Huntress Roblox chapter 1 tasks players with escaping a sealed, two-story building stalked by a massive predatory spider. Created by developer YamiSama18 on Roblox, this first-person horror escape game can be tackled solo or in cooperative groups of up to four players. To unlock the exit gate and survive Chapter 1, you must gather four sticks of dynamite, locate the detonator room key, find a randomly generated four-digit code, and activate the detonation terminal.

Core Escape Objectives and Requirements

Escaping Chapter 1 requires completing a precise sequence of tasks while managing inventory limits. Players can only carry one item at a time, meaning each piece of dynamite and key must be hauled individually back to its destination.

RequirementPurposeLocation Details
4 Dynamite BundlesPlaced in the explosive charge terminal near the exit gateScattered across drawers, rooms, and open surfaces on floors 1 and 2

Detonator SwitchTriggers the blast once all 4 dynamites and the code are loadedMounted inside the locked detonator room

Giant Spider Behaviors and Detection Signs

The monster in Huntress crawls along the floor and moves across ceilings. Because the creature moves faster than standard player sprinting, escaping relies on understanding how it detects targets and where you can break line of sight.

  • Ceiling Ambush: The spider frequently travels across overhead ceilings. Always look up when entering rooms and open hallways.
  • Sound Sensitivity: The spider hears whenever you drop an object or open a drawer while it is nearby.
  • Flickering Lights: Overhead lights flicker whenever the monster is patrolling your current floor and approaching your area.
  • Auditory Cues: Heavy thumping or pitter-patter footsteps signal that the spider is in your immediate corridor.
  • Hiding Ducts: You cannot outrun the spider in a straight line. Crouch into the low metal ventilation shafts to wait until it passes, but avoid lingering at open vent edges where it can still reach you.
  • Distraction Items: Picking up and throwing items like vases produces loud noises, pulling the creature toward that spot and away from teammates.

Step-by-Step Chapter 1 Walkthrough

Escaping successfully requires methodically clearing the two floors while tracking the monster's patrol routes.

  1. Survey the Ground Floor and Grab Spawn Items: Check surrounding rooms and storage containers near spawn. Search every drawer and surface for dynamite bundles, and listen carefully to light flickering before entering longer hallways.
  2. Haul Dynamite to the Exit Gate: Because your inventory holds only one item, transport each found dynamite stick to the gate apparatus immediately. Drop it at the designated charge station to secure progress.
  3. Locate the Detonator Room Key: Search the rooms and corridors for the designated key. Once found, carry it directly to the locked detonator room (located near the staircase area) to permanently unlock the door.
  4. Locate the 4-Digit Code: Inspect the walls on both floors. The four-digit code is randomized in every playthrough (recorded examples include 8362, 7106, 6340, 4917, and 6482). Write it down or communicate it to teammates immediately.
  5. Scour the Second Floor: Head up the staircase to locate remaining dynamite bundles. If the spider cuts off the stairs, enter nearby vents or toss a vase down below to draw the creature down before ascending.
  6. Arm and Detonate: Return to the detonator room once all four dynamite bundles are placed. Enter your four-digit code into the terminal keypad and hit the large red detonator button. The explosive clears the blocked passage, unlocking the exit and triggering the end screen confirming Chapter 2 is coming soon.

Game Modes and Store Passes

Huntress offers two difficulty options from the starting lobby along with optional game passes:

  • Normal Mode: Standard lighting conditions where ambient fixtures illuminate the rooms, flicking off and on to warn you of the creature's proximity.
  • Nightmare Mode: Enforces blackout conditions where rooms are almost entirely dark, making navigation reliant on player flashlights and careful sound cues.
  • Radar Pass (59 Robux): A permanent pass that highlights the spider's location on screen for 20 seconds at a time.
  • Infinite Revives Pass (149 Robux): A permanent pass granting limitless respawns, bypassing the default two-life limit per run.
  • VIP Pass (299 Robux): An optional permanent utility pass available on the official store page.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many lives do players get in Huntress Chapter 1?

Players start with two lives per run. Dying a second time permanently eliminates you from the match unless a teammate revives you or you own the Infinite Revives pass.

Can the spider enter ventilation shafts?

The giant spider cannot crawl deep into narrow metal ducts. However, players crouching too close to the duct entrance can still be caught and killed if the monster strikes the opening.

What should you do when lights start flickering?

Flickering lights mean the spider is on your current floor and moving toward your position. Stop running, avoid opening drawers, and crouch into the nearest metal air duct until the flickering stops and footstep sounds fade away.

Does the door code change each game?

Yes. The 4-digit code written on the walls randomizes with each new server and match, requiring players to visually locate and read the numbers rather than reusing a code from a previous run.
