The Fatal Frame series is back. Rei Kurosawa's fiancé, Yuu Asou, dies in an ugly car accident when she is driving. She enters a haunted mansion as part of a reporting assignment. Here she is frightened by images of her dead fiancé. The game incorporates the camera mode from the previous games, used to capture ghosts. You use the camera obscura not only as a weapon to capture ghosts but as a guide by taking pictures of the ghosts and creepy objects in the house in order to solve the mystery and get rid of the curse. You walk around with a strobe light looking for clues to the mystery. Throughout the course of the game you can play as three women and switch between a dream world and real-life. All in all, it carries over the same Japanese horror theme as the first two.

GAMEPLAY BASICS
Object of the Game
Ever since her traumatic loss, Rei Kurosawa, the game's protagonist, has wandered night after night through the mysterious manor that haunts her dreams. She begins to notice disturbing changes in her body when she awakens, and before long is in the grip of a "Curse" that threatens her life.
You must guide Rei through the old manor and use the various means at your disposal to help her solve its mysteries.
Ghosts
Fighting with Spirits
Ghosts will attack you as you explore the manor. If you have acquired the Camera Obscura, you can use it to fight back against them. See p.28 "Fighting with Ghosts".
Searching the Nightmare Manor
By investigating certain places throughout the manor (button), you can acquire various items and clues to help you solve the mystery.
Messages from Ghosts
Not all ghosts will attack. There is hidden significance in the actions of some of the ghosts that wander the manor. They might reveal their secrets by the paths they follow and the rooms they enter.
The words they speak and the written items they leave behind also contain a wealth of clues about the message they want to get across. Listening carefully to their messages will help you to figure out the best way to proceed.
Exploring with the Camera Obscura
Some things inside the dream manor can only be discovered when viewed or photographed

Tips & Maps
finding the ghost
The filament responds to ghosts in the direction the player is facing, and listening for sounds can also help locate them.
charge up your spirit power
Your Spirit Charge accumulates when a ghost is in your Capture Circle, and a bigger charge means more powerful damage when you press the shutter.
watch for a shutter chance
When your capture circle turns red, taking a picture of the ghost at that moment knocks it back and inflicts serious damage.
Taking a picture
Press the shutter (X button or R1 button) at the right moment to inflict damage to the ghost.
putting Down the camera and evasion
Put down the viewfinder and create distance from the ghost during a lull in battle to prevent damage.
using upgraded Lens
Upgraded Lenses offer various functions that make your fighting ability more effective, with different lenses being useful in different situations.
slow
This lens slows down a ghost's movements and extends Shutter Chance time, making it easier to catch fast or unpredictable ghosts and take pictures during Shutter Chances.
Blast
This lens knocks back adversaries, making it effective when surrounded or facing enemies with high hit points, and inflicts major damage during a Shutter Chance.
watch for a fatal frame
During a Shutter Chance, a flashing red lamp signals a Fatal Frame, where taking a picture inflicts massive damage, earns many points, and can be chained for further effects.
If you get caught by a ghost
Move the left analog stick back and forth quickly to escape from a ghost's clutches and minimize damage.
Enemies & Characters
REI Kurosawa
This character has a good balance between attack strength and movement speed. Her characteristic strength is her large Capture Circle, which makes it easy for her to attack effectively.
Miku Hinasaki
This character has strong attack strength but a small capture circle, making it harder for her to attack effectively. She is also not as physically strong as the other characters.
Kei amakura
Moves quickly, but is not very good at fighting ghosts. He has good Health, which he can use to move objects and obstacles that are too heavy for the other characters.
