Guide to 'Uncovering Buried Secrets' in Tales of the Neon Sea. Learn how to find missable files, unlock achievements, and make crucial decisions.
- 1In the secret lab, inspect the files on the whiteboard to find the first File: 'The End (5/8) - Robot Puppets'.
- 2Interact with the large life support device and then the computer. Read all files on the PC desktop, paying attention to the diagram on the far right.
- 3Go to the chain console control panel on the far left. Adjust the coloured lamps to match the diagram from the computer: press the purple/orange button twice, the yellow/green button once, and the blue button twice.
- 4Head down the newly revealed stairs into the Secret Corridor. Enter the doorway at the far left.
- 5In the next secret room, examine the diary. Then, inspect the Beta Type Consciousness Transmission Device for the second File: 'The End (6/8) - The Research Information of Consciousness Transmission Device'.
- 6Speak with Charles. Grab the Crowbar from the far right of the room.
- 7Return to Charles and use the Crowbar on the holding cell door. This unlocks the 'The Story of Rescuing the White Mustache' Trophy/Achievement.
- 8You will return to the lab and be presented with a choice. The first question has no impact, but the second choice determines which Achievement you unlock and if you get a new File.
- 9To unlock 'The Liberation' Trophy/Achievement and the File 'The End (7/8) - The History Between Edward and Luna': Choose to 'Turn off the equipment'. Interact with the life support device.
- 10To unlock 'The Benevolence' Trophy/Achievement: Choose to 'Leave the equipment on'. No further interaction is needed for this choice, but you will miss a File.
- 11Regardless of your choice, head back down to the secret room to proceed to 'The Final Confrontation'.
- Two of the three Image & Text Files are found by diligent inspection of objects.
- The third File is tied to a specific choice you make.
- You must reload an earlier save file to unlock both mutually exclusive Achievements in a single playthrough.
- The closest save file to the decision point is labeled 'Inside a secret room'.
