General Advice to Staying Alive in Penumbra

[flcn27]

Nice tips. Although I have to admit that I never used any flares, beef jerkies or dynamite in Overture. I only used my glowing stick and just sneaked past the dogs, which was easy (on normal difficulty).
Most of the time it's actually quite safe to use the glowing stick or flashlight. In many areas you can be quite sure that there won't be a dog (like the small rooms).
