Riddick is a baaaaad man, in both senses of the word. He's bad as in bad-ass, and bad as in bad enough to get thrown into the roughest prison in any galaxy, Butcher Bay. Luckily, the first kinda bad will come in quite handy when trying to escape this hell-hole.

The events of The Chronicles of Riddick: Escape From Butcher Bay precede those of the movie Pitch Black, where the Riddick character made his first appearance. The launch of the game also coincides with the blockbuster release of the film The Chronicles of Riddick, which documents events after Pitch Black. Not that knowing the chronology will help you in any way when this game is kicking your ass.

But we will. IGN Guides has carefully crafted a guide to this dystopic adventure. We've done the hard time so you don't have to. We'll share each and every Cigarette Pack location, walk you through each vent crawl and fire fight, explain how to beat every boss, how to use every weapon, and where to stick your vent tool. From your first shiv, to your last mini-gun, we've got you covered.

Get the guide here.

To easily take out the riot guards, simply give the BLACK panel on their backs a couple of shot-gun blasts.

This is for when you are low on health, when you see one of the bugs flying around press X near it to eat it and it will restore low health meters.

Turn on all valves you come across in the game. If a guard stands near a valve that's on, they will pass out. Even works on the riot guards.

To easily take out the robot guards use the minigun, and try to line the bots up. The force of the gun will push the bots, so if they are in line with one-another they will both be helpless.

His attack pattern is as follows: left to right swing, over head smash. After he does this, go in and give about two or three strikes with the shiv. Repeat as necessary to kill him.

There are two parts to the snitch list. One is hidden in the work pass room where there are the two guards and the mechanic. Search for a loose panel behind the crates. After you give the package to Jagger Valance and you get the mission to get the bomb, head back to the second floor (like you're heading back to the upper mines). On you're way back you're going to see 2 miners standing around. Take them out. One of them has the snitch list plus a little axe-like club I think you'll really like.

If you already talked to the guy about killing all the Blueskins, forget it, it's too late you won't be able to complete this mission. This mission actually starts before you talk to him. After you kill Rust back in the single security level, on your way back to the courtyard, there is a Blueskin standing there. If you talk to him, he'll congratulate you on killing rust. When a guard isn't nearby, kill him.

The blue skin located in the Single Max section is not on the blueskin kill list, he dies in the cell block riot. The last blueskin needed to complete the mission is located in the upper mines. He gives you information about a keycard carrying guard you need to kill, but you do not need him to say it to do it. So you can just kill him right away or listen to his rambling. He attacks you after you kill the guard in the other room anyway.

In Double Max where you have to fight Bam, fight him and if you time it right, you can pick up his knuckleduster as soon as he dies. If you come back after you kill Abbott, it won't be there.
