Pesadelo O Inicio Walkthrough

Welcome to the official Lupo guide for Pesadelo O Inicio. There are many ways to go around in completing each stage so this is one route to take to complete the game. Enjoy!

(Opening the Administrator Room will unleash the monster to pursue you. This guide takes the longer path to reach this moment so depending on how prepared you are to face it, think when you’ll want to open the door.)

You start the game on one side of this abandoned tube station. Now you won’t be able to sprint yet, so make your way to the left to the Generator room. You’ll notice that there is a missing Valve which you’ll need to progress.

For now, grab the Torch, the 1st Mini Key on the seat and the Inventory Case beside it. You’ll also be able to sprint now. Now open the door to the janitors storage room and pick up the Save Paper.

Save Paper

 

These papers essentially save your progress during your playthrough though they are limited in number and can only be used once. You can’t use these yet though so it’s time to leave this room.

Now go to towards the tracks and towards the purple light to retrieve the Administrator Key.

Administrator Room Key

Now turn back and enter the electronics room with the door open. Go inside and recover the 2nd Mini Key.

2nd Mini Key

Only now the door is shut tight so what to do? Easy, collect the Matches.

Matches

Then grab one of the little bombs and using your inventory select it and place it into the door, then select your matches to light it up and bang, the door is open once again.

Now to clear up the toilets  as much as you can before unleashing the beast into the tube station. The toilets one side of the tracks have their doors locked for the moment, yet there is a Screwdriver you can collect at the end of the corridor outside of them.

Now go to the toilets which are open to retrieve the 3rd Mini Key.

Now head to the Administrator room. Before heading in, you’ll see a door in front of you, which contains the Locked Case and Clipboard. Using the Save Paper with the Clipboard saves your progress up until that moment so only use the save game if you’re sure about it or if you’ve got so far into the game you don’t want to risk starting over.

Now open the Administrator room to retrieve the missing Valve and the Storage Room Key, as well as the valve order that needs to be taken to start it up. Be warned now though for you’ve unleashed the creature.

Valve on shelf, key on table and sequence is on the piece of paper above.

Now head back to the Generator room and place the valve. Now if you look to your right you’ll see the four colours in the order that each valve needs to be turned. If not, remember the number order given to you before or the image below.

1st Valve Yellow 04
2nd Valve Red 02
3rd Valve Green 01
4th Valve Blue 03

 

Now that you’ve activated the Generator be warned. Soon enough a counter will start ticking down from 7:00 as the Generator is starting to overheat. Just keep a cool head during this stage. Now head to the other side of the tracks to the door at the opposite far end which you can now open thanks to the Screwdriver and Storage Room Key.

Once inside, pick up the Panel and the Lightbulb.

Panel On The Table, Lamp On The Shelf

Now remember the room with the missing lightbulb? If you don’t, head to the toilets you can enter to place the lightbulb into the socket and voila, you now have the code for the panel.

Code 2331

Leave the toilets and head towards one of the doors with an empty panel case beside it. Place the panel in and type the code given to you to enter the room.

Once inside you’ll find the Toilet Keys.

Now open the locked toilets to recover the 4th Mini Key.

4th Mini Key

Now that you’ve got all Mini Keys, run back to the room where clipboard and Locked Case where and open the Locked Case to retrieve the Master Key.

Master Key

Now it’s a matter of opening the main doors to escape this station and head down this corridor but great it’s blocked off, so take a right through the earth.

You’ve escaped the Tube Station and survived the first part of this nightmare, but the worst is yet to come….

Pesadelo O Inicio Review

(This game is a review of the current at the time Portuguese version. Slight spoilers may follow.)

Recently games have been announced or released from countries that aren’t normally associated with the gaming industry. Pesadelo, in English translating to nightmare, delivers such an experience while playing it. Don’t get me wrong, the controls, environments, puzzles and game all work well but this is the sort of game that will get you every time with its scares, so perfect are all the elements combined.

The game is available in English and Portuguese, though the Portuguese version has a second stage with a second antagonist, as well as being the current version of the game. The language barrier may halt players gameplay experience but easy to understand visuals and items should be simple to understand. I consider playing the Portuguese version first, as the experience is longer and different making the experience that much more enjoyable.

The premise of the game is simple enough, you’re a character who after a day of hearing horror stories on the worst evils, he enters an abandoned tube station, later an abandoned office space, during the nighttime, There’s no one around, only tense music which makes the player on edge during the entire experience and there’s something lurking in the shadows. The game while never hand holding makes the player figure out certain parts of the game while never truly leaving one in difficulty. Pesadelo isn’t your typical ‘Go find x amount of x’ horror game and while you’ll obviously be searching for and collecting many items, which are all stored and named in your inventory, you’ll use these in ways that interact with the world.

For instance at one point you’ll have to blast open a door using nothing but the tools at your disposal and while the game does zoom into key elements aiding you, there are times when some uses for items or puzzle solving where a bit too vague so don’t expect how to progress written down for you. Pesadelo makes you think, during the worst time possible.

And before I forget let me tell you something important about this game, there are jumpscares. Not a few but a jumpscare galore, with ‘fake appearances’ or repeated appearances even though you’ve just outrun them or they’ve vanished, this game is unmerciful in trying to get you in this way and normally a game like that gets old real fast and though Pesadelo never gave me that feeling, this is because it doesn’t solely rely on this tactic to get a scare out of you.

What you see here is the Beta version, currently the english version, which featured only one area, no inventory with on screen display of items and a shorter experience.

The audio is tense as you explore the ruins and tube station, indeed when the odd light bulb flickers or door closes the sounds come out. Pesadelo is most terrifying once you spot your pursuer or as is the case most of the time, when they teleport right in front of you or beside you but this event would never make you jump out of your skin if it weren’t for the music which plays once you spot it.

As I said before, the stages are two areas and you’ll spend most of your time running from one to the next as you search for items or return to rooms with items which will allow you to progress. Pesadelo does a great, scratch that, excellent job of making you fear and swear at the game for making these environments so damn scary. Whether it is the tight corners, the darkness or just the feel of the room itself, you’ll be cursing the game’s ability in making the whole world seem like it’s out to get you.

Will you be able to enter such ominous rooms?

Now as for the antagonists. Pesadelo pits you against one antagonist per area. While it has become all to expected now that these sort of games have that one undefeatable antagonist who hunts you down for no reason, Pesadelo’s creatures feel different. Yes, they still rely on jumpscares which is even more terrifying due to the great job on the character models but these two will chase you down, with the second one being the stuff of inducing madness in her pursuits.

And while the first antagonist is never given any true backstory, Pesadelo excells in giving players a backstory and adding towards the legend of Loira and making it feel authentic and thus even more frightening.

Little possessed girls, why you so scary?

In the end, it is the elements that best make these indie games that have been balanced out and given more depth which allow Pesadelo to stand out from the crowd. Normally, you’re given absolutely no information and dumped into an abandoned (hospital, factory, forest?) with a simple objective and jumpscares. This is a game that makes the player feel that the antagonist isn’t out to get them, simply the stages have always been their domains and you’re unfortunately its next trespasser.

P&C’s

P – Terryfying atmosphere and antagonists, second stage varied and great to play,  environments add to the fear, audio, no hand holding but doesn’t leave one wandering about or stuck in difficulty.

C – Portugese language version only up to date, puzzles sometimes too vague or directions, extras?.

Lupo Meter

Fear – Immersive and very atmospheric, best played with headphones in the dark for a horrifying experience.

Sound – The music keeps you tense throughout the game until the, it will get you just about every time, monsters audio cue leaps in, sound effects used effectively.

Horror – The premise of unescapable nightmare based on legends and the fact that it could be a dream or not work.

World – Creatures design is effective as they’ll terrify you every time, stages are varied adding to the fear,

Final Words

Pesadelo does what most horror games wish they could; continously terrify  the player and once the nightmare has been beaten this is a game that doesn’t hesitate to creep you out playthrough after playthrough with jumpscares galore, immersive gameplay and not your typical indie horror, go find x amount of items to defeat your antagonists. These antagonists are two of the most frightening brought to life onto the horror scene. If you’re a fan of horror gaming, you’d be truly missing out by not trying to survive through the nightmare, or in other words, the Pesadelo.
