Welcome to the Into Indie Games walkthrough for Sorry We’re Closed.
Sorry We’re Closed is a nostalgic, single-player survival horror game with rich lore, deep characters and multiple endings. Apart from the steps outlined in this walkthrough, it has a lot more to offer, so we highly recommend that you explore and interact with its world as much as possible.
For more information on Sorry We’re Closed beyond this walkthrough, check out the Steam page.
After you crash the train, walk past the dead demon and enter the door. Watch the cutscene with the Duchess. You will be in a long corridor now, the door down south is locked so head north. You can enter Room 901 to find an empty chair and the Massive Eyesore.
Speak to it for some more lore. Head out and head up. Save here if you want to and then enter the door. You will now be in a lobby with stairs heading down. Speak to Clarissa in the corner.
Head down the stairs and you will see Darrel speaking to the Duchess. Speak to Darrel and Cereberus in the corner. Then you can speak to T.A.D on the other side. You can sell Artifacts to upgrade your abilities here. Head out through the front door. The operator will come speak to you and give you a ride. On the ride they will offer you a choice.
I chose to think about it. You will be at the church now. There is a gate down at the beginning of the path that is closed so head to the church. You will find Benedict on the pew.
Speak to Benedict and exhaust all his dialogue options to get Logbook entries. eeHead out and talk to the angels infront of the church. You will meet Chamuel here. Head straight down and use the key to unlock the churchyard gate. Talk to Postman Creed and get another logbook entry. Enter your apartment building and talk to Stacy.
Head to your room to find the Duchess on your bed. Speak to her and then go to sleep. You will have some strange dreams and day 2 will start. Lucy will speak to you. This time I agreed to join them to take the Duchess down. They will ask for 3 things.
Head out and speak to Oakley about Darrel. Head up and speak to Clarissa. She will propose a plan to take out Darrel.
I agreed to take him out. Enter Culture Shock to catch the latest episode of Dying Petals by speaking to Marty. Talk to him to learn more about the lore. Speak to Donovan in the yellow jumpsuit next. Head out and talk to the newspaper vendor for the headlines of the day. Enter Darrel’s bar next.
Speak to Darrel and you will be presented with two options.
I chose to have him deliver the gift right away. This will drive a wedge between Oakley and Darrel. Head to the church now. Speak to Chamuel here.
He will now present you with two choices.
I asked him to accept the change of love. Chamuel will give you a letter for his boyfriend. Inside the church you will find Beloved, you can choose to give him Chamuel’s letter. I chose not to.
Walk over to Benedict and Robyn. They will suggest collecting the third eyes of the other victims and challenging The Duchess. Head back to town and speak to Postman Creed and give them Chamuel’s letter.
Head back to the Church and meet up with Robyn to go to the Aquarium. On the car ride over Robyn will ask you help free Benedict. I agreed with to help her.
At the Aquarium, break the box on the right for some ammo. Go around behind the counter to press the button – this will open the door.
Enter the aquarium, there is a bug on the ceiling. Kill it. A little further ahead, another bug. Kill that one too and exit this room. In the next room, clear the barricade on the door on the left.
Inside the stall you will find a demon in the last booth. It’s the same demon from the Underground station asking for the same food as before. Exit the stall. Enter the next door and kill the enemy there, you can heal at the sink. Both the other exits are locked so head to the apparitions near the big display.
Speak to Robyn after watching the Matilda cutscene. We need to fill the tank up with water. Enter the door Matilda went through. You will be charged by 4 demons as soon as you enter the room. Keep your distance and kill them all. Enter through the door near the top.
It’s the Pump Machinery room, we need to find a Water filter and water sample. Head through the door in the upper corner. Outside, is the cleaver monster. Deal with him with the Heartbreaker. Enter the main office and pick up the water bottle inside.
Exit the room and go left past the thorns. Enter the Frozen Storage room and pick up the Shotgun.
Inside the chiller you will find Frostbitten Fish. Head back to the bathroom stall and give it to the demon in the stall. Come back to this corner again and enter the room opposite to the Cold Storage room. Pick up the shotgun shells in the corner.
There is a piece of machinery at the bottom of the room but you can’t get to it yet. Exit the room through the door on the top. You still can’t use your third eye in this room, so don’t go into the room on the top corner.
There is a pretty tough enemy in there. But killing him will get you the Hot Sauce. Kill the demon in the narrow enclave and pick up the pistol ammo. Pick up the water bottle and exit this room. In this room, activate your third eye near the machinery we saw earlier.
This will cause the spikes to disappear and the machinery will fall to the floor. Go back around and pick up the water filter. Exit the room now and head to the right to the Reserve Tank room. Here, climb the ladder, take out the bugs and pick up the ammo. Pick up the Water Sample from the corner.
Go back to the Pump Machinery room and use the Water Filter and Water Sample in the console at the bottom right.
Arrange the pipes using the pressure switches to look like this below –
After you have connected all three points – hit the pressure switch up top. Go back to the Reserve tank room and climb up the ladder. Drop down the tank to pick up shotgun shells and an Artifact. Go back to the main hall and Robyn will have opened up a new path. Go through that door now. Head up the corridor and to the left to pick up some more ammo. Go around the display cases and to the stairs.
Head down the stairs and enter the door at the bottom. A spider monster is around the corner of the stairs so be mindful. In the next room, you will run across the Massive Eyesore again. Speak to him. Enter the door at the far end and the Eyesore will lock you inside. On the balcony go to the right first to pick up bullets then to the left and jump down the pallets.
Pick up the bullets here. Go out and to the left for a Water bottle. Go back to the right and turn the generator on – this will cause the generator to charge to 100% causing the thing to explode. The Massive Eyesore wont like that. Go back to the bottom corner and pick up the Shotgun shells and then a little bit up to access the other generator switch.
Turn this switch on too. As this generator charges up you will be ambushed, take out all the enemies. Go to the top right corner to find shotgun ammo and an Artifact. Go back up to the ramps and cross past the point where you jumped down and access the 3rd generator switch.
You will be ambushed again. Survive until the generator explodes. Then, head back to the room previously blocked by the Eyesore. Pick up the ID Card from here.
Head back to the stairs and go all the way up for some shotgun shells and exit back to the main aquarium. As soon as you exit, you will be rushed by two enemies -the latter of which will need a Heartbreaker shot to kill, or just shoot him till he is dazed and run past them. Head back to the other side now where the Level 3 access door is.
Use your keycard to get in. Watch Matilda’s memory in this area now. In the next area, clear the cramped corridor till you reach the stairs. Head up the stairs and enter the room on the right. Watch Matilda’s next memory here. Climb up the ladder above the main tank, cross over to the other side and drop down the ladder to check the pump mechanism. There are six switches here and you need to turn the pipes below in such a way as to connect all the pumps. The bottom half should look like this
And the top half like this
And the lowest part like this
Next, climb the ladder on the left and turn the switch on. Drop down the ladder and prepare for a boss fight.
The boss has four moves – she will slam his down straight down the middle and hold that position so you can get into 3rd Eye mode and shoot her hearts. This will allow you to charge up Heartbreaker and take 1 of her main hearts out. The other moves are – a water splash attack, she will slam her head down on one side and swipe at you and a tentacle swipe. All moves are telegraphed early so keep moving side to side and wait for your opening. Once she’s dead watch the cutscene and head through the door to The Duchess’ hotel.
