Welcome to the BONELAB Hub! This guide will walk you through unlocking modules, piloting the BOSSCLAW, and finding hidden areas. Get ready to dive in!
Alright, so you've just landed in the BONELAB Hub, which is basically the main hangout spot for the whole game. Think of it as your central station for jumping into all the different game modes and progressing the story. It’s where you’ll set up your character’s look too, at the Bodymall. Your main goal here is to explore the six modules scattered around, which will unlock new areas and story beats.
Walkthrough
- 1You'll start in the Conceptual Isolation Chamber. You can either force the doors open or find a way out through the roof hatch. Once you're out, the track Would You Even Know will kick in, and you'll see a bulletin board. This board is your quest log for now, pointing you towards the first three modules you need to explore.
- 2After you've checked out those first three modules, keep an eye out for boxes that'll pop up above them, glowing with energy cores. These create pillars of light, showing you where to go next.
- 3Now, head to the control room. This is where things get interesting. You'll get to pilot a BOSSCLAW, which is this big mechanical arm. You can move it forward and backward, side-to-side along its tracks using a lever, and even turn on its magnetic gravity field with a button.
- 4Your mission with the BOSSCLAW is to grab those energy cores you saw earlier. Use the minimap to guide the BOSSCLAW to the cores. When you activate the magnetic field, any nearby cores will snap right onto it.
- 5Once you've got the cores attached, you need to ferry them over to one of the six tubes lining the control room. They'll automatically lock into place when you get close enough. You need to fill up any three of these tubes to unlock the giant quarantine airlock to your right.
- 6After you've dealt with the left side and progressed further in the game, you'll be back in the Hub. This time, you'll need to explore the remaining modules and collect their cores, just like before.
- 7Once all six cores are in their respective pipes, the BONEWORKS door, located to the right of the control area, will finally open up for you.
- 8For a little secret, check out the metal vents beneath the lab. Follow the corridors, and you'll find a couple of walls with hand-drawn doors. If you've got a keycard (you'll find these in Stress Level Zero's offices), you can use it to pass through one of these walls. This leads to a hidden room connected to the Lab, but it's actually located beneath MythOS City's District 05. The other hand-drawn door's purpose is still a mystery!
Tips
- Don't worry if you can't get all the energy cores on your first try with the BOSSCLAW; you can always reset and try again.
- Pay attention to the minimap when piloting the BOSSCLAW – it's crucial for lining up those energy cores.
- Make sure you've explored all the required modules before heading to the control room to pilot the BOSSCLAW.
- The hidden room is pretty cool, so definitely try to find it if you're a completionist!
