THE SHELLS (The Shells West) (5)

Your guide to the House in Shells location in The Sinking City 2. Find loot, understand the layout, and prepare for encounters with Wylebeasts and Cocitians.

Alright, let's talk about the 'House in Shells.' It's a two-story place in The Shells district, pretty run-down with boarded-up windows. Just a heads-up, this area is Infested, so be ready for trouble. Ground Floor: When you first step inside, it's pretty bare. There's a side table you can loot right away. You'll find stairs leading up and a couple of doors. One door leads to a small kitchen where you can grab some .38 pistol rounds off a table. Keep an eye out for a hole in the floor above this table – it's a shortcut later. The other door opens into a dining area. There's a table with a First aid kit on it. Now, here's where things get spicy: if you enter the area behind the kitchen or go through the hole in the dining area wall, you're going to run into some Wylebeasts and Cocitians. Be prepared to fight! There's also a door that looks like it leads to a basement, but you can't get in there. Upper Floor: Head up the stairs, and you'll find another side table to loot. There's a barricaded door down the hall that you can't open. The room on the left is important for the 'Open House' case. You'll find a desk here with incense and a note called 'Don't tell the police.' In the back of this room, there's a bed. To the left of the bed, you'll see a painting with a note pinned to it: 'Don't look!' Be warned, taking this note will seriously mess with your sanity. To the right of the bed, there's another side table to loot. The rest of this room is just some furniture and books. The next room over has its door busted open, but it's mostly empty, just some furniture and another hole in the floor leading back down to the kitchen.
