How To Complete the Primitive Challenge in Phasmophobia – Weekly Challenge

Embarking on the Primitive weekly challenge in *Phasmophobia* might feel like a trip back to the Stone Age, but unlike our cave-dwelling ancestors, we've got ghosts to contend with. The challenge? To complete investigations without the aid of electronics. It's a daunting task, but with the right approach, it's definitely achievable.

The Primitive Challenge stands out as one of the toughest weekly challenges in *Phasmophobia*. You're tasked with identifying the ghost and completing investigations at 10 Ridgeview Court without any electronic assistance. This means relying heavily on your intuition and understanding of ghost behavior. To fully complete the challenge, you must successfully conduct three investigations.

Tips & Tricks To Complete Primitive Challenge in Phasmophobia

Completing the Primitive Challenge requires a strategic approach, especially given the limited equipment. You won't have access to any electronics, including Flashlights, DOTs Projectors, or Video Cameras. Sanity Medication is also off the table, but you start with a full Sanity meter to help you navigate the darkness.

Your provided equipment includes two Tier 1 Crucifixes to prevent ghost hunts, Tier 2 Firelights, and a full set of Tier 1 Incense for 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. Additionally, you have two Tier 1 thermometers to detect freezing temperatures.

Identifying the ghost without traditional evidence means paying close attention to their unique behavioral traits. Our no-evidence cheat sheet can be a valuable resource here. To locate the ghost quickly, take advantage of their increased activity during this challenge. Alternatively, use the Ouija Board found in the laundry room to ask the ghost its favorite room, though this will cost you 50% of your sanity. Remember to say "Goodbye" to the board to avoid triggering a Cursed Hunt.
