Lighting Comparison
Play a scene from the original and the remastered version side by side, noting differences in shadow depth and color grading. Record which lighting changes affect enemy visibility the most.
- Compare scenes before and after the upgrade to notice the lighting differences.
- Adjust the new brightness system if the post‑processing makes dark areas harder to see.

Control Sensitivity Test
Adjust the aiming sensitivity in small increments while using a controller. Observe how each setting influences camera steadiness during ghost encounters and choose the most comfortable level.
- Test both controller and mouse to see which feels more precise for aiming.
- Use the sensitivity settings to balance quick turns with steady shots.

Puzzle Observation
Document each environmental clue you encounter in both games. Compare how the upgraded textures and clearer UI elements affect your ability to locate and solve puzzles.
- Pay attention to environmental clues; they often guide puzzle solutions.
- Use the camera’s flash sparingly during critical moments.
