Alone in the Dark 2 Hints
How do I get through the two locked doors on the middle level?
1 of 13: I thought that this puzzle was a bit of a stretch, and I couldn't quite figure out how you were supposed to do everything. Expect the occasional spoiler, although I'll try to be as subtle as possible.
2 of 13: You need to use the cannon to blow up the guard room.
3 of 13: But you first need to free the cannon.
4 of 13: By cutting its chain.
5 of 13: Use the pliers on cannon and then push it away from the wall. (Pushing it is a bit difficult, since the normal push command doesn't work, but you can do it if you walk Carnby into and around the cannon.)
6 of 13: Then all you need is something to blow up.
7 of 13: The powder keg will work.
8 of 13: Open the door to the guard room opposite the cannon, and drop the keg in the room.
9 of 13: All you need to do now is ignite the cannon.
10 of 13: Use the red hot poker from the room below to do this.
11 of 13: You should find a pouch of gold in the room, somewhere in all that debris.
12 of 13: The sound of falling gold will attract people.
13 of 13: Use the gold in the hallway in front of the kitchen door, and the cooks will let you into the kitchen.
