The Mortuary Assistant tasks you with managing a shift in a mortuary and demon possession on your own in a single night. But don’t worry, we’re here to help you. Here’s a breakdown of what roles the marks play in the game, and why they are important.
On your checklist, the second step of the whole procedure once taking out the body from cold storage is to check the body for marks. Areas of the body that are checked include the head, left shoulder, right shoulder, left leg, left arm, right arm, and right leg. There is a counter that keeps you in the loop on how many marks you need to locate.

Why Marks Are Important in The Mortuary Assistant
When dealing with a potentially possessed body after the initial first body, the appearance of new marks on the body is one indicator of possession. These will be obvious but take time to appear, such as scratches, scorch marks and sigils. However, you must ensure to monitor the entire body for jittering and subtle movements in the face alongside new marks appearing to correctly deduce which body is possessed. The demon can trick you when only marks appear on the body – take into account everything, including when events are triggered.
It is of great importance to correctly identify the marks since these can lead to different endings. For example, if you burn the correctly identified possessed body by using the correct sigil on the right marks, you will get the good ending.
