  2. 2
    Head into the GRAVE area. Press the button, grab the diaries, and head down.
  3. 3
    Run down the UNDERGROUND HALLWAY, watching out for Spiders, to the door at the end.
  4. 4
    In the next UNDERGROUND HALLWAY, run through a gate, pull a lever, and take the only other door in the room.
  5. 5
    You are now in the KITCHEN. You have two options: head to the door directly across from Jill (leading to the KENNETH ROOM) or head to the elevator.
  6. 6
    The following section is optional but required to save Chris Redfield and get a better ending. Skip it if you want Chris to die.

    OPTIONAL SECTION START

    From the KENNETH ROOM, climb the stairs back to the KENNETH F HALL. A Sweeper (a Hunter with poison abilities) will appear. Kill it with Acid Rounds or your Magnum. The door to the F HALL will be torn down, renaming the room KENNETH F HALL.
  9. 9

    YELLOW GEM PUZZLE: Push the drawer cabinets near the center table toward the deer heads. Turn off the lights using the switch next to the door. Attempt to pull the YELLOW GEMSTONE from the deer head; it won't come out.
  14. 14
    QUICKLY RUN TO THE OTHER DEER HEAD and grab the RED GEMSTONE. (If you run out of item space, return to the save room and unload.)
  15. 15
    QUICKLY RUN BACK TO THE YELLOW GEMSTONE'S DEER HEAD.
  16. 16
    OPTIONAL SECTION END
Tips
  • Sweepers are dangerous; use your strongest weapons.
  • The Yellow Gem puzzle requires speed. Have space for the Red Gemstone or be prepared to backtrack.
