Alone in the Dark 4: The New Nightmare Hints
How do I kill the creatures roaming around the attic?
1 of 6: Eventually, you'll find a weapon and can use that to shoot the creatures as you would shoot any other. However, the creatures that attack you with their tongues do take a fair number of rounds to kill even then.
2 of 6: There's often another way you can kill them.
3 of 6: They don't like light.
4 of 6: Shining your flashlight at one chases it away for a while.
5 of 6: Brighter lights can kill the creature.
6 of 6: If the room you're in has a light switch, flip that on, and all of the tongue creatures in the room will die. Not all rooms have lights, though, so sometimes your only option is to chase the creatures away long enough to go somewhere else.
