You might also be wondering how you can find every anomaly to unlock the ‘Residents of Underground Passage’ achievement for the game. Whatever you’re looking for, this guide will provide you with every anomaly inThe Exit 8.

How To Discover Anomalies in The Exit 8
The Exit 8isa lot like the gameP.T.created by Hideo Kojima, intended to be a precursor to a newSilent Hilltitle. When you first begin the game, you might be a bit confused by the instructions. The game tells you that if you notice any anomalies, you shouldturn around immediately.If you don’t spot any,continue forward.
When you start, you’ll want to head forward down the hallwayfacing the yellow Exit 8 sign.There will be a man walking towards you here. Continue forward until you reach the end of the hallway with a large yellow sign that says’Exit 0'.The object of the game is to keep passing by this sign as it continues to increase in number, so you’ll know you’re doing something right if it says’Exit 1', ‘Exit 2’, and so on.

The only area where you’ll notice any anomalies is themain hallway with the man.The additional turns in-between here will not show any anomalies and only exist to tell you if you’re on the right path. So, if you notice something strange down the main hallway that wasn’t there before,immediately turn around and start heading back towards the yellow sign.You’ll notice the number increase from ‘Exit 0’ to ‘Exit 1’ if you correctly identified an anomaly. Be prepared to get a bit frustrated, though, asthis horror game will have you questioning your sanity.
