Your guide to the treacherous Mansion Tunnels in Resident Evil. Find key items, face off against a Hunter, and survive the rolling boulder.

Alright, let's get through this tricky part of the Mansion. We're heading into the tunnels, and there are a few things you'll want to keep an eye out for. Don't worry, I'll walk you through it.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    TUNNEL 1: Head straight for the first door on your right. Nothing too crazy here, just get through it.
  2. 2
    TUNNEL 2: In this next tunnel, keep an eye out on the floor for some ACID ROUNDS. Grab them, then head for the only door in this section.
  3. 3
    PIT ROOM: You'll enter a room with a pit. Look for a door that has a HANDGUN MAGAZINE near it – that's your next destination.
  4. 4
    ENRICO ROOM: Go forward into this room. You'll trigger a cut-scene with Enrico. After that, search his body; you're looking for the HEX CRANK. Once you have it, head down the hallway to Enrico's left and make for the door at the end. Be ready, a Hunter might show up here. If it does, just run away from it and head for the door. You might want to switch to a more powerful weapon if you have one handy.
  5. 5
    PIT ROOM (Return): Yep, we're back in the Pit Room. Now, backtrack to TUNNEL 2.
  6. 6
    TUNNEL 2 (Return): There's a Hunter waiting for you here. You'll need to kill it. Once it's down, head back towards TUNNEL 1.
  7. 7
    TUNNEL 1 (Return): Run across this tunnel until you see an ITEM BOX and a TYPEWRITER. This is your chance to save your game if you need to, but make sure you've got enough ammo before you proceed. Now, look for a gap in the floor. Use the HEX CRANK you found earlier to fill it, then head through into the BOULDER ROOM.
  8. 8
    BOULDER ROOM: As soon as you run to the right, a boulder will start rolling! Immediately RUN BACK TO THE DOOR you just came through to avoid getting crushed. After the cut-scene, turn right. You should see some SHOTGUN SHELLS – grab them. Then, run through the doors at the other end of the hall, near where the boulder was. To your right, just past the door, there's a GREEN HERB.
  9. 9
    GIANT SPIDER ROOM: You've made it through the tunnels and the boulder trap. Now you're in the Giant Spider Room.
