Arx Fatalis Hints

How do I open the gate in the first room?

  • 1 of 5: Try pulling the levers on either side of the gate.
  • 2 of 5: If the levers don't seem to be working, take a look at the rest of the room for any suspicious features.
  • 3 of 5: You'll notice a pressure plate directly in front of the gate. Stepping on it doesn't seem to have much of an effect.
  • 4 of 5: Place an object on the plate, then try the levers again.
  • 5 of 5: Now you can pull the levers, which will awaken the sleeping zombies. After pulling both levers and defeating the zombies, the gate will open.
