Silent Hill 2 Hints

Hard

  • 2 of 11: The first two lines refer to someone "silent and empty." Sounds like an empty slot to me.
  • 3 of 11: Next is "one who knows the place of the servant is next to the throne." Leave it for now.
  • 4 of 11: The only one in this group without toes is the Snake.
  • 5 of 11: On one side of the snake is "the one that is hidden" (i.e., a blank space) --
  • 6 of 11: -- and on the other side is the Prisoner ("closer to lady").
  • 7 of 11: That means the "servant next to the throne" is the Old Man.
  • 8 of 11: The last two lines tell you which direction to start from.
  • 9 of 11: "The birth of the sun" is the east, and you might think that was on your right --
  • 10 of 11: -- but "with the north star behind me," you're facing south, and east is on your left.
  • 11 of 11: So the final array is: empty -- Old Man -- empty -- Snake -- Prisoner
