Mulberry County Survival Guide - How to Not Die

Mulberry County is mostly scripted horror, but a few moments can still end your run if you panic. This guide covers the survival fundamentals so the scares never catch you off guard.

Understanding the threats

The main danger is the Fallen Angels - entities that imitate people and appear at distances or through windows. They are presented through scripted encounters rather than free-roaming AI, so your job is to follow the game's cues calmly instead of fighting or outrunning them.

Hiding correctly

  1. When prompted, turn off the light first - leaving it on draws attention.
  2. Get into the closet immediately and stay there for the whole sequence.
  3. During the door-holding minigame, keep clicking the dots; even if you lose, the story continues.

Flashlight discipline

Keep the flashlight aimed where you are walking outdoors, but be ready to point it at a specific target during cutscenes - the camping-trip scene ends with a prompt to shine it on the figure. Reacting quickly there keeps the scene on its intended path.

Common mistakes to avoid

  • Ignoring the marker and wandering blindly in the woods.
  • Forgetting to turn off the light before hiding.
  • Panicking during the closet minigame - losing it is not a game over.
  • Missing the flashlight prompt at the end of the camping cutscene.
