Ok, so you're new to the game? Don't worry, we've got you! Here is how to play Granny for ABSOLUTE begginers. We won't tell you everything, because we don't want to spoil the fun for you.
BEFORE STARTING YOUR FIRST GAME:
Select "Easy" mode. It's your first time playing, so keep it on easy. Granny moves slower, and there are no creaks. If you're up for a challenge, you can sellect normal mode to. This has an extra lock than easy mode, though.
Do not turn Darker mode on. This is your first round. Unless you want a challenge, do not turn this feature on.
Nightmare mode is optional for you. This just makes everything bloody and has rats that bite you if come in intact that alert Granny. It's best NOT to turn it on.
Do not put on "Extra Locks" unless you want a challenge. This adds three more locks on the door than easy mode.
DO NOT AT ALL SELECT EXTREME MODE - YOU WILL LOSE. Same for Hard Mode but it isn't AS hard.
Read the given description. It's important.

Escape
There is a Granny that has captured you inside her house to play a brutal game. You need to escape the house. The main escape and one of the easiest is the door escape. This requires a bunch of things, which you will be able to find out by interacting with the door. There are other escapes, but it's best you do this first.
2. Get a weapon (Optional)
Since you've just started, you should probably look for a weapon. This isn't mandatory; but it isn't not reccomended. On easy mode, even for beginners, the game is pretty easy to beat without weapons. While it is mandatory to get the crossbow sometimes (to drop the screwdriver which is located on a shelf next to Granny's Kitchen, and is way out of reach), you don't need a weapon. But if you find a weapon key, then navigate your way to find a small cupboard which is called a weapon stash. Inside you will find a crossbow with infinitely re-usable darts.
ABOUT THE AREAS
Attic
The attic has a few things that are handy in beating the game. A few items spawn in the attic. There are a few planks that lead to another room which are loose, and once they are stepped on it breaks, ultimatley loosing one life. The way to solve this is by gettting one of the planks in the room by getting a hammer, and placing it on the hole. The attic also has a stairway to a room with a spider, which we'll talk about in the next one.
2. Special Room
This room includes a spider inside an open box and a cupboard. If you try and go to the cupboard, the spider will attack you. There are three ways to reach that cupboard.
1 - Get meat: This can be anywhere in the house, or in the spider cellar. (read bellow for spider cellar). Place the meat on a bowl that is at the safe part of the room. The spider will eat it for a few seconds while you can quickly got the cupboard and get the item you need. If you're not quick enough... well, you'll find out what happens.
2 - Shoot the button - If you enter the room, you will see a red button. If you get close to that (by going on the die of the spider, so it can't see you), and shoot it, it will close the lid on the spider's box, meaning the room will be free to explore for that day. This is the safer way of avoiding the spider. If you want to resort with a little violence...
3 - Shoot it: You can always kill the spider with a Gun, not a crossbow. To make a gun, you will need to find three pieces of it and assmble it in the garage, which is below the basement. Shooting the spider will make Granny mad, though. Her eyes will turn red, she will know exactly where you are even if you are hiding. If you are going to shoot the spider then keep a bullet left over for Granny.
3. Spider - Cellar
The spider cellar is one of the second main parts of Granny's house. It has a spider with the face of Granny's daughter that haunts the cellar and will attack anyone (apart from family) if seen in the cellar.
