Neverwinter Nights Hints
How do I get into the prison from the Tanglebrook Estate?
1 of 5: After killing the stink beetles in one room, you can go through a door to get to a giant chessboard area.
2 of 5: Don't worry; you don't have to solve some big, complicated chess problem here, like you do in so many other games.
3 of 5: As a matter of fact, you can just walk around the perimeter of the board to get to the other side. (Though you might first want to carefully venture onto the board in Detect mode to get the +1 magic blade weapon from next to Lady Tanglebrook's body.)
4 of 5: NOTE: There are several interactive pawns on the chessboard that you can bash in order to deactivate small clusters of traps. You can shoot the pawns to pieces from a distance or carefully walk up to them and bash them with melee weapons.
5 of 5: Once on the other side of the chessboard, kill the fire beetles and use the door to enter the prison.
