This Amnesia Rebirth Fortress Guide will show you how to complete the Fortress section of the game, which is also the trickiest of all the locations, introducing you to the ghouls that chase you, and completing puzzles to proceed forward in the story.
The Fortress has a few smaller rooms that you can enter and explore as the story continues. While the main courtyard of the fortress is pretty simple and safe for you to explore, it is only when you enter the dark rooms through the doors where you will first be introduced to ghouls chasing you.
Amnesia Rebirth Fortress Guide
Let’s look at how you can complete the Fortress section to progress further in the story of Amnesia: Rebirth.
Elevator Room
The Fortress starts with one of the first puzzles in the game, and it can be found in the room to the left after you enter the Fortress. It is also the room with the radio, which you can hear outside in the courtyard. This area will have a few rooms stairs that take you up to more areas, and an elevator that requires two pieces to function and take you to the top.
The first item you require to use the elevator is the winch. This can be found on the ground floor in one of the rooms. The winch will be a part of a large bow weapon, but you can pick it up easily once you find it. The image of the winch is also shown in the note that is found in the elevator.
Bring the winch back to the elevator, place it on the wooden box, close it, and rotate it to lift the elevator. You will instantly notice that there is no floor on the elevator, which means that you cannot go up. You need a wooden platform that can be found next to the elevator, place it inside, and then use the winch to take you up.
Quartermaster Room
When you reach the top, you will find the main door to be locked. You have to go through the crack and go to the area with the bodies. Here you will find a wheel that you need to take to the cannon and attach it to move it around. Now look for the second wheel for the cannon, attach it, and then move the cannon in the hallway to break the floor.
Drop down the hole that you created and you will then be able to interact with the radio. You can head to the Quartermaster’s Office from here as well by using the staircase and then reaching the top.
Escape the Fortress
In the main courtyard of the Fortress, you will find a tank with its gun positioned right at the door. As you may have guessed, you are supposed to fire the tank to break open the gates of the Fortress.
The first thing you need to do is head towards the tank, and enter it through the small gunner door to grab the key. Now head towards the entrance of the Fortress where you will find the ammunition room to the right of the entrance, below a short section of stairs.
In this room, you need to grind charcoal and take sulfur to make gunpowder for the tank. You will find a room here with charcoal and charcoal grinder. Use it to grind the charcoal. The next ingredient is sulfur which can be found in the locked room, where the key for it is next to the corpse. Open the door, and head to the small room where you can pick up sulfur from the cabinet. Head back to the charcoal grinder and use it to grind it into a powder.
The last item you need is Saltpeter which can be found in the Quartermaster’s Office. Once you have everything, return to the ammo room, and place everything in the mixer. Now that you have made a tank shell, go back outside to the tank, reload the cannon and fire it. This will open up the exit from the Fortress in Amnesia: Rebirth.
