there has to be something behind the door.
Luckily, there is a quick visual indicator of which areas have places to use the camera to explore. If there are handprints on or nearby the area, that place is safe to use the camera on, as there is something for the player to discover.
1 Always Keep The Shotgun Prepared
As a player goes on through the game, they will get a shotgun. This shotgun will be pretty much their only weapon to use to fend off enemies, so players should take extra care to always have it ready to fire.
It would do a player good to ensure that the shotgun is always loaded up fully, in a place where the player can quickly access it, and with a few extra rounds just in case. It cannot hurt to be too prepared, after all, as it could be a matter of life and death.
Fobia - St. Dinfna Hotel is available on PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, and Xbox One.
