Complete walkthrough for Chapter 1: The Prison in Little Nightmares III, including finding Nome 01/13 and unlocking the Highly Sprung trophy.
Walkthrough
- 1After selecting New Game and watching the opening sequence, you awaken on a trunk in The Maw.
- 2Move right down the dark corridor, holding the run button, and ignite your lighter to see.
- 3Continue right until you hit a dead end with a lantern; approach it to illuminate the area and make progress on the "Light Up Your Life" trophy/achievement.
- 4To the right of the lantern, grab onto the hatch by holding the interact button and move away to open it.
- 5Hold the crawl button to crawl through the vent.
- 6After exiting the vent, follow the path right up a staircase to a small alcove with Statue [01/10]; pick it up and then press the throw button to break it.
- 7Continue right and crawl under the boarded-up doorway to enter a bedroom.
- 8Climb on the box next to the bed to reach the mattress.
- 9Jump up and down on the mattress multiple times to unlock the Trophy/Achievement: Highly Sprung.
- 10Jump toward the opening on the right and hold the grab button to grab onto the ledge and pull yourself up.
- 11In the next room, grab onto the chair beneath the hung man and push or pull it to the doorway.
- 12Climb up the chair and use it to grab onto the doorknob.
- 13Follow the dark corridor right until you come across a fridge; open it, which will cause a little guy to run right.
- 14Continue right and crawl through the small passage to find another lantern next to a Nome [01/13]. To unlock the trophy/achievement "Little Lost Things", you need to find all 13 Nomes in the game and give them a hug by approaching them and pressing the interact button.
- 15Backtrack through the passage to the fridge and climb up the shelves to a new level.
- 16Run right while avoiding slugs and jump across the gaps.
- 17In the next room, pull the lever above the box to open the door on the right.
- 18Jump across the gap and enter the room on the other side.
- 19Grab onto one of the boards to the right and pull it off to continue.
- 20As you head into the next room, the floor will collapse beneath your feet, dropping you into a tar-like substance.
- 21Quickly make your way right while avoiding the slugs to push down the wooden door.
- 22Jump across the gap and light the lantern nearby.
- 23Climb up the wooden planks on the right to reach the next level.
- 24Carefully cross the beam on the left.
- 25Head up some stairs and follow the wooden walkway toward the screen until it ends.
- 26Jump right and continue up more stairs.
- 27Follow the walkway the long way around until you reach a lever; rotate it to open a nearby doorway.
- 28Let go and hop across the gap to pass beneath the door before it closes.
- 29On the other side of the doorway, open the hatch on the back wall to release a Nome.
- 30Follow the Nome through a hole on the right wall.
- 31Climb the makeshift rope on the right to continue.
- 32After dropping into a bathroom, light the lantern in the corner.
- 33Push open the door to the rest of the bathroom area.
- 34Close the door to spot a lever.
- 35Pull the box of toilet paper beneath the lever to reach it, cutting power to the area.
- 36Squeeze through the bars on the right into a playroom.
- 37Keep running right and squeeze through another set of bars before the power returns, electrifying the bars.
- 38Continue right past a number of prison cells.
- 39In the next room, take cover (press the cover button to crouch behind walls or objects) behind the pillar and boxes to the left of the children turned to stone.
- 40Avoid the gaze of the large eye as you cross to the other side of the room to avoid being turned to stone yourself. Run to the back of the room, near the cell doors, and cross to the right, then run forward and right when the eye is looking away.
- 41After passing the eye, climb atop the single metal box and light the lantern to your left.
- 42Climb up the metal mesh to the upper floor.
- 43Follow the stack of boxes to the right and drop off the right side to land on a different stack of boxes.
- 44Crawl through the mesh box on the right wall to find a hidden storage room with another lantern and a Nome [02/13].
- 45Return to the previous room and drop to the floor.
- 46Climb the boxes again to the second floor.
- 47Head left over the eye and enter an open cell on the other side of the area with finger paintings.
- 48Grab the Statue [02/10] in the front right corner and smash it.
- 49Backtrack to the right and exit the prison ward into a bedroom.
- 50Hide under the bed on the right and wait for a warden to enter and leave to the left.
- 51Once it's clear, head right into a closet and climb the mesh boxes.
- 52Jump onto the shelves to enter another vent.
- 53After crawling through a vent and dropping into an adjacent room, you will experience uncontrollable hunger.
- 54Keep heading right, crouching in pain multiple times, and grab and eat the food that the NPC (non-player character — anyone the game controls, not you) throws through the bars.
- 55Climb the boxes to the right and crawl through the gap in the metal bars.
- 56Continue right through a shower room to a walkway with electrified bars on the other side.
- 57Climb the box near the doorway.
- 58Follow the path into the background and climb the mesh boxes or jump to the back wall and then climb the mesh boxes on the left.
- 59When you can no longer climb up, press the back jump button.
