Morgue in Alan Wake 2: walkthrough

10 nov 2023 at 13:48

The Morgue location is the culmination of the very first mission of Saga Anderson titled "Return 1: Invitation." To complete the mission, you need to find clues and solve the puzzle using the Mind Place. In this guide, you'll learn the sequence of actions to finish the mission.

How to Complete the Quest

Head to the police station with Alex Casey and go down to the basement to examine the corpse.

Inspect the deceased Robert Nightingale, who turns out to be a former FBI agent. During the external examination, the character needs to find several clues:

  • Examine the victim's right shoulder. You'll see marks resembling text. This is the first clue;
  • Inspect the heart of the deceased, which is in the tray next to him. Some inscriptions are also visible on it, but they cannot be deciphered. This is the second clue;
  • Examine the head of the corpse. The agent will conclude that the body was placed in the water after the murder. This is the third clue;
  • Inspect the cut on the victim's chest. Inside the body, you'll find some item. This is the fourth clue;
  • Examine the right hand of the corpse. Wounds will be visible on it. This is the fifth and final clue.

Go to the Mind Place and compare the clues obtained during the inspection. 

In the filing cabinet where the files are stored, choose "Murder at Cauldron lake." When the card with the inscription "Anything to learn from the body?" appears, drag the photo with bruises on the arm. 

Next, a card with the inscription "Cause of death?" will appear, drag the photo with the cut on the chest. 

Drag the photos with the shoulder and heart of the victim to the top of the board. A chain called "Ritual Writing?" will appear. 

After correctly arranging the clues, a cutscene will start, and Saga will pull a page with inscriptions from Robert's chest. 

How to Defeat Nightingale

After the cutscene, Nightingale's corpse will come to life and grab the agent. Once control switches to you, run towards the illuminated area, which is safe. 

Wait for Saga's phrase "Gotta move" and go to the door on the right. 

Run to the right along the corridor, where you'll find a pistol. Pick it up. Shoot the walking dead six times in the head, and it will disappear.

How to Escape from the Morgue

To leave the location, you need to find out where Robert disappeared. Talk to Alex and examine the area. 

Inspect the lockers and sink. Next to the furniture, there will be a page with text; pick it up. 

Talk to Casey again (choose all the options for the answers). After the conversation, the opportunity to exit the location will appear.
