Alone in the Dark 4: The New Nightmare Hints
What should I do at the seven-sided room in the fortress?
1 of 11: Look at the altar in the middle of the room.
2 of 11: Notice that there are seven plates on the altar, and you can slide any one of these.
3 of 11: See what happens when you slide a plate.
4 of 11: Something seems to happen to the room.
5 of 11: Or more accurately, to the walls.
6 of 11: Each time you slide a plate, the walls will rotate.
7 of 11: The opening in the wall will always be behind you as you're facing the plate you just slid.
8 of 11: Slide each of the plates, and you can find something in the opening.
9 of 11: Collect seals from six of the seven openings. Just in case you missed one, double-check your inventory to make sure you have all six seals. You can always come back to get them later, but it never hurts to make sure you have them all now.
10 of 11: The last plate opens the door back out of this room.
11 of 11: If you've gotten turned around, that plate is the one that the face in the center of the altar is looking at.
