More than 38000 words, 700 screenshoots and detailed descriptions of 60 levels – welcome to a megaguide to The Chronicles of Riddick: Assault on Dark Athena! This text has been divided into three main chapters:

The first chapter consists of a very detailed walktrough of a remake of Escape from Butcher Bay. Naturally I didn’t copy-paste any old walkthroughs. Everything is new and my guide also contains information about possible changes, including new locations of some of the bonus items. As for its content, you’ll find hints on how to get to other locations, how to solve main and optional quests and how to defeat your opponents. You’ll also find out where to find all cigarette packs which are bonus items of this campaign. I’ve put most of my efforts into explaining how to act stealth, so you won’t have to worry about taking part in open combat situations. The only exceptions are a few levels where you have to battle mutants, aliens or human bosses.

The second chapter of my guide contains a full description of an entirely new campaign of The Chronicles of Riddick, titled Assault on Dark Athena. Like before, you’ll find out a lot of useful hints on how to complete the game. Sadly the new part takes more attention into combat rather than stealth. Obviously I’ve expalined how to defeat toughest guards, machines and bosses. Some missions also contain maps of the surrounding area, helpful in finding your way to your current destination. There aren’t any cigarette packs in Assault on Dark Athena, because bounty cards are bonus items in this game. Make sure to read descriptions of all missions in order to find them.

The third chapter should provide much needed help for rookie players, especially since both games have rather high difficulty settings. This chapter contains information on how to defeat enemies properly, how to stay in the shadows and how to keep Riddick alive. There’s also a list of all weapons that can be used in the game to wreak havoc.

Four different colors have been used to mark some of the most important features of the game. They should provide assistance while reading the guide. Here’s what they mean:

Orange color – This color marks encounters with human characters (friend or foe), as well as with all sorts of robots (including mechs, drones and little spiders).

Red color – This color marks locations of health cartridges, NanoMED stations and health increase stations.

Blue color – In Escape from Butcher Bay blue color marks locations of cigarette packs. As for Assault on Dark Athena, it marks locations of bounty cards.

Green color – I’ve used this color to mark some of the interactive items Riddick will be allowed to use. Some of them are collected from the environment and the rest is taken out directly from his inventory.

Have fun playing the game!
