Friend and I successfully started this puzzle, in the long hallways with multiple doors/buttons to get the slippers. Only, now when we try to restart the puzzle - the occultist keeps catching us. Originally we hid behind the cabinet with the slippers on it before we grab them and that hid us well enough. We'd then use the buttons to guide each other through the doors. Only NOW, hiding behind the cabinet isn't enough - so we watched a 'play-through' by some streamers and they just booked it. So we tried running, after a few goes - we got through all the doors but the original occultist by the slippers followed us all the way out.
We don't want any advice for other puzzles, ONLY the slippers - if you remember how you completed this one. Thanks
