Chapter 1: First Day on the Job

Upon waking up, you'll receive a call from Alex, explaining your situation and giving you your first objective:

  1. Objective: Put on your TranStar Uniform

Exploration before the objective:

  • Access your menu via the TOUCHPAD to view objectives and story details.
  • In your apartment's kitchen, find the notes [_CONGRATS!_] and [_THE METHOD.SCI_].
  • Collect food and drink items from the counter, cupboards, and fridge. These include:
    • [_KINGS & WAY SPARKING WINE_]
    • [_SUN-DRIED TOMATO JERKY x2_]
    • [_GLUCASSIST!_]
    • [_SKYKING POMEGRANATE_]
    • [_COLD MOUNTAIN GREEN TEA x2_]
    These items restore health, similar to consumables in games like System Shock or Deus Ex.
  • Find two books in the kitchen area: [_ENCYCLOPEDIA OF FOOD SCIENCE AND COOKING_] and [_HEART OF THE WOK_].
  • Note that you can lift the fridge.
