Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Head northwest from the forest until you reach a gate guarded by a large spider egg. Use the key to enter.
  2. 2
    After defeating the Broodmother and smaller spiders, head north to find a bunker entrance.
  3. 3
    Enter the tunnels and follow the path. You'll find a map, a TV save point, a campfire, and a note.
  4. 4
    Crouch and move west, fighting spiders. At a split, head northwest, defeat tentacle men and a hazmat enemy, then loot containers west of a locked door.
  5. 5
    Head southwest, burning down an obstacle with explosives. Follow the path, and at another split, head east.
  6. 6
    Crouch under supports, break another obstacle, and follow the path to a box. A shortcut door is northeast of the box.
  7. 7
    Head southeast of the box, then east through an electrified area, defeating a large enemy. Find a first-aid kit and the Minecart Brake Lever.
  8. 8
    Turn off the switch to make the electrified zone safe. Head southwest, defeating a hazmat enemy and a tentacle man to loot two boxes.
  9. 9
    Return to the previous path split and head west. Defeat a large enemy and reach a broken mine cart. Use the Minecart Brake Lever and Fuel to activate it.
  10. 10
    Use the activated mine cart to reach a door with a green light. Go through to find a Workbench, a TV save point, and containers.
  11. 11
    Use the mine cart to return to a previous area. Go through the now-open green-lit door.
  12. 12
    Follow the path, fighting spiders, and head northeast at a split. Loot a box and defeat a large enemy.
  13. 13
    Continue northeast, loot a box, and deal with enemies at a path split. Loot the box.
  14. 14
    Continue along the southern path, defeat spiders, and find a trapdoor. Loot a box north of it and open a shortcut northwest.
  15. 15
    Go down the trapdoor, follow the path southeast, defeat a large spider, and find a first-aid kit.
  16. 16
    At the next split, head east to find a TV save point, a Crank, and a lootable box.
  17. 17
    Return to the split and head west, crouching under supports. Find two boxes near a ladder (a shortcut to the tunnel entrance).
  18. 18
    Go back up the ladder, head northeast, and find another ladder.
  19. 19
    Climb the ladder. Defeat a tentacle man, loot a box southwest of the trapdoor.
  20. 20
    Head south of the trapdoor, defeat a large spider, and find a box.
  21. 21
    Head east of the trapdoor, defeat a tentacle man, and follow the path. At the split, take the north path, defeat enemies, and loot boxes. Use the Crank on the machine to open doors below.
  22. 22
    Return to the trapdoor and go down. Head northeast and northwest, then through the opened door. Climb the ladder at the end to leave the tunnels.
  23. 23
    Head northwest to reach the Druid's Hut (the abandoned cabin). Loot a box to the left of the steps and use the Workbench.
  24. 24
    Enter the Hut, loot boxes, and read the note on the north table.
  25. 25
    In the next room, find a TV save point and a bed. A trapdoor with a button is inaccessible for now.
