SILENT HILL: Townfall CRTV and Puzzle Guide

Understand how the pocket television helps uncover puzzle clues and broadcasts. Combine its signals with environmental evidence to follow puzzles rooted in the town's history.

  • Signal Tuning

    The CRTV receives unstable analog signals carrying nearby threats, story fragments, and clues.

  • Environmental Clues

    Notes on desks and diagrams inside drawers provide information for puzzles; searching can leave Simon exposed to nearby enemies.

  • PS5 Motion Controls

    Twisting the CRTV with motion controls helps improve reception when tuning into weak signals.

  • Story Connections

    Puzzle setups and solutions reveal details about Simon's situation and the people of St. Amelia.

Learn when to block, hide, or escape during enemy encounters. Some threats require evasion, so survival depends on more than choosing a weapon.

  • Melee and Firearms

    Melee weapons support attacking and blocking, while firearms let Simon engage from a distance.

  • Crouch and Peek

    On PS5, Circle crouches behind cover; hold R1 and move the right stick to lean around corners or look over obstacles.

  • Break Pursuit

    Turning corners or moving behind cover can break an enemy's line of sight and help Simon escape.

  • Hiding Places

    Cabinets, closets, and lockers offer concealment, but enemies can pull Simon out if they see him enter.
