Indigo Prophecy Hints
Help! How do I get out in the dark?
1 of 8: Remember the scene in the archives? This is the same, only with homicidal maniacs. So no big deal.
2 of 8: When the lights went out, Carla was facing in the right direction. Keep your breathing even and start walking forward.
3 of 8: When Carla says something about someone being right there, stop moving and hold your breath (that is, don't press the arrow keys). As soon as they move on, starting walking and breathing again; Carla will tell you when it's okay to move again.
4 of 8: When you reach an area where you can just make out the mottled green floor (about where you encounter the first maniac), you're at the main hall. Turn left. (If you go the wrong way, you'll die no matter how calm your breathing is.)
5 of 8: Walk forward into the dark; you should pass open blue doors on both sides and another maniac.
6 of 8: Pretty soon you can see a lighted green keypad in the distance. Aim for that.
7 of 8: The lights will come back on just after you go through the keypad doorway.
8 of 8: If you find this whole scene impossibly hard, you might consider going into the Options, Visual, and cranking the gamma all the way to the right just for this one scene. That makes it a lot easier to find your way out.
