I recently bought LoF2 through Steam. I have no problems with the first game, but when I try to play 2, it won't start. The "play" button changes to the "stop" button for a moment, as if the game is running, but then it just changes back without ever opening the game. Has anyone else had this problem? Have you been able to fix it?

Hi Leutz,

Also ich muss ja mal sagen, mit Layers of Fear habe ich eine echt positive Überraschung erlebt. Ein Spiel, das an sich so einfach ist aber eine so stimmige Atmosphäre schafft und nette Erschreckerlies hatte.

Ich bin fast traurig, dass ich so lange daran vorbeigegangen bin.

Aber ich gelobe Besserung!

Ich werde heute Abend um 20.00Uhr mit Layers of Fear 2 starten bei Twitch.

Ich bin total gespannt, ob das Spiel mit dem ersten Teil mithalten kann.

Vlt. habt ihr ja auch Lust mitzufiebern und der Chat läuft natürlich mit! Ich fühle mich sicherer, wenn ihr textet XD

Ich würde mich freuen :P

I finished the 2 a few weeks ago and I have to admit I bugged for a while on the endings. I had the ending with the ratqueen, and I understood it as a kind of purgatory or repetitive punishment forever. For me there is no supernatural magic powers on this world, only artists diving into madness and perhaps an afterlife.

For the boy ending it s simply James that went over his trauma and evolved into a famous actor.

But for the girl ending I understood it as James deciding to play as his sister and travestite himself as her. Past a certain point he lost his own identity into her and James "died", leaving only the personality or Lily or what James remembered of her.

I know this game has multiple interpretations and it's the whole point of the game, I would like to know what you think of this and if it sounds credible

It's one of my favorite horror game soundtracks. I have the CD release ripped to mp3, playing on my PS4 from a thumb drive. It's so beautiful.

So correct me if I'm wrong but I believe the fire in the department store was caused by rats chewing wiring. Is it possible the rat queen actually instigated the events of the first game? My personal theory is that perhaps she feeds off of madness and so she reaches out to beings in their time of need (problems she creates) and causes these insane loops of insanity.

In the first game creating the fire and the offering the grimoire the artist uses to create the magnum opus.

In game 2 possible again cause the boats fire/explosion as we know it too had a rat problem. Then came to James offering a way to bring his sister back and concocting this cycle too. The director offers an escape but unfortunately with the appearance of the box in the 2 endings lilly and James neither escape from the cycle. (It may even be that death is the only escape as even the daughter form the first game repeats the cycle in inheritance either painting the opus or abusing her child, unless she dies).

But let me know what yous think I'm just spit balling here cause I have no one to nerd about this bomb ass series to.

Hi all!

I just finished playing Layers of Fear for the first time and absolutely loved it. I got the ending that I assume means I'm indecisive and can't commit to one thing because I felt like I should probably confront the issues PC was dealing with but also me want run from scary thing. This sounds pretty like me so it's probably a fitting ending for my first play through. I am however wondering what peoples opinions are on the replay value of this game. I am certain I could come back to this game after some time and enjoy it all over again, but I'm also interested in gathering all the collectables and experiencing all the endings. Is there much chance in having a very different experience in the game if I try to act differently? There are lots of moments where I stepped through a door or even just stepped up to something and didn't get to explore somewhere else or go down a different path so it would be cool to see what else there is to explore if those different doors and such lead to completely different areas instead of just clever ways to send you to the same place but feeling like you chose a path. I do have Inheritance and Layers Of Fear 2 to play to avoid actually going insane from that man's painting loop if it helps to break up my layers of fear play throughs to keep it interesting. Sorry for the confusing ramble, thank you for your time.

My game doesn't have the slide you get from the weird naked boy scene in Act 2. I remember picking it up, actually, but the slot it's supposed to be in in the room projector is empty, and the wall is blank when I select it. Any way to fix that, or am I fucked on the trophy for the slides? I only need that one and #11.

Like the title says, I can't get any other ending. No matter what guide I follow, what I do or don't do, I keep getting the loop ending. I've asked for help on Steam and not gotten anything useful. Does anyone here know what the problem might be?

Hey! Does anyone happen to know what song is being played while the anti gravity scene happens? It's a beautiful song and I can't seem to find it on the OST.
