- Examine the television
In Initiation 1, the protagonist is forcibly switched to Alan Wake. First, examine the television in the room and watch the talk show event.
- Exit the studio and find the code for the hallway door
| Room with Code | Code |
|---|---|
 |  |
| Code | 665 |
After the talk show event, exit the studio and proceed to the hallway. As you progress through the hallway, a door requiring a code input will appear. Explore each room and enter the dressing room labeled "OLD GODS OF ASGARD," then obtain the code written on the neon sign.
- Head toward the red light and examine the door to the stage
After entering the code and opening the door, head toward the red light. When you examine the stage door, a movie will play and you'll move to the writing room.
- Examine the writing board in the room and return to writing
In the writing room, examine the writing board. On the board, you can check fragments of writing notes. After viewing the board, go to the desk and return to writing. From now on, when controlling Alan, you can go to the writing room anytime by pressing the Touchpad button.
- Examine the television and find the door code
| Code | 565 |
After the movie, Alan starts acting from the dressing room in the studio again. Examine the television to end the talk show, and search for the door code to exit the studio. The code is in the same dressing room, but the neon lights are blinking and the digits have changed according to their sequence.
- Enter the stage and talk to the male caretaker
Head toward the red light again, open the stage door where the movie played before, and enter. After opening the door with the voice, a male caretaker will appear. Listen to information about the basement and other details, then obtain the caretaker's key.
- Head to the basement and obtain the angel lamp
After talking to the caretaker, use the caretaker's key to head to the basement. In the basement, you can obtain the "angel lamp" from inside the shoebox.
- Obtain the map of the talk show studio
Near the room where the caretaker was, you can obtain a map of the talk show studio. The obtained map can be checked anytime by pressing the left side of the Touchpad button, just like when controlling Saga.
- Hold the lamp up to the blinking light bulb
After obtaining the angel lamp, head to the blinking light bulb you encountered on the way and hold the lamp up toward it. When you hold the lamp up, the fence will transform into a room and you'll be able to advance beyond the fence. After entering the room, release the lamp to return to the original space.
- Hold the lamp toward the television
Proceed to the back of the basement and open the door twice. You'll arrive at a room with a blinking television. Hold the lamp up toward the television. When you hold up the lamp, a movie will play and you'll be able to go outside.
- Go outside and answer the public telephone
After the movie, when Alan exits the basement, a public telephone is ringing. Answer the telephone. After answering the public telephone and finishing the conversation, Chapter 3 will be cleared.
- The shoebox is unlocked
In the dark world, when Alan stores items in a shoebox, items can be used from all shoeboxes. Store frequently used items in the shoebox so you can retrieve them anytime.
