Tormented Souls 2 All Breakable Wall Locations: Where to Use the Sledgehammer

What Counts as a Breakable Wall in Tormented Souls 2

If you have spent an hour swinging at suspicious stonework, you already know the game is stingy about which scenery actually breaks. Finding Tormented Souls 2 all breakable wall locations is harder than it sounds, because most of Caroline Walker's nightmare is built from very solid masonry. This guide covers Tormented Souls 2 all breakable wall locations that are properly documented, the tool each one needs, and exactly what waits on the other side.

Before hunting, separate the three kinds of destructible scenery the game uses. Mixing them up is the fastest way to waste a night.

• Cracked and brick walls — opened with the Sledgehammer. These are the ones that matter for progression and for the ending you get.
• Wooden barricades — the block sealing the gate between the Backstreets and the Sewer Walkway is cut with the Chainsaw, not smashed.
• Crates — breakable with melee attacks once you have proper light. They hide shortcuts and ladders, such as the two crates in the Mass Grave that conceal a ladder back up to the Burial Chamber.

The good news is that the documented Tormented Souls 2 all breakable wall locations are few, so there is not much to memorize. Both wall-type breakables use the same tool.

Tormented Souls 2 All Breakable Wall Locations at a Glance

Here is the short version. Both entries require the Sledgehammer, and both sit in areas you revisit rather than rooms you clear on the first pass.

Convent – Refectory: The Cracked Wall That Decides Your Ending

This is the one players most often miss, because it cannot be opened on your first visit. Unlike the other entry on this list of Tormented Souls 2 all breakable wall locations, the Refectory wall only becomes relevant once Lucia tells you to meet her in the underground bunker. At that point, head back to the Convent refectory and hit the broken section of wall with the Sledgehammer.

Behind it lies the way into the Convent's sleeping quarters, where the Duct Tape is stored. That tape is the key item in the game's good-ending chain: carry it to the Director's Office on the Other Side of the school and use it on the robot's neck to save Miguel in the real world.

Miss the wall, and you can still finish the game — just not with the best outcome. Practical tip: the Sledgehammer's swing is slow and Caroline takes a moment to recover, so make sure no enemies are trailing you before you start swinging at scenery.

Sewer Walkway Cave: The Red Brick Wall You Break on the Way Back

The second entry is the game's tutorial for the Sledgehammer, and it is the easiest of the Tormented Souls 2 all breakable wall locations to find because the game practically walks you into it.

After the Cemetery, you return to the Sewer Walkway with the Detachable Flashlight in hand, which finally lets you fight the crab creatures instead of running from them. Break the crates along the walkway, head through the passage, and crawl through the hole in the wall into the Cave. Joseph is waiting inside with bad news about the roads to the School, and the Sledgehammer is lodged in a corpse's skull nearby.

From there, continue through the passage at the far end of the cave, crawl through the second hole, and you will come face to face with a red-brick wall. Smash it with the new weapon and you are back out on the walkway, free to walk to the Backstreets exit.

How to Get the Sledgehammer Before You Need It

You cannot chase down Tormented Souls 2 all breakable wall locations without the Sledgehammer, so it pays to understand the route in advance.

1. Leave the Processing Plant and return to the Backstreets.
2. Follow the road toward the truck with its rear door hanging open, then take the path on the left.
3. Cut the wooden block on the gate with your Chainsaw to reach the Sewer Walkway. Keep the Lighter out and keep moving — the crab monsters cannot be fought while your hands are full.
4. Push through the Cemetery section of the game and pick up the Detachable Flashlight in the Mass Grave. Install the batteries you pulled from the cassette player earlier.
5. Return to the Sewer Walkway, clear the crabs, break the crates, and drop into the Cave to claim the Sledgehammer.

The weapon itself hits like a truck, but the wind-up is long, so treat it as a finisher rather than a mainstay in crowded rooms.

Why You Might Have Missed a Wall

Most players who come up short on Tormented Souls 2 all breakable wall locations simply passed them at the wrong time.

• Wrong point in the story. The Refectory wall is dormant until the late-game bunker conversation, so testing it early feels like a dead end.
• Wrong tool in hand. Early on you are locked into holding the Lighter, and darkness will kill you before you can smash anything. Crates you remember from your first walk through the Sewer Walkway only become breakable later.
• Wrong destruction type. The Chainsaw handles wooden blocks. It has not been documented breaking any wall, so do not burn time sawing at brickwork.
• Wrong expectations. Many sealed doors in this game are puzzle locks, not demolition jobs. If a wall does not look cracked or bricked over, it is almost certainly a puzzle.

Community reports sometimes mention additional destructible scenery, but the two walls above are the ones confirmed by full walkthrough documentation.

FAQ

Do you need the Sledgehammer for every breakable wall? In the documented routes, yes. Both wall-type breakables use the Sledgehammer, which makes it the single most important tool for Tormented Souls 2 all breakable wall locations. The Chainsaw is for wooden barricades, not masonry.

Where exactly is the Sledgehammer? Inside the Cave, reached through a hole in the wall off the Sewer Walkway near the Backstreets. After Joseph explains that the roads to the School are closed, pick it up from the corpse it is buried in.

Is the Refectory wall required to finish the game? No, but it is required for the good ending. Smashing it leads to the Convent sleeping quarters and the Duct Tape you need to save Miguel in the Director's Office on the Other Side.

Can you break walls in the Cemetery? No walls are documented there — only crates. One notable pair in the Mass Grave hides a ladder back up to the Burial Chamber, so break every crate you pass.
