In the ominous world of Alan Wake 2, players can expect numerous thrilling events and mysteries. Some of them occur directly in the player's path, while others require more careful exploration, occasionally involving auxiliary tools. One of the key tools in Alan Wake 2 is a regular screwdriver, possessing various functional applications in the gameplay. In this guide, we will explore how to obtain this tool.
Where to find the screwdriver in Alan Wake 2
The screwdriver is located in the Water area, where the protagonist Saga Anderson will head according to the main storyline. If you urgently need this tool, it is recommended to continue following the story until Chapter 3: Local Return, where the protagonist visits the amusement park "Coffee World," and the sought-after screwdriver can be found.
The screwdriver is indispensable, as it is necessary for the successful completion of the main storyline. However, the search for the screwdriver often leads players into a deadlock due to the extensive and complex location where it is hidden. For a quicker discovery, head to the souvenir shop in "Coffee World."
The main quest's task is to find the keys to the trailer park, leading you to the entrance of the shop. The door will have a lock that can be picked using the screwdriver. Although the tool is not present at this location, pay attention to the note with hints. After entering the realm of reason and matching the evidence, Saga will realize that the screwdriver was used during the repair of the "Coffee Maker" attraction, which you can find on the map. Head towards it.
Near the attraction, you'll have to battle possessed entities. After emerging victorious, locate the red electrical shield. The screwdriver will be lying on it. Picking up the tool will unlock the achievement "Another Path." By completing these actions, you can easily resume your journey along the main storyline.
Purpose of the screwdriver in the game
In Alan Wake 2, the screwdriver has several functional applications. Besides its role in the storyline, using the screwdriver allows you to unlock various locks that previously obstructed your path, expanding your opportunities for exploring the game world. Additionally, as you progress through the game, you may encounter red boxes that can only be dealt with using this tool.
