Vault8 - Light a Fire - Episode 2

As you progress through the story of Episode 2 in An Elmwood Trail you will be contacted by Riverstone carwash with a riddle to solve. This is similar to the vault8 challenge that you face in Episode 1 but more complex.

To complete this you need to use Adam's Phone and this time enter a new puzzle at: vault8.com/fire. This will lead you through another text adventure game.

If you are looking for help with finding the way to Vault8 in Episode 1 then check the guide here.

Light a Fire

The text adventure style mini game asks you to make choices to progress though. This is more complicated than the tasks in Episode 1 where you simply needed to access the vault. It will take some time to navigate through and locate all of the items needed.

There can be more than one way to work though all of the steps and you may have already accomplished some objectives. But if you are stuck then below we have some guides to help.

Objectives

The main goals of the mini game are as follows:

• Find your way to a camp.
• Visit the riverside and the swamp and get through 4 small tasks to obtain 4 items.
• Go back to the house.

If you find any better ways to complete the tasks, please let us know in the comments below.

Step One - Find the camp

You are in the forest. Two paths lay in front of you. Which one do you choose?

Follow these choices to reach the camp:

• Woods
• Go around it
• Blue Flag
• The other way

You have reached the camp. Where do you go next?

Step 2 - Complete the Swap and the Riverside

There are two locations to head to, both locations have two stages to complete. You can try these in other orders but this is how we worked our way through them.

Swamps - Stage: Silence

You need to avoid making noise. Follow this process:

• Long Route
• Crawl under it
• Stay Still
• Road
• Abandoned Car

• Manually open the trunk

You find an oil lamp and can go back to the Camp

You found a piece of Wood, back to camp.

Swamps - Stage: Conundrum

You now need to answer 7 questions. Some answers are only explained after you have answered the question. You can go through this more than once to understand the process. If you need help then the following will complete the stage.

1. Back
2. Door
3. Moon
4. Sword
5. 7163
6. Air
7. White

You found matchsticks. Go back to the camp.

Reach the house

Now that you have the items you can complete the final task. Back up to the first choice of the game. It will say: You are in the Forest. Two paths lay in front of you. Which one do you choose?

From here you just need to make 2 choices:

• Cave
• Climb Down

You have reached the house. Do you have a fire?

If you have successfully completed all of the camp stages above then you will have the items you need for the fire.

You can chose Yes.

You have entered the house. You can now join the meeting.

This completes the vault8.com/fire challenge. You can continue with the main walkthrough for Episode 2.
