Little Nightmares 3 Necropolis Walkthrough
Complete guide to navigating the eerie desert wasteland of Necropolis as Alone and Low in Little Nightmares 3
Little Nightmares 3 puts players in the shoes of two new heroes: Alone and Low. Throughout their journey in The Nowhere, you'll need to solve puzzles, fight off enemies, and work together to overcome all of the challenges Little Nightmares 3 throws at you. The first area you'll explore is the Necropolis. If you need some help navigating this area, check out our full guide below.
Getting Started in the Necropolis - Little Nightmares 3 Walkthrough
Once you gain control, go through the door on your right and pick up a shoe off the ground. Look toward the large button and toss the shoe at it. You'll automatically lock onto the target when you're close enough, so don't worry too much about aiming.
For our playthrough, we mostly played as Alone, so the guide is largely written from that perspective. If you're playing as Low or with a friend, the critical path is largely the same because the AI will automatically perform most actions.
After climbing a ramp, you'll come out into the desert. Drop down and head into the sand.
Eventually, you'll come across a lifeless body. Continue past it to the other side of the desert to find a ladder taking you to the next area.
Following a lengthy ladder climb and a short walk through a tunnel, you'll come to a dead end. If you're controlling Alone, equip her wrench and use it to break open the wall. Otherwise, your AI-companion should do it for you.
Finding Toybox Doll 1 - Little Nightmares 3 Collectibles
Inside the room, you'll find the first doll. Pick it up before moving onward. Grabbing all five of these will unlock the Toybox Achievement/Trophy.
Meeting the Giant Baby - Little Nightmares 3 Boss Encounter
Once you've picked up the doll, pull the box on the right-hand side of the room out of the way with your partner to reveal a hole in the wall. Go through the hole and jump across the wooden beam.
Either use Low's bow or call your AI companion to do so on the rope that's holding a box to bring it down to your level.
Jump toward the box and grab the top to pull yourself up. Do the same to the second box and climb up the ladder.
Follow the corridor forward, and you'll eventually come across another box that Low can shoot down. Do so before dropping down and using the box to get through an opening in the wall.
Walk across the planks until you get to another hole in a wall. Through here, you'll need to use Alone's wrench to unlock the bridge. Hold it in place to let Low walk across and shoot a rope to keep the bridge out when you let go.

Once you cross the bridge, Low and Alone need to work together to open the door. In the next room, drag the large box onto the pressure plate to open up the next section.
Go up the ladder in this dark section and cross the plank bridge. Use the crank to bring the platform down and then jump on it.
Your partner will raise the platform, taking you to the next level. Flip the lever next to the ladder near the platform to bring your partner up to you.
Raven Key Puzzle - Little Nightmares 3 Necropolis Walkthrough
Pull the board from the door on the left-hand side of the room. Through the door, you'll see a raven with a key in its mouth. Shoot the raven with Low and pick up the key.
Go back to the previous room and use the key on the lock to open the door to the next area. Open the flap with your partner to enter the next area and prepare for a scare.
Umbrella Mechanics Guide - Little Nightmares 3 Gameplay
After the massive arm leaves, head right until you come upon a chest of drawers. Pull the board off with your partner to grab an umbrella.
Near the drawers, you'll see a draft of air coming up from the ground. Equip your umbrella to use the air to get up to the next level.
Zipline across the gap and pull off the bottom board to get through the doorway. In the middle of this room is a trap door. Time your jumps with your partner to land at the same time, and the door will open after a few properly timed jumps.
Toybox Doll 2 Location - Little Nightmares 3 Secrets
When the elevator reaches the bottom, the path forward takes you to the right. Instead, use Alone's wrench to break the wall on your left. Inside this room, you'll find the second secret doll.
Dealing With Bugs - Little Nightmares 3 Combat Guide
Now head right through the door and crouch through the small opening in the next room. Once you're out of that tunnel, walk toward the camera, and you'll find a closed door on your right. Open it with your partner.
In this room, you'll be attacked by bugs. To take them out, you need to first shoot them out of the air with Low and then bash them with Alone's wrench. After taking out four bugs, you'll finish this fight. Be quick when playing with an AI companion. They can take damage if you're not fast enough, resetting the encounter.
Once the bugs are dealt with, jump through the hole in the wall on the right. Keep working your way right, and you'll eventually find yourself in another tunnel.
Toybox Doll 3 Discovery - Little Nightmares 3 Collectibles Guide
After leaving the tunnel, you'll find yourself in a large room. Climb the boards on the wall to get up to the next level.
When you get to the top, walk toward the camera to find a door on your right. Before using your umbrella to ride the wind up, climb the staircase to find the next doll.
The Return of the Big Baby - Little Nightmares 3 Stealth Section
After you've secured the doll, use the Umbrella to get up to the next platform. Keep your umbrella out and jump into the abyss to get to the next platform. Jump off that platform, but before you die, whip out your umbrella to slide onto the next platform.
Crouch under the boards to get through the next doorway, and then push the plank to create a bridge across the gap.
Go through the doorway and then sprint toward the camera to take shelter behind the box before the giant baby monster sees you. When it leaves, keep running back toward the camera until you can turn right.
Toybox Doll 4 Location - Little Nightmares 3 Hidden Items
After the baby drops you, you'll wake up in a new location.
Once you have control, the path forward takes you to the right. Instead, go left and look for a small gap in the wall. You'll find the fourth doll inside this room.
Distracting the Baby - Little Nightmares 3 Puzzle Solutions
With the doll in hand, head right. Climb up the boxes and through the window to find a plank bridge to cross. Go down some stairs and through the doorway on your right to find the giant baby again.
Just like the last time you had to dodge the baby's roving eye, carefully make your way through the pillars until you get to the end. Wait for your partner to cross and open the flap door to the next room.
There's a box under the stairs. Pull it out and use it to jump to the stairs.
Bell Ringing Puzzle - Little Nightmares 3 Necropolis Guide
At the top of the stairs is a break in the wall that you can smash with Alone's wrench. Do so to access the next area.
Climb up the ladder out here. Don't worry about the baby. It won't look your way. Once you're at the top, cross over the plank bridge and climb up a second ladder.
Use Alone's wrench on the mannequin. This lowers a rope that Low can break with their bow to make the bell ring.
This calls the giant baby over, so run into the box to your right to hide. Once the doll leaves, climb through the window on your right.
Toybox Doll 5 Final Location - Little Nightmares 3 Achievement Guide
In the next room, use Alone's wrench to open the airway, letting Low go to the second level. They'll lower a ladder on the left-hand wall to join them.
Rip the plank off the door and drop down the hole in the next room. Go through the window and use your umbrella to ride the current to get to the other side of the abyss.
Head through the next room, ripping another plank off a door to get access back outside. Go away from the camera to find the last doll in the upper left corner of the outside hallway.
Leaving the Necropolis - Little Nightmares 3 Level Completion
Right of the doll, you'll see an opening you can walk under. Let your partner hoist you up to the ladder.
Once you're up here, pull the box on the right over so that your partner can grab the rope. Then, push the box back so your partner can jump to the crank and open the door forward.
Use your umbrella to safely drop back down and go through the open door.
Little Nightmares 3 Necropolis Completion
Follow the path until you come to a room with a statue and a noose. Pull out your umbrella and drop into the opening. Grab your partner's hand and go through the mirror to finish the level. Congratulations on completing the Necropolis area in Little Nightmares 3!
