Stepping into the world of *Phasmophobia* during the Primitive weekly challenge might make you feel like you've regressed to the Stone Age, but unlike our cavemen ancestors, you'll be dealing with ghostly apparitions rather than mammoths. The challenge? Navigate and complete investigations at 10 Ridgeview Court without the crutch of electronics. It's a daunting task, but with the right approach, it's entirely achievable.

The Primitive Challenge stands out as one of the most demanding weekly challenges in Phasmophobia. You're tasked with identifying ghosts and completing investigations without any electronic aids, forcing you to rely heavily on your intuition and understanding of ghost behaviors. This challenge takes place at 10 Ridgeview Court, a house-style map known for its navigable layout and safe spots. To fully complete the challenge, you must successfully conduct three investigations.
Tips & Tricks To Complete Primitive Challenge in Phasmophobia
Navigating the Primitive Challenge requires you to adapt to a severely limited loadout. Without electronics, you're left without basic tools like Flashlights, DOTs Projectors, and Video Cameras. Even Sanity Medication is off the table, though you start with a full Sanity meter to help you endure the initial phase of the investigation. Your provided equipment includes two Tier 1 Crucifixes for preventing 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 "glowstick" UV lights, which serve dual purposes as both light sources and tools for detecting ultraviolet evidence. Additionally, you have two Tier 1 thermometers to identify freezing temperatures. Your success hinges on recognizing ghost behaviors and utilizing the limited tools effectively.

To locate the ghost swiftly, take advantage of the increased ghost activity during this challenge. Alternatively, use the Ouija Board found in the laundry room on the first floor to directly ask the ghost for its favorite room, though this will cost you 50% of your sanity. Always remember to say "Goodbye" to the board to prevent a Cursed Hunt, especially crucial in group settings.
