This guide will provide a detailed walkthrough of how to safely navigate the Statue Room in the game “Alone in the Dark”, including how to collect the three arrows and how to successfully avoid the spiders.
Step-by-Step Statue Room Guide
1. Approaching the Statue of Artemis
Start by heading towards the statue in the room. It’s a statue of Artemis, the Greek goddess of the hunt.
2. Searching the Statue
Perform a detailed search of the statue. Upon doing this, you will find three arrows.
3. Collecting the Arrows
Make sure to pick up all three arrows. These arrows can be used with your bow but hold onto them for now as they’re needed for a specific encounter later in the game. So, make sure not to shoot any of them at this moment.
4. Dealing with the Spider Infestation
The moment you pick up the arrows, spiders will descend from the ceiling. Despite being weak, these spiders can’t be killed. Your best approach here is to quickly backtrack through the door from which you came. Ignore the double doors in the room.
5. Leaving the Room
The spiders won’t follow you out of the room, but if you venture back into the Statue Room, you’ll find them still there blocking your way further in. Don’t worry, you don’t have to return to this room again.
6. Navigating the Remaining Rooms
In the future, you’ll find a different route leading to that unvisited room, so there’s no need to worry about how to get past the spiders blocking your path.
7. Back In The Lobby
You will find yourself back in the lobby. This time you will need to go to the other side of the stairway. You will see an open passage and a door. Go through the door and it will bring you to the kitchen.
