Welcome to the Game III is a tense dive into deep web horror, where the smallest slip-up can turn your run into a nightmare. Players frequently stumble early by missing essential safety checks like locking doors or ignoring subtle audio warnings—mistakes that often end investigations before they really begin.
Instead of rushing through the dark web’s depths, establishing a solid routine provides far greater chances for survival. Prioritize securing your base and understanding key motel spots before diving into the websites and puzzles. This foundational approach transforms chaotic nights into manageable challenges.
This walkthrough guides you through every grave detail from your first hours in the motel to mastering the game’s hacking mini-games and timing your moves on dangerous darknet sites. Knowing when to act and when to hold back can be the difference between a quick death and lasting deeper into the game’s mystery.
Welcome to the Game 3 Beginner Walkthrough (First Night Guide)

The initial night isn’t about rushing every objective but rather about establishing your defenses and understanding the motel environment. Spend 20 to 30 minutes setting up to smooth out your experience in the hours to come.
Lock Your Motel Room First
Immediately after gaining control, lock your motel door. Leaving it open invites trouble.
Take time to memorize the room’s layout, noting the position of crucial elements like:
- The panic button for emergencies
- The light switch to avoid walking blind
- Your computer for hacking tasks
- The peephole to safely check the hallway
- The back door—it may be a secondary exit or entry point
This knowledge lets you react swiftly during threats without fumbling for controls.
Search Every Motel Room
Before opening the computer, explore all motel rooms to scavenge supplies crucial for survival.
Your goal is gathering tools that will sustain you as threats ramp up.
Look for:
- A bag of meth for Cletus
- Motion sensors to detect intruders
- Security cameras for monitoring
- Speed-enhancing drugs
- Other helpful items you encounter
Only carry one meth bag at a time—Cletus only accepts what you hold, so leaving extras and marking their location is smarter than hauling multiple bags.
Learn the Motel Layout
Getting lost is a common killer early on. Ensure you know where everything important is positioned.
Critical areas to memorize include:
- The electrical room
- Internet boxes for hacking tasks
- Package pickup spots for supplies
- Safe routes to avoid enemies
- The Ace of Spades room, essential for triggering Tucker’s chase event
You’ll be revisiting these spots repeatedly, so quick navigation saves precious time and risk.
Install Motion Sensors
Once you have at least three motion sensors, placing them strategically should be your next step.
An effective placement covers:
- The motel’s left side
- The motel’s right side
- Lucas’s back door entry point
This setup gives you early alerts for threats like Tanner and Lucas, minimizing sudden ambushes.
Start Browsing Dark Web Websites
After fortifying your defenses, it’s time to venture into dark web sites using the motel computer.
Prioritize activities such as:
- Collecting hashes essential for progression
- Tracking down clues
- Downloading software or files that improve your chances
- Unlocking new areas through website exploration
Be selective—some sites, like The Bomb Maker, should be avoided early because they trigger hazards before you’re ready.
Keep Your Door Locked
Every time you get back to your room, locking the door right away is crucial to avoid surprise attacks.
Before stepping outside:
- Listen carefully for lockpicking noises
- Peek through the peephole to scan the hallway
- Ensure the area is free from threats
These simple steps can prevent brutal early-game deaths.
Watch the Time
Some dark web sites only become available at specific times each hour.
If you miss their active window, you must wait for the next cycle, so keep a constant eye on the clock during browsing.
Don’t Panic During Threats
Enemies give clear warnings before attacks, often through sounds, visual signals, or particular environmental events.
Learning to interpret these signs correctly means you can prepare and survive rather than acting impulsively and making fatal errors.
Early-Game Priorities
Start your first night with this sequence:
- Lock your motel room immediately.
- Acquire one meth bag for Cletus.
- Study and memorize the motel layout.
- Collect at least three motion sensors.
- Install these sensors strategically.
- Begin navigating dark web websites cautiously.
- Avoid triggering The Bomb Maker too soon.
- Keep progressing while tracking website time availability.
Common pitfalls to avoid include carrying excess meth bags, neglecting to lock doors, rushing into dangerous websites, sprinting outdoors unnecessarily, ignoring website schedules, ignoring peephole checks, and losing track of key locations.
Learn the Important Sound Cues
Recognizing sounds can alert you to danger before it arrives. Use headphones if possible to catch subtle audio cues.
| Sound | Enemy |
|---|---|
| Quiet rustling grass | Tanner |
| Lockpicking sounds | Lucas |
| Old-time music | Tucker |
| Quiet ticking | Bomb Maker |
| Short motion sensor beeps (~2 seconds) | Tanner |
| Long continuous motion sensor beeps (5-6 seconds+) | Lucas |
Distinguishing these sounds is critical for timely responses.
