Blair Witch Chapter 4

In Chapter 4, the story unfolds swiftly after Ellis's intense exchange with Sheriff Lanning over the walkie-talkie.

Once the conversation concludes, progress along the path or follow Bullet as the loyal companion leads the way. A serene pond comes into view. Take an immediate right, keeping watch over the rocky ledge to the left. Amongst the weeds lies an object prompting Bullet's interaction. Commanding Bullet to fetch reveals a new tape titled "The Friendly Chat," capturing a cryptic conversation between the Sheriff and an enigmatic figure.

Upon reviewing the tape, continue on the path until reaching the far side of the pond. Two prominent rocks outline a path forward, leading to an unusual white tree. Discovery of this tree triggers another tense walkie-talkie exchange, hinting at deeper mysteries.

Options open up after the conversation ends. A path to the right leads to a broken-down car and a lit trench area, hosting a staircase to a locked bunker. Entering the trench area initiates another walkie-talkie conversation. Exiting the conversation prompts Bullet to deliver a Red Tape titled "The Breadcrumb Trail," revealing a scene with a fallen tree and Peter dropping a baseball. Pausing the tape aligns with the moment Peter releases the ball, making it materialize in the trench upon exiting the camcorder view.

After another brief walkie-talkie exchange, instruct Bullet to scent the ball and follow him as he dashes off. Here, players encounter the first forest monster, susceptible to the flashlight's light. Players can choose to confront the monster or switch to the camcorder's night vision mode to evade it, albeit with reduced visibility.

A faint red light in the distance signals a new area, featuring a crashed cart and a fallen tree obstructing the path. Reviewing the Red Tape again unveils a moment where the tree is raised. Passing beneath it reveals a broken bridge. A call from Lanning draws attention to the tree's discovery, sparking yet another conversation, albeit with a revelation—Lanning is nowhere to be found.

As the conversation ends, the forest monster reemerges. Players can confront or flee from it. Arriving at the repaired car leads to discovering a locked door, accompanied by a note directing a call to Ch.3 on the walkie-talkie. This triggers a swift cutscene followed by Bullet delivering the truck keys. Unlocking the door reveals a need for a battery reconnection.

Repairing the battery and engaging the radio triggers a sequence, granting a text message containing the bunker's combination. Further actions within the truck include solving the fusebox puzzle by rearranging the fuses, culminating in a sudden time skip to the following day.

Exiting the truck and venturing down the left path leads to a ledge, restoring cell signal and presenting texts from Jess. Crossing the river and continuing along the opposite path brings a small clearing, sparking a pivotal cutscene that seamlessly transitions into Chapter 5.
