The game has a very very simple objective: destroy 8 of these bad boys
You will get many different tools for this job for example what I found so far:
1. Hammer
2. Pipe
3. Baseball bat
4. Frying pan
5. Fire axe
6. Crowbar
7. Pickaxe
Whenever you destroy a statue Skips will run towards the destroyed statue's location to check it out. I suggest running from the scene of crime, rather than hiding. Destroying a statue makes noise as well so be very very careful even while destroying it. Pausing the process to run from a doll does not make you lose progress!

The happiest npc in this game that will ever naruto run towards you.
She is constantly on the run following a set path. She has blue overalls on so you can never miss her and does a cute wave sometimes at you to cheer you up! There is a slight audio cue whenever she is close so keep your ears sharp.
Looks pretty similar to Skips, but she has no clothes painted on. But that's not where the similarities stop, she also chases you, however when you or the person she is chasing is looking directly at her she stops and freezes in place. Pretty handy tip: This mechanic does NOT work when you are standing behind her and she WILL kill you if you get too close even if somebody is looking at her.
Seeks has a bloodstain on her chest so gotta look out for the red spot always. It is imperative that you do not look directly at her. She doesn't chase you, she teleports behind you and wounds you instantly if you look at her too much. During my playthroughs I found out she usually spawns in the room you are hiding/AFKing in. Useful tip: You will hear a laugh every time she moves, and she usually moves rooms with you, then leaves you alone after she thinks you haven't noticed her (rude!).

There are many different potions in the game and they do different things based on their color (duh!)

Blue Potion
Makes you faster
Yellow Potion
Makes you destroy the statues faster
Red Potion
Makes you see where the dolls are
White Potion
Makes you less detectable
Strange Potion
Could be any effect from the previous potions OR a negative effect like getting slower

Self-explanatory

Use it to distract the dolls and make a quick escape!

And a special thanks to two people:

for being an amazing teammate and always a pleasure to play (and scream) with
for the funny and quite clever names he gave to these puppets
