Granny: Complete Survival Guide
Everything you need to know to escape from Granny's house
🎮What is Granny?
Granny is a first-person survival horror game developed by DVloper. First released in November 2017 on Android, this terrifying game has since been downloaded over 100 million times, making it one of the most popular mobile horror games ever created. The game is part of the Slendrina universe, connecting to DVloper's other horror titles.
You wake up in a dark, decrepit house with no memory of how you got there. Your only goal: escape within 5 days while avoiding the terrifying Granny who roams the halls, listening for any sound you make.
👵Meet Granny
Granny is the main antagonist and the reason this game is so terrifying. Here's what makes her so dangerous:
🔊 Super Hearing
Granny can hear everything. Drop an item? She heard it. Knock over a vase? She's coming. Step on a creaky floorboard? You better hide. Her hearing is extremely sensitive, and she will immediately investigate any noise you make. The key to survival is moving slowly and carefully.
🏃 Fast Movement
Once alerted, Granny moves surprisingly fast for her age. She can navigate the house quickly and will check common hiding spots.
🔨 The Bat
Granny carries a bloody bat and won't hesitate to use it. One hit and you're knocked out, losing a precious day.
🎯How to Play
🕐 5-Day Time Limit
You have exactly 5 days to escape. Each time Granny catches you, you lose one day. Run out of days, and it's game over. The pressure of the time limit adds incredible tension to every decision you make.
🔍 Explore & Collect
Search every drawer, shelf, and corner for items. You'll need keys, tools, and special objects to unlock the main door. Important items include the Hammer, Cutting Pliers, Padlock Key, and more.
🧩 Solve Puzzles
The main door has multiple locks that require different items to open. You'll also need to disable the door alarm, find the car key for alternate escapes, and solve various environmental puzzles throughout the house.
🙈 Hide & Survive
When Granny is near, find a hiding spot! You can hide under beds, inside wardrobes, or in lockers. Stay hidden until she leaves the area. But be careful — she might check your hiding spot!
🗝️Essential Items Guide
🔨 Hammer
Used to remove wooden planks blocking doors and windows. Essential for multiple escape routes.
✂️ Cutting Pliers
Required to cut the wire on the main door alarm system. Without this, opening the door triggers a loud alarm.
🔑 Padlock Key
Opens the padlock on the main door. One of several locks you need to open to escape.
🚗 Car Key
For the car escape route. You'll also need the Spark Plug and Engine Part to make the car work.
💡Pro Tips for Survival
- 1.
Crouch to move silently: Walking normally makes noise. Always crouch when moving to avoid detection. It's slower but much safer.
- 2.
Memorize item locations: Items spawn randomly each game, but learning common spawn points helps you search more efficiently.
- 3.
Use distractions: Throw items to create noise in one area while you sneak to another. The Tranquilizer Gun can also knock Granny out temporarily.
- 4.
Know your hiding spots: Always have an escape plan. Know where the nearest bed, wardrobe, or locker is before you start exploring a new area.
- 5.
Don't drop items on hard floors: Dropping items makes noise. Place items carefully in safe spots or on carpeted areas to avoid alerting Granny.
