Walkthrough
  1. 1
    After the cable car stops, go down the stairs and use your ID Wristband to pass through the triple doors, unlocking the Great Need for a Shower trophy.
  2. 2
    Enter the Security Room to the left, pick up Shotgun Shells x4, and the Research Lab North Area Map.
  3. 3
    Examine the computer at the main desk in the reception area to find the Nap Room Log file (31/58).
  4. 4
    Go into the break room, save your game if desired, and examine the board for the ID Wristbands file (32/58).
  5. 5
    Go through the door previously ignored, into the Canteen. Defeat the visible zombie, pick up the Hand Grenade, Handgun Ammo x15 from the tables, and the Mr. Raccoon figure (10/15) in the northwest corner to unlock the Endangered Species record.
  6. 6
    Defeat the zombie on the floor, pick up Fuel x200 from the counter, and proceed to the back. Avoid the zombie that gets up by climbing the ladder.
  7. 7
    Follow the passage in the roofspace and drop into the kitchen. Pick up Large Gunpowder and the Combat Knife.
  8. 8
    Carefully open the door to the kitchen; a zombie in full body armour is outside. Remain in the doorway and let it approach, then backpedal and aim for a headshot (a shot that lands on the enemy's head, usually an instant kill).
  9. 9
    Go west to the Nap Room. Pick up Shotgun Shells x3 from the table.
  10. 10
    Search the left locker to find the Regulator (Flamethrower) accessory and combine it with your flamethrower, unlocking the Packed Pockets record.
  11. 11
    Grab the Electronic Chip from the bunk's arm and combine it with your ID Wristband for level 2 clearance.
  12. 12
    Return to the reception area and use the item box to manage your inventory.
  13. 13
    Go through the southern door, now accessible with level 2 clearance. Examine the dead soldier for the Special Forces Recording file (33/58) and update your goals via the info screens.
  14. 14
    Use the console to extend a bridge to the Main Shaft. Cross it and find the level 2 console to extend a bridge to the East Lab Area.
  15. 15
    Cross the new bridge to the East Lab lobby. Pick up the Green Herb from the counter, Gunpowder from the desk, and save your game.
  16. 16
    Arm yourself with the flamethrower and go through the eastern door to the Presentation Room.
  17. 17
    Leave via the northwest entrance and look up to see an Ivy. Use controlled bursts of flame (approx. 60-70 units of fuel) until it falls, then continue burning it until it bursts into flames.
  18. 18
    Pick up High Grade Gunpowder from a console table and defeat another Ivy.
  19. 19
    Continue into the Control Room. Pick up the Flash Grenade and examine the console to your right.
  20. 20
    Examine the machine near the window to receive an empty Dispersal Cartridge.
  21. 21
    Enter the Greenhouse and turn left. Pick up the Red Herb and follow the path to a locked hatch. Note the symbols on the hatch.
  22. 22
    Return to the Greenhouse Control Room and use the console, entering the code 3123.
  23. 23
    Return to the Greenhouse and go down the opened hatch. In the western corner, find Large Gunpowder and the Research Lab Area East Map.
  24. 24
    Go through the door in the opposite corner, ignoring the left corridor, and enter a Lounge area.
  25. 25
    Pick up Shotgun Shells x4 from the sofa arm. Defeat the three playing-dead zombies on the left; kneecap the nearest and furthest, then use a Hand Grenade when they are close to the third to potentially unlock the Zombie Roundup trophy.
  26. 26
    Pick up the Green Herb and the Trophy from the table. Examine the Trophy in your inventory for symbols needed to unlock another area.
