Layers of Fear (2023) offers players an immersive experience with a plethora of mysteries to uncover. This game combines the elements from the previous installments and DLC, presenting players with a vast and captivating world. In the Actor's Story, players have the opportunity to explore an eerie abandoned ship, complete with theater stages, props, and unsettling mannequins. Through this exploration, players gradually unravel the story of the playable character.
As players delve deeper into the game, they will come across projectors that can be interacted with. These projectors serve various purposes, ranging from displaying eerie videos to triggering important cutscenes (such as the main projector in the cabin). However, some projectors pose as puzzles that need to be solved in order to progress further in the game. One common type of projector puzzle in Layers of Fear (2023) involves creating a door that players can pass through. While most puzzles simply require finding the correct slide to unlock the door, the projector puzzle encountered after visiting the radio room will demand a more intricate solution.
The Second Photo Slide Door
Inside the room, players will come across a projector that holds the key to unlocking a new door. To successfully manifest the door, players must navigate through the slides in the correct sequence, just like they did in the initial projector puzzle.
To begin, players should pull out the slides until the projector displays an image of an empty door frame. Once the frame materializes, players can cease interacting with the projector.
Next, pull the slides out until the projector shows the image of a door and release the projector to manifest the door.
Players will need to manipulate the slides once again to reveal multiple door handles. By following the correct order, a fully functional door will appear in front of the projector screen. To proceed, players should use the projector to locate an image displaying keys. This particular slide will generate a table on the left side of the door, with a key placed on top. It is crucial for players to view the three slides related to the door in the correct sequence. Once the key is obtained, players can unlock the door and continue their journey.
Layers of Fear (2023) is available now on PC, PlayStation 4 and 5, and Xbox One and Series S|X.
