How to Complete the Scarecrow Field Puzzle in Ebisugaoka in Silent Hill f

After the cutscene with Shu, you will find yourself in a deserted field with multiple scarecrows in front of you. Interact with the first scarecrow, which has a cloth covering its face. Grab the Sickle from its hand to acquire a weapon that you can use for combat, though it is not that durable.

Head on over to the scarecrows that are all in a different pose, and this is where you will have to start choosing the correct one to proceed. If you choose the correct one, the scarecrow will point in the direction where you need to go, and when you go a certain distance, the next set of scarecrows will pop up.
