Iron Blight Walkthrough Guide – Weapons

Iron Blight immerses you in a tense survival horror experience, navigating eerie abandoned locales rife with mutants and environmental puzzles. Players face the urgent challenge of tracking down essential tools and weapons required to unlock new areas and survive relentless mutant attacks.

Advancing through Iron Blight requires careful exploration to locate critical items and weapons, alongside mastering environmental puzzles. Success leads to unlocking numerous achievements tied to your combat and exploration prowess.

Important: Currently, fully completing Iron Blight is impossible because the Recorded achievement cannot be unlocked due to a developer-side issue. This may be resolved in a future update, but presently, it remains unattainable.

Iron Blight Walkthrough

The game unfolds across two main chapters and a concluding section, with familiar mechanics requiring players to collect specific items to advance through locked areas. Each stage builds on the last, demanding attention to detail and item management.

Chapter 1

Begin by completing the prologue to set the stage for the horrors ahead.

Achievement Unlocked: I’ll Be Back

Next, your task is to locate three key items needed to unlock blocked doors.

• Master Key: Found inside the shower room.
• Screwdriver: Located in the room opposite the library.
• Hammer: Situated in the far section of the level.

After collecting these, step outside to continue your journey.

Make your way to the barn and pick up the Bolt Cutter, then circle around the hostel building.

You will reach GG’s car, an area locked behind a gate requiring two further items:

• Key to the gate
• AKB

Both are found near the gate. Gathering these triggers waves of mutant enemies that must be defeated to proceed.

Once the mutants are eliminated, you can advance to the next chapter.

Achievement Unlocked: Nobody Sleeps Here Anymore

Chapter 2

The focus shifts to repairing a boat for escape. You need to obtain two critical components first:

• Air filter — located inside the village
• Toolbox — found in the supermarket warehouse

The warehouse is inaccessible without a crowbar.

Obtain the crowbar from the church in the village.

Use the crowbar to break into the supermarket warehouse and collect the Toolbox.

With these items, cross the Southern region and railway track to reach the Block A panels.

Inside, you’ll find a switch puzzle on the ground floor and an Electrical diagram in the apartment to the right, required for repairs.

Set the toggle switches to the code: 001101

Once the puzzle is solved, proceed further into the building.

Ascend to the upper floors of Block A and locate apartment A.96 one floor below.

Inside, pick up the key that grants access to Block B.

Next, find apartment B.95 in Block B, also one floor below the main corridor.

Look on the windowsill here to collect the Key to the Workshops location.

Exit Block A and head to the Factory.

Within the factory, obtain the Pass-punch card 45107. Use this card to unlock a secured door.

Beyond the door, drop down and grab the Blowtorch resting on a barrel, essential for clearing iron beam obstructions.

Use the blowtorch to melt through blocked doorways.

Return to the Southern region, heading toward Stroyploshchadka.

Here you must gather three items:

• Drive belt — found at the construction site
• Pressure gauge — located in a box to the left
• Fuel for the generator — nearby

Place the fuel into the generator and start it.

Install the pressure gauge, activate the pump, and adjust the valve carefully while monitoring pressure readings.

Afterwards, you’ll gain access to proceed into the Workshops.

Police Station Puzzle

Use the Workshops key to open the door and make your way to the Police Station.

Descend to the basement and select the 4th camera to reveal another toggle switch panel.

Set the switches to: 001101

This unlocks access to the leftmost cell where you can pick up the Key to the boat.

Return to the boat and use all gathered items to complete repairs.

Once repaired, return to the launch point to finish Chapter 2.
