What do I do in this long, dark tunnel?
  • 1 of 5: Fight several Terrors.
  • 2 of 5: At the south end of the tunnel, there's a hole leading into a Sea Monster's area that you can crouch down and go through.
  • 3 of 5: You might want to shoot the Sea Monster to death first, or you could just dive in and quickly go for the underwater tunnel on the other side of the pool.
  • 4 of 5: It's very dark when you're underwater, so either note where the underwater entrance is (you can see it from the other side before you jump in) and go straight for it, or use the game's map view to help you find it. Also, you might want to save your game before diving into the pool, since you could get stuck in the little underwater tunnel and drown.
  • 5 of 5: Move through the tunnel until you fall into another watery area.
