Primordia

The Dunes

UNNIIC

Start by climbing down through the hatch, then head right until your ship's power core is stolen.

Pick up your datapouch and head right, then pick up the conduit from the ground, and the cable hanging on the far right. Look at the Emergency Generator, and take the spark plug to get some putty. Also examine the socket on the side of the generator. Climb up the ladder and use Crispin on the halogen lantern. Also pick up the conduit from the floor before heading left. Use your lantern on the hatch and you will go inside.

Take the Gospel of Man from the side table, and read this in your inventory. Search the bed to get your plasma torch. Use the console to return up to the deck, then use your map to travel to the junk pile.

Junk

Pick up the conduits just to the right of the red light on the ground. Look at the tube, then use Crispin on it to get some more conduit. Use your plasma torch on the lockbox to get a spark plug, then use your map to travel back to your ship.

UNNIIC

In your inventory, use your plasma torch on the 5 conduits Knotcutter. Use the fused conduit on the socket on the side of the generator. Use your spark plug on the gap on the generator, then use the switch to turn it on. You will automatically go the recharging room Charged up.

Go right into the engineering room. Examine the radio and listen to the broadcast to hear the coordinates 894. Now remove the radio's plug. Also pick up the LCD just to the right of the radio, and examine the plans further to the right. Head right from here and try to take the rag - it will fall down before you can grab it. Return to engineering and go through the door in the back wall, then climb down the ladder and go left. Pick up the rag. Return right and use the rag in the grease to make a sticky rag.

Go back up the ladder and inside, then continue left twice to reach your bedroom. Pick up the small flashing crystal which is just to the right of the console. In your inventory, use your plasma torch on the cable, then add the putty, crystal and plug. Head right twice to return to engineering and examine the interface. Use your crystal/cable/plug on the socket, and you will see a list of 6 numbers. Remove your device from the socket. Go through the hatch in the back wall, then head left to the telescope. Examine the telescope and press the red button, then type each of these numbers into the telescope:

• 652: Waste
• 817: Robot
• 608: Junk
• 671: Waste
• 212: UNNIC
• 159: Device
• 894: Metropol

You will now have more locations on your map Peeping tom. Use your map to travel to the device.

Device

Talk to the robot here (Ever-Faithful) about each item in turn to get a new location on your map. When saying that you are a humanist, answer the quiz with these options:

• Because Man created us.
• A perfect machine.
• To maintain the world.

You will receive an achievement for answering correctly Robotmitzvah. Answer the final question however you like for now, then use your map again.

Dome

Examine the endoskeleton slumped against the side of the dome, and search its pocket to get a radio transmitter. Examine the AA gun on the right of the area to get a CPU. In your inventory, combine this with your crystal/cable/plug. Add the LCD to create a mobile sensor. Now use your map again.

Junk

Use your mobile sensor on the area just above and left of the train to locate a power source. Use Crispin on this to retrieve a battery Needle in a haystack. Combine this with your signal transmitter, then travel to the giant robot.

Robot

Use your plasma torch on the giant's hand. Next examine the vents beneath the robot's eyes - use the sticky rag and the fingertip on Crispin to block both vents. Next walk into the giant's mouth. Talk to Alpha and Beta about everything. Use the cable in your inventory on Crispin, then use the cable again to climb up to the roof.

Open the panel in the middle of the processing unit, then click on the floating small droid to get it to say "001011010". Examine the panel again to see a series of lights and buttons. You need to recreate the droid's code with lights (from bottom to top, make the 3rd, 5th, 6th and 8th buttons light up). Now press the red button and the brain will stop sparking.

Climb back down the hatch and talk to Alpha and Beta again. Use the pad on the floor and enter any code, but nothing will happen. Talk to Alpha and Beta about the elevator. Use the pad and enter code "9876" then press enter and you will descend to the floor below. Use Monitor 3 to speak to Gamma, then save your game.

Use your mobile sensor on all 4 monitors to work out which one has energy. Use your plasma torch on this monitor Call me David. Load your game. Use your mobile sensor on all 4 monitors again, then use your plasma torch on one of the other monitors. Repeat this twice more to trap Gamma. Go back up using the platform and talk to Alpha and Beta again, then head outside through the hatch. The giant robot will give you a decryption module Defragmented. Use your map to travel again.

Shrine

Talk to Ever-Faithful and say that your name is Horus. Now take bomblet B-325 from the pod (note that bomblet B-734 has been taken). Use your map to return to the UNNIIC.

UNNIIC

Walk left from the grease and use your mobile sensor on a patch of ground just down and right from the middle of the screen. Click on the energy reading here to get a tape deck Keeping it reel.

Return right and climb up the ladder, then go through the hatch. Place your bomblet in the cradle. Go back through the hatch in the back wall and down the ladder. Use the bomblet in the grease to create a sticky bomb. Use your map again.

Dome

Use your sticky bomb on the door of the dome, then use the signal transmitter on it, entering the code 6325 (prefix 6 from Alpha, and suffix 325 from the bomb). Go through the door. Talk to the machine on the wall, use the scanning port, and collect a ticket from the machine. Use your ticket on the control panel to the left of the barrier, then head through and step on to the engine.

Tower

Enter the tower and press the button to enter the elevator, then save your game. Turn the dial to get back up to MetroMind. During the conversation, you will be asked to join her. You can talk about other things, but you will eventually have to choose between three options:

• I need to think about it.
• Very well, I will join you. Resistance is futile
• I will never join you. Live free or die

Assuming you chose to think about it, you can now save your game again (the other options end the game). Pick up Clarity's head from the right. There are now 5 other endings you can reach by taking the following steps:

• Use your plasma torch on the power core and say "Very well." Too much power
• Use your plasma torch on the power core and say "No. You must be destroyed." Not bluffing
• Use the virus on the signal transmitter, then use this on Scraper I told you to stop
• Walk to the right, climb the tracks, then jump off the ledge I always wanted to fly. . .
• Walk to the right, climb the tracks, use the virus on the signal transmitter, then use this on the radio Thanatos

With the good endings, there are 2 final achievements you may receive, based on which robots ended up joining you:

• Three musketeers: Don't let 187th explode, give Primer his medal, solve Ever-Faithful's quiz
• We're all in this together: All of the above, solve Oswald and Cornelius' quiz, select the name "Factor", repair the motor for Gimbal, give Leopold the Gospel of Man, take the matrix from Crispin's body, pick up Clarity's head
