Sidequest

14 Sidequests are featured in Silent Hill: Downpour in order to make the game less linear and to encourage players to explore the town of Silent Hill. None of them are mandatory, but each one of them adds to the background story of the game and unlocks Murphy's thought on specific characters in the extras menu.
