World of Horror School Scissors walkthrough

Try not to end up like Maru, marked by the Scissor Lady.

You might think a tutorial is easy to get through, but I am proof that's not the case in this game. Read our World of Horror Spine-Chilling Story of School Scissors walkthrough below to avoid my fate.

World of Horror Spine-Chilling Story of School Scissors walkthrough guide

The mystery revolves around the disappearances of boys from your school caused by the Tall woman with scissors. Your goal is to summon her via a ritual and defeat Scissor Woman.

In the opening scene, you'll see that you have four action options:

  1. Access your storage.
  2. Explore school.
  3. Perform the ritual.
  4. Check out school lockers.

First, you'll want to access your storage (1) to retrieve your friend's diary. In it, you will find the sigil drawing you'll need to draw later to summon the Scissor Woman. The sigil drawing is randomized, so you must read the diary on every new run. The next step is checking out the lockers (4).

Open only the locker in the middle to find a baseball bat you can equip as a weapon. Opening the locker to the left will cause -1 Reason as it contains some creature. The locker to the right can't be opened without a tiny key, which you can get in a different mystery when doing the regular run, but not in the tutorial.

After this, you'll explore the school (5) five times. While exploring, you will get randomized events that lower your reason/stamina or increase your EXP. With luck, you'll get to the Scissor Woman with your reason and stamina barely diminished.

You will always encounter an enemy on the third investigation. This is a combat tutorial that prepares you to deal with Scissor Woman. These enemies aren't that difficult to defeat but still try to avoid as much damage as possible.

After the third exploration, you'll be asked to draw the sigil for the ritual. Use buttons 1 and 2 to change the sigil on the blackboard and match it to the one in your friend's diary. Once you have the correct (or incorrect one, depending on the ending you are going for), you can continue exploring the school.

When you explore the school for the fifth (and final) time, you'll find the holy candles, which means you can complete the ritual. You summon the Scissor Woman and enter combat with her. The best way to defeat her, especially in the tutorial-adjusted mystery, is to focus on attacking.

What I found works best for me is a chain of 'Prepare to attack,' 'Strong attack,' and 'Attack with a weapon.' Once you defeat her or die by her hand, you complete the tutorial and finish the investigation of Scissor Woman.

You achieve ending A by drawing the correct sigil (this is why it's essential to check the sigil in the diary) and defeating the Scissor Woman.

School Scissors Ending B

To get Ending B of Scissor story, you must draw the sigil incorrectly and defeat Scissor Woman (Horror), the more powerful version of Scissor Woman. You can use combo attacks, but don't forget to dodge if you want to survive.

Ending C

Ending C is accomplished by either your reason or stamina reaching 0 and getting killed by the Scissor Woman or Scissor Woman (Horror).

Ending D

You can only achieve this ending in Timeline B, which isn't available during the tutorial, but it is available when you investigate this mystery in the regular run. This is also the only ending you can get on this timeline.
