"Conquer Phasmophobia's Primitive Challenge: Weekly Tips"

May 01,2025 Author: Isabella

Embarking on the Primitive weekly challenge in *Phasmophobia* might make you feel like you've been transported back to the Stone Age, but unlike our cave-dwelling ancestors, we're dealing with ghostly apparitions instead of saber-toothed tigers. This challenge requires you to ditch your electronics and rely on your wits and intuition to navigate through haunted spaces. Let's delve into how you can successfully complete this daunting task.

How To Complete The Primitive Challenge in Phasmophobia

Screenshot by The Escapist The Primitive Challenge is one of the toughest weekly challenges you'll face in *Phasmophobia*. The crux of this challenge is to identify the ghost and complete your investigations without any electronic aids. This means you'll need to lean heavily on your understanding of ghost behaviors and use the limited tools at your disposal effectively.

Your battleground for this challenge is 10 Ridgeview Court, a house-style map known for its manageable layout. Remember, you must complete three successful investigations here to earn full credit for the challenge.

Tips & Tricks To Complete Primitive Challenge in Phasmophobia

Navigating the Primitive Challenge comes with its own set of unique rules. You'll start with a severely restricted loadout, as electronics are off-limits. This means no Flashlights, DOTs Projectors, Video Cameras, or any other electronic equipment, as shown below:

Screenshot by The Escapist Sanity Medication is also out of the equation, but you begin with a full Sanity meter to help buffer you against ghost activity. Your equipment includes two Tier 1 Crucifixes to prevent ghost hunts, Tier 2 Firelights, and a full set of Tier 1 Incense for additional protection.

For evidence gathering, you're equipped with two Tier 3 Ghost Writing books and two Tier 1 UV lights, which double as your light source and evidence tool. Additionally, you have two Tier 1 thermometers to check for freezing temperatures.

Identifying the ghost in these conditions requires sharp observation of behavioral traits unique to each ghost type. Our no-evidence cheat sheet can be a handy guide in this scenario.

Ouija Board in Phasmophobia To expedite your investigation, your primary goal is to locate the ghost quickly. The absence of a fuse box heightens the risk to your sanity in the dark, but increased ghost activity during this challenge should make it easier to find them.

An unconventional method involves using the provided Ouija Board, located in the laundry room to the left of the dining area on the first floor. By asking the ghost for its "favorite room," you can pinpoint its location at the cost of 50% of your sanity. Remember to say "Goodbye" to the board to avoid a Cursed Hunt. This method is especially useful in group settings as a safety measure.

How To Access Challenge Mode in Phasmophobia

Screenshot by The Escapist To dive into the Primitive Challenge, first select either Singleplayer or Multiplayer mode. Head to your Difficulty Settings, located above your profile ID, and find the ‘Challenge Mode’ option. After selecting ‘Apply,’ return to the main menu and manually choose 10 Ridgeview Court on the map board. Remember, the challenge's loadout is fixed and cannot be altered.

  • 5:00 pm Pacific Time
  • 6:00 pm Mountain Time
