The Bone-Chilling Dilemma: Confronting Grandpa in Texas Chain Saw Massacre - Escape or Incapacitate?

The Texas Chain Saw Massacre asymmetrical multiplayer game is an interactive adaptation of the 1974 horror classic film. It features various original characters, including the Grandpa of the Slaughter Family.

Despite not being a playable character, Grandpa is a significant threat to the Victims. His sonar ability makes it challenging for Victims to hide from him. However, there are opportunities for players to incapacitate him. Yet, it is important to note that attacking Grandpa is not a simple task, and players should consider if it is worth the effort or if escape is a better option. This guide offers strategies for Victims on how to handle Grandpa in the Texas Chain Saw Massacre game.

How To Deal With Grandpa In The Texas Chain Saw Massacre

At the start of the game, Grandpa is in a state of slumber, unless the Victims manage to flee the Basement or cause a disturbance with excessive noise. Furthermore, family members possess the ability to rouse him by offering him blood as sustenance. As soon as Grandpa awakens, he emits a powerful shout, denoting all mobile victims with a vibrant shade of yellow, making them conspicuous to everyone.

Grandpa's screams will persist at level one, but as Family members feed him more blood, he gradually advances to higher levels. With each level increase, his screams become more frequent. By the time he reaches level five, he lets out a piercing scream every few seconds, consequently exposing the whereabouts of all moving and non-moving Victims.

As hiding plays a crucial role in surviving The Texas Chain Saw Massacre, Grandpa significantly intensifies the challenge when he reaches his maximum level. Nevertheless, Victims possess the ability to hinder his progression to level five by inflicting wounds upon him, thus causing him to regress to the previous level.

To effectively disable Grandpa, it is essential to gather Bone Scraps. Victims can harvest Bone Scraps from various locations in the Basement. Once obtained, these Bone Scraps serve as a means to stab Grandpa.

It is important to exercise caution while in the presence of Grandpa, as any noise made by the Victims can potentially expose their location within his line of vision. To prevent early detection, Victims must sneak up on Grandpa prior to launching an attack. However, it is crucial to anticipate the need for a swift escape, as Grandpa will promptly alert the Family upon being attacked.

Should Texas Chain Saw Massacre Victims Incapacitate Grandpa Or Escape?

To ensure maximum effectiveness, it is advisable for the victims to incapacitate Grandpa only when he reaches his highest level or is in close proximity to it. In all other cases, prioritizing escape should be the primary course of action. If Grandpa's level is four or below, victims can still employ stealth tactics while actively searching for possible escape routes.
