How to use Grandpa Abilities in Texas Chainsaw Massacre

Grandpa's abilities can only become active once Grandpa has been fed enough. You can keep track on the right side of the screen where the Grandpa icon is shown. Once his hunger meter is high enough, it will fill the three ability diamond icons next to it. Your equipped Grandpa ability will be shown in the first diamond and your teammates' in the others, and when they are filled, they will automatically activate. They will stay in play unless one of the Victims harms Grandpa.

It's very important to keep Grandpa fed as you play. He can greatly increase your chances of catching all the Victims before they escape, either by using his abilities or by detecting them wherever they are on the map. Ensure you unlock all his special abilities as well through the character's skill trees.
