Walkthrough: Mansion

Your first objective is to find clues. After speaking with Barry, proceed through the far door. You will encounter your first zombie; shoot it until it falls, then shoot it again to ensure it stays down. This is Kenneth's body, the first clue. Collect the clips and return to Barry. A zombie will burst in, and Barry will deal with it. Head to the Main Hall. Barry will give you a lock pick and direct you. Go through the blue doors. In this room, move the steps next to the statue to collect the map, then move the desk to reveal a door. Inside, a zombie is on the floor; you can shoot it or boot its head off. Collect the ribbon on the shelf and exit.

Go through the other door. A dog will burst through the window; shoot it with 5-6 timed shots. Around the corner is another dog; kill it the same way and exit through the door. The first door is a bathroom (ignore unless you are Chris, then drain the water for a cabinet key). Continue down the corridor to two doors. The left door leads to a room with a shotgun. If you are Jill, enter to get it; Barry will save you from a trap. Chris should not enter yet.

Through the other door, you'll meet two more zombies. If Jill, practice headshots. Go through the Grey Door, kill the zombie by the stairs, collect the green plant (use if injured), and enter the save room. Save your game, deposit items, collect the 'Earth' (likely a key item), and exit. Go upstairs. Kill the zombie to your left and the one behind you. Go through the door at the end of the corridor.

Shoot the zombie and enter a small study. Examine the Botany book and leave. Continue down the corridor, past the green doors (inaccessible yet). After shooting another zombie, you'll find two more doors. Enter the unlocked one to return to the Main Hall. Barry (Jill only) will give you bazooka ammo. Find the bazooka in the next room, guarded by crows. Investigate the body to find the bazooka (Chris finds clips). Don't kill the crows. Exit and go across the hall.

You are now on the balcony above the Dining Room; kill the two zombies. Push the stone statue off the balcony and go through the far door. Kill two zombies by the stairs, then go down. Kill two more zombies and go through the door at the bottom. This is a save room. (Chris meets Rebecca here; if you accept her help, she prepares medicine and assists later. If you decline, she still prepares medicine but offers no later aid). Collect the ribbon (Chris gets a key) and save. Remember this room.

Exit and continue down the corridor, encountering another zombie. The door on your right contains items and a rusty shotgun (Chris needs this for the actual shotgun) but is inaccessible yet. Go through the other door, shoot zombies, and head towards the plant room.

In the plant room, a plant blocks access to a key. Put the 'Earth' in the pump to kill the plant and collect the key. Use green plants if injured. Return to the rusty shotgun room and collect items (Chris uses the rusty shotgun to get the new one). Go back through the doors and turn right. Enter the bedroom on your right. Collect the clip on the bed. A zombie will burst from the cupboard when you investigate the desk.
