JUst ran into this problem as well today and figure to not take the dead guy's ID card. I just went in the vault to the shelf and the REVIEW was there. I hope this helps out those that are stuck in this building. I know that everyone doesn't have to do this and it might not help but its a try.

Guard Tower Safe

While your chosen puzzle difficulty affects the behavior of the safes dials, all difficulties share the same code (11725) and starting dial position (42416)

Easy:
Turn dial 1 right three clicks
Turn dial 2 right one clicks
Turn dial 3 left three clicks
Turn dial 4 left two clicks
Turn dial 5 left four clicks

Normal:
Turn dial 3 right two clicks
Turn dial 2 right one clicks. Dials 2 and 3 are in position.
Turn dial 4 left two clicks
Turn dial 5 left four clicks
Turn dial 1 right three clicks

Hard:
Turn dial 3 right twoclicks
Turn dial 2 right one clicks
Turn dial 4 right one click
Turn dial 5 right right clicks
Turn dial 1 left one click

For the hard one, can you clarify what was meant by Dial 5 right right clicks. as i had to do this one turns to work out what it was (and reloading each time as once wrong, its impossible to start again). I got past it but thought it may help others if this part could be amended.

[Ameno]

Thanks for the guide. I'll def. be using it for the puzzles as I am horrible at them.

I was wondering the same thing, I figured it out you need to turn it 5 clicks to the right.

I missed one at the underground train station near the beginning of the game and considered re-starting until I read that you can get away with missing one.
As your guide is one short anyway I ended up missing out on the achievement and will now have to collect them all again on my 2nd playthrough. Whilst I appreciate you putting the effort in to make a guide, you should at least have mentioned this upfront instead of passing it off as a complete list!

I missed more than one on my playthrough and still got the achievement. You must have missed another one some where along the way

I did, whichever one it is that isn't on your list.
I even went back through the journal and ticked them off one at a time to see what I was missing but I had every single mystery in your guide except for the note on the hanging body.

I've since found out however that one of the collectibles available at the memorial building is able to be registered inifinitely so perhaps you got that more than once? Saves me having to worry about finding them all again on my second playthrough anyway.

Thank you so much for this information. For the life of me I couldn't figure out why I wasn't getting to pick up the book. Your solution worked first time. Thanks

Thanks for this guide. I hate Silent Hill games (too much wandering around for hours making no progress) and this guide made it fun.
