Where to Find All Sahin Tiles in Unknown 9: Awakening
These items are also essential for exploring the Sahin's past and their connection to the storyline.
You can locate 24 Sahin Tiles scattered throughout the chapters, often hidden in ruins, caves, and elaborate environments.
Like when hunting for Leap Year Society Coins, it’s wise to unlock and apply the Umbric Resonance skill. Doing so will make your search smoother.
Here’s an exhaustive list of all Sahin Tiles locations:
Quinta Matos (Sahin Tiles 1 to 4)
The tiles in this area are concealed spaces with wooden walls or caves.
- After defeating a group of Ascendants, your first Sahin Tile is hidden in a circular chamber. Smash the crates against the wooden wall on the left side of the room, and you’ll discover the tile on the ground near some barrels.
- As you cross the makeshift bridge over Matos alongside Luther, stop and check the area behind the rock formation to your right. The tile is subtly positioned on the ground, hidden behind the rocks.
- Look to your left once you’ve scaled the wall and entered the small cave. The tile can be found on the ground, just past some shattered wooden planks.
- As you explore the caves and wooden platforms with Luther, leap across the gap to land on a platform. You’ll find a crate with the Sahin Tile sitting on top in the corner.
The Morning Star – Part III (Sahin Tiles 5 & 6)
This chapter features two Sahin tiles. When you return to the ship, go down to the control room.
To solve the Light Puzzle, flip the switches in this order: 3rd, 1st, 2nd, and 4th. Once the puzzle is solved, go back to the showcase room. The Sahin Tile can be found in the first display case on the left.
You can find another tile in Vincent’s office. To unlock a hidden room, interact with the case behind his desk. Make your way downstairs into this room and find another Sahin Tile on the right, located between two lights.
Anatolia (Sahin Tiles 7 to 11)
Many tiles are located within caves and ruins.
- Traverse the ruins of Anatolia and step through a rectangle-shaped archway. In the spacious room, a stone slab is at the center. The Sahin Tile is located on the edge of the slab, near a group of stalagmites.
- After lifting rocks to proceed with Luther, jump over a small ledge at the end of the hallway and crush a rock wall to your right. Inside the tunnel, the Sahin Tile is found next to a statue at the far end.
- In a room with a stone beam overhead, crush the rock wall nearby and cross to the other side using the beam. Before descending, look toward a flat rock on the left wall. The Sahin Tile is resting here above a group of stalagmites.
- After entering a round room with a balcony, take the stairs on the right side. At the foot of the stairs, the Sahin Tile is hidden on the ground behind a stone statue.
- Proceed through the tunnel once you’ve taken care of the Ascendants and worked with Luther to move the stones. When you reach the fork in the path, take a sharp left and go around a rock pillar. The tile will be resting on a flat rock beside some stalagmites.
Dasuden (Sahin Tiles 12 to 15)
Deep inside this area, you’ll uncover tiles after navigating obstacles like minecarts and rotating bridges.
- After clearing some rocks with Buchra, proceed into a cave and ignore the left path. The tile is tucked away in the corner of the cave, partly concealed by a larger rock.
- Once you’ve smashed a gate open with a minecart, defeat the Ascendants in your way and stop before dropping down. The Sahin Tile can be found on a set of crates close to a broken elevator.
- After you cross the rotating bridge into the cave, make your way down two platforms. Look for a table near a big radio on the second platform, where you’ll find the Sahin Tile.
- Near the end of the cave, cross the bridge that leads outside. Walk to the end of the tracks and go up the stairs. You’ll find the tile sitting on a table in front of a building, next to a backpack.
Peshanden (Sahin Tiles 16 to 20)
This location has tiles hidden near conduits, rock walls, and broken stone formations.
- Step through a sturdy red door, descend a winding staircase and crawl under a broken doorway. You’ll notice the tile on the ground to your left, perched on a broken rock.
- After scaling down a series of rock walls, stop short of a circular archway that leads to a tunnel. Make your way to the ledge on the left and creep along the wall. Enter through the doorway, and you'll locate the Sahin Tile at the cliff’s edge, just below a statue.
- Approaching a conduit with a Tuneable memory, take the stairs downward and follow the path around a gap. The Sahin Tile will be at the bottom, resting on the ground in front of a statue.
- Once you've defeated the Ascendants, leap into the center of the area. Proceed through the doorway next to the conduit, and you’ll discover the Sahin Tile at the bottom of a rubble heap.
- After descending a large staircase into the Sahin structure, break through the wall on the opposite side. The Sahin Tile is located beyond the doorway, near a blocked staircase.
Reithden (Sahin Tiles 21 to 24)
Look for tiles near flowering vines, hidden paths, or broken stones.
- After the cutscene with Buchra, climb the flowering vines. Once at the top, vault over a fallen tree on your right. The tile is on a weathered stone at the end of the path.
- After scaling the vines and crossing over the tree, you smashed with Buchra, turn left and step into a small cave filled with Sahin statues. The Sahin Tile will be inside the cave.
- Topple the tree spanning the river, cross over it, and climb the blooming vines to find an open space with two routes. Head to the right path; at the end, you’ll find the Sahin Tile resting on a broken stone.
- Once you unlock the Sahin Door, step through and head toward a broken bridge. Lower yourself down the vines to the bridge's lower level and continue along the path up the hill. Before reaching the ridge, turn right and find the tile hidden in a crevice (surrounded by Sahin statues).
