About Forgotten Hill Surgery

Forgotten Hill Surgery is a chapter of the Forgotten Hill series set inside a decidedly unpleasant medical practice. You are a patient who would rather not be, and the exit is hidden behind a chain of puzzles involving strange instruments, locked cabinets, coded charts and a doctor with questionable methods. The art is stylised and slightly grotesque, and the humour is as dark as the setting.

Like the rest of the series, there is no timer and no failure state. You explore, collect, combine and think. Puzzles are logical rather than random, and every code you need is somewhere in the rooms if you look carefully.

How to Play Forgotten Hill Surgery

1. Click objects to examine them and pick up anything loose.
2. Move between rooms with the arrows on the sides of the screen.
3. Use inventory items on locks, machines and characters.
4. Combine items when one alone is not enough.

Controls

• Mouse: click to interact.
• Inventory: click an item, then click the object to use it on.
• Touch: the same taps work on a tablet.

Tips and Tricks

• Charts, posters and X-rays on the walls are puzzle clues, not decoration.
• Talk to every character you meet. Their odd lines hint at what the next puzzle wants.
• Keep a note of any symbol sequence you find, even if you do not know its use yet.
• If a door or machine reacts to an item but does not open, it usually needs a second item first.
