Iron Blight is a short survival horror game where you explore abandoned areas, collect important items, fight mutants, and solve simple environmental puzzles. The main story can be completed in around four to five hours, depending on your difficulty and exploration.
If you’re trying to finish the story and collect all achievements, this walkthrough guide covers the required items, locations, weapon and attachment locations, and achievement requirements.
Important: A true 100% completion is currently impossible. The Recorded achievement cannot be unlocked at the moment. The developer has confirmed that there is currently no way to obtain it, although this may change in a future update.
Iron Blight Walkthrough
The game is divided into two main chapters followed by the final section. This game follows the same mechanics as other games where you have to find a specific item and use it to access the next area.
Chapter 1
Start the game and complete the prologue.
Achievement Unlocked: I’ll Be Back
Now you need to find three items to open blocked doors.
- Master Key: Go to the shower room and search inside.
- Screwdriver: Next, search in the room opposite the library.
- Hammer: Can be found in the far part of the level.
Once you have all three items, go outside.
Head to the barn and pick up the Bolt cutter. After getting it, go around the hostel building.
You will eventually reach GG’s car. To get out of the closed area, you need two more items:
- Key to the gate
- AKB
You can find both items around the gate.
Once you collect them, several waves of mutants will attack. Kill them and continue to the next chapter.
Achievement Unlocked: Nobody Sleeps Here Anymore
Chapter 2
Your main objective in Chapter 2 is to repair the boat. You need to find two important items first:
- Air filter — Can be found inside the village
- Toolbox — Search the supermarket warehouse
However, the warehouse can not be accessed without a crowbar.
Go to the church in the Village and pick up the crowbar.
Use it to break into the supermarket warehouse and collect the Toolbox.
After collecting the required items, travel through the Southern region and the railway track to reach the panels of Block A.
There is a switch puzzle on the ground floor. You also need to install the Electrical diagram, which can be found inside the apartment on the right.
Set the toggle switches to: 001101
Once done, continue through the building.
Go to the upper floors of Block A and find apartment A.96.
The apartment is located one floor below. Inside, you can collect the Key needed to access Block B.
Move to the next panel and find apartment B.95. It is also located one floor below.
Look on the windowsill to find the Key to the Workshops location.
Leave the panel of Block A and go to the Factory.
Inside the factory, get the Pass-punch card 45107. Insert the punched card into the door to continue.
After opening the door, jump down. You will find a Blowtorch on a barrel.
Use the blowtorch to open doors that are blocked by iron beams.
Return to the Southern region and head to Stroyploshchadka.
You need three items here:
- Drive belt — Construction site
- Pressure gauge — box on the left
- Fuel for the generator — Check nearby location
Put the Fuel into the generator and turn it on.
Then install the Pressure gauge into the generator. Activate the pump and keep turning the valve while watching the pressure.
Once this is done, you can continue to the Workshops.
Police Station Puzzle
Go to the Workshops and use the key you found earlier to open the door.
From there, proceed to the Police Station.
Head down to the basement and select the 4th camera. You will find another set of toggle switches here.
Set them to: 001101
After solving the puzzle, enter the leftmost cell and pick up the Key to the boat.
Return to the boat and use the required items to repair it.
After repairing the boat, return to the launch location and finish Chapter 2.
