Introduction

Riddick is a baaaaad man, in both senses of the word. He's bad as in bad-ass, and bad as in bad enough to get thrown into the roughest prison in any galaxy, Butcher Bay. Luckily, the first kinda bad will come in quite handy when trying to escape this hell-hole.

The events of The Chronicles of Riddick: Escape From Butcher Bay precede those of the movie Pitch Black, where the Riddick character made his first appearance. The launch of the game also coincides with the blockbuster release of the film The Chronicles of Riddick, which documents events after Pitch Black. Not that knowing the chronology will help you in any way when this game is kicking your ass.

But we will. IGN Guides has carefully crafted a guide to this dystopic adventure. We've done the hard time so you don't have to. We'll share each and every Cigarette Pack location, walk you through each vent crawl and fire fight, explain how to beat every boss, how to use every weapon, and where to stick your vent tool. From your first shiv, to your last mini-gun, we've got you covered.

Way before Vin Diesel was around, I had a turtle, and its name was Diesel. Why? This turtle could motor! Set him down on the floor, and he'd check cross traffic, and then take off at mach speed. If little Diesel had been in a race against the hare, there would never have been an expression like "slow and steady wins the race," cause all that bunny would have been seeing was turtle ass.
