[NEW MAP] DON'T LET HIM IN Beginner Guide

First session

1. Set the round up — You and your squad pick a creature and a difficulty in the lobby, then spawn indoors. An alert tells you to stay inside until sunrise and not to investigate sounds outside. Easy, Normal, and Hard badges end at 6 AM and send you back to the lobby. Headphones matter because the cues are audio, and those cues can point at the wrong wall. This is place 121165298854655 by dilly dally games, not the burglar game that protects a Dominus until 8 AM.
2. Use the quiet minutes — Equip a battery so the flashlight works. Pick up every other battery you see. Walk the stairs, every door, the upstairs windows, one closet, and the path to the outside breaker before the creature arrives. In a squad, put one player on each floor. Spawn shelves for batteries are not fixed. The description recommends voice chat, and the experience page on 11 October 2026 also listed Voice Chat as Not Supported. Use voice only if your client enables it.
3. Answer an entrance — If you hear it, or the screen says Opening active, go to that door or window. Look right at it, shut it, and turn on a floodlight. Do this while house power is on. Do not open a door while it is on the step, and do not open a window to peek. It opens entrances itself, including upstairs, so walk the loop again after every scare-off. Do not flash a handheld light at the glass. That tip belongs to a different game.
4. Two emergencies — If the lights die, it cut the power. Wait until it leaves the house, flip the outside fuses until the game says power restored, then shut the door and close whatever opened in the dark. If the screen says Breach active, it is already inside. Hide without letting it see you, flashlight off, or step outside until it leaves. Restore power only after it is out. Fuses are finite. One fix does not end the night. Against the Skinwalker, do not open the door for a copy. The tell is not published.
