Learn how to use the journal and lighter in Metro 2033. Tap M for the lighter, hold M for the journal. Use RMB for objectives.

The journal is accessed by holding the [M] key. The compass on the journal always points towards your current objective (a marker on your screen indicating where you need to go). To see a list of your current objectives, press the Right Mouse Button [RMB].

The lighter is activated by tapping the [M] key. It provides a low-level light source and can also be used to burn away cobwebs. Be careful when using the lighter, as it can give away your position.

Tips
  • The lighter is essential for clearing cobwebs blocking your path.
  • Using the lighter in dark areas can attract unwanted attention.
  • Always check your objectives via the journal before proceeding.
