All Collectibles & Map — Alone in the Dark

Whether you are looking to scratch that completionist itch or check off some achievements, you have stumbled upon the right guide: this one will help you find all of the Locks & Keys, Clues, and Lagniappes in Alone in the Dark.

In the section below you will find an extensive map of all of the collectibles in the game with a simple list to follow along. The rest of the guide will feature a detailed legend with links to our dedicated guides if you get stuck or prefer to take things step by step.


The image below will be your shortcut to finding all Locks, Key Items, Clues, and Lagniappes in the game. Note that some of the areas, as well as Chapter 3, are not depicted on the maps.

You can follow the list for your 100% completion of Collectibles, for achievements like “You Can’t Keep Me Out!” (Open all of the safes and locks in the game), “Look At All the Free Stuff I Got!” (Find all the Lagniappes), and “Librarian” (Read all the clues). Note that you will have to play the game both as Edward and Emily to get all of the items.
