Alone in the Dark 3 Hints

How do I kill the guy with the pickaxe?

  • 1 of 5: If you have the Colt with all 6 bullets remaining, and you're on the easiest difficulty level, you can shoot him -- it should take all of your bullets, though.
  • 2 of 5: If not, you can fight him with the pickaxe from a bed in the prison.  But I would recommend saving your game before you start, since this is a difficult battle until you figure out how to do it.
  • 3 of 5: The trick is to fight so that he doesn't have a chance to fight back.  His reaction times are a bit slow.
  • 4 of 5: Start by running in against him.  Stay on his right side (Carnby's left).
  • 5 of 5: Then just start swinging.  As long as you're quick, he'll never have a chance to swing back.  You can kill him pretty easily if you get the rhythm right here.
