Demon's Tomb: The Awakening Hints

How can I control Sam?

  • 1 of 11: Use the syntax "SAM, [command]".
  • 2 of 11: Sam will do simple things for Richard throughout the game, though he's not the brightest or most obedient dog in the world.
  • 3 of 11: Some commands Sam understands are SIT, STAY, FETCH, and DROP.
  • 4 of 11: FETCH and DROP tell Sam to pick up or put down an item, respectively.  You can also give Sam an item to carry for you.
  • 5 of 11: Sam can only carry one thing at a time.  If you give him an object when he already has one, he'll drop the first and take the second.
  • 6 of 11: Though Sam is helpful, there are several places in the game where he can get you into trouble.  For example, if you let him follow you down to the beach, you will trip over him.
  • 7 of 11: Telling Sam to STAY will keep him occupied only for a short time.
  • 8 of 11: There are two ways to keep Sam in one place indefinitely.
  • 9 of 11: The first way is to give him the bone.
  • 10 of 11: The second is to lead him into the garage at Culcombe Manor.
  • 11 of 11: To get Sam to follow you again, simply take the bone or speak to him.  He'll get the message.
