Captain Sims & Protocol Ending
How To Unlock The Protocol Ending
To get the Captain Sims ending,Atomfallplayers must gain the trust of Captain Sims to allow entry into various Protocol locations, such as the Skethermoor Prison. After entering Wyndham Village, either go to the Church or Bakery, learn about what happened in these locations, then report your findings to Captain Sims. Sims will be in the bandstand the first time you enter the village, but later on, you may talk to him within the Village Bunker.
After this, Sims will ask you togo to the prison and interrogate Dr. Garrowto find out how she turned off their machines. Go to the prison in Skethermoor, to the very back solitary confinement area, and find out what Dr. Garrow did. Report this to Captain Sims and you will find out an important Protocol Radio Part has been stolen from the village hall. Head to the Speaking Cave just to the east of the Druid Camp in Casterfell Woods to find it, then bring it back to Captain Sims.
After this, he will instruct you to initiate Operation Atomfall – a secret plan to destroy Oberon and obliterate the surrounding countryside. Go into the Windscale Plant and blow up Oberon, then return to Captain Sims to escape.
Dr. Garrow Ending
How To Escape With Dr. Garrow
To get the Dr. Garrow ending,Atomfallplayers must find Dr. Garrow in the back of the Skethermoor Prison. If you are not friendly with Protocol, you will be shot practically on sight, so it’s a good idea to gain Captain Sims' cooperation first. Head to the back of the prison, through the tunnels, to reach the solitary confinement area.
Talk to Dr. Garrow and promise to free her. Turn around and go into the Security room nearby tofind her Signal Redirector. Use this to open the cells, after which Dr. Garrow will escape into the Interchange and lock the door behind her.
Escape the prison, where all guards will now be hostile, then make it back to the Interchange. Dr. Garrow will be located in the Central Processor room once she has been freed. Here, Dr. Garrow tells you torecover her research notes from the Robotics facilitybelow. You must restore power to Data Store Bravo to access Robotics. Solve the Signal Redirector puzzles in Robotics, and avoid the hostile B.A.R.D. Robots, to find her research notes.
Return the notes to Garrow, then she will give you a keycard to access to a secret Data Store near the Casterfell Dam. Enter this area with the keycard she provides, then enter the command GEN ERA in the central terminal once you restore power. Return to Dr. Garrow, restore power to the Central Processor, then go into the Windscale Plant to destroy Oberon.
Dr. Holder Ending
How To Escape With Dr. Holder
To get the Dr. Holder ending,Atomfallplayers must find Dr. Holder’s secret location. After you unlock access to the Medical wing of the Interchange (after powering Data Store Alpha), head inside and look for the Church Cellar Key. Bring this key to St. Katherine’s Church, then go down below to the church crypt. Open the Forgotten Cellar in a corner of the room to find Dr. Holder’s secret lab.
Here, Holder will ask you to recover Sample One, a piece of the organic material that Oberon contains at its core. He will give you his keycard, which allows access to the lower levels of the Medical facility. Head back to Medical and use the keycard to access lower Medical, then look for the Auditorium. Look for Sample One on the operating table in this operating theater –it looks like an Atomic Battery.
Bring this back to Dr. Holder, then go to the Central Processor in the Interchange. Dr. Holder will move here and give you the Toxin he developed to counter Oberon. Bring this into the Windscale Plant, once you power up the Central Processor, and use the Fire Safety System within the Oberon Dig Site to spray this toxic mixture directly into the heart of Oberon. Return to Dr. Holder to escape.
Joyce Tanner Ending
How To Escape With Joyce Tanner
To get the Joyce Tanner ending,Atomfallplayers must find Joyce Tanner. There are two locations she could be in – by default, she is locked away in a secret Protocol bunker just southwest of the Old Mine, where you meet Mother Jago, in northern Casterfell Woods. But if you activate Data Store Charlie, she will move into this Data Store location within The Interchange.
Either way, restore power to Data Store Charlie, then talk to Joyce Tanner in this location.She will tell you to re-activate three Radio Towersin Casterfell Woods, Slatten Dale, and Skethermoor. Each Radio Tower can only be activated with a respective Radio Tower Keycard. The location of each Keycard is hinted at by a note taped to each terminal, and they are all located close to each Radio Tower.
Once all three have been activated, return to Joyce Tanner in Data Store Charlie, and Joyce Tanner will tell you of a secret Data Store near the Casterfell Dam that contains a terminal. Get into the Data Store, and activate the GEN MOVE command Tanner provides to you, then return to her location in Data Store Charlie.
She will tell you to recover a sample of Oberon. Head into the Windscale Plant (once you have powered the Central Processor), and either bring two Atomic Batteries or destroy the B.A.R.D. Robots in the Oberon Dig Site. Slot these into a special Sample Extractor area behind the upper control rooms in the Dig Site, pull the lever in the control room,
Pick up the ground-up Oberon sample from the grinder on the left, then return to Joyce Tanner to escape.
Mother Jago Ending
How To Escape With Mother Jago
To get the Mother Jago ending,Atomfall players must first find Mother Jago at the Old Mine in northeast Casterfell Woods. Here, she will ask you torecover her book from the Druid Campto the far southwest. Go into the Druid Castle, pick up the Castle Key from the kitchen area, then open the secret door behind the fireplace to access a hidden chamber. Look on the right side of the room for a side room that contains both Mother Jago’s Book and the Strange Tonic Recipe.
Return the book to Mother Jago and she will ask if you want to escape all of this madness in the Quarantine Zone. Reply yes, then she will ask you to bring an Offering to the Speaking Cave. This location is found just to the east of the Druid Camp, just south of the Sewer Entrance in the middle of Casterfell Woods.
Druids will not be hostile to you while carrying the Offering. Find the altar, make the offering, then leave the Speaking Cave to find Mother Jago has moved to the Stone Circle just outside. Talk to her here, and she will tell you of a Growth Serum that can enhance and grow Oberon. You must make it to the lower levels of Medical (with Dr Holder’s Keycard) and look behind the Auditorium area to find a secret cave. This leads to the Medical Tunnels.
Explore the tunnels until you find the Growth Stimulant by a body deep in the caves – it looks like an Atomic Battery. You do not need to return to Mother Jago.
Once you have re-powered the Central Processor, go into the Windscale Plant and use the Fire Safety System in the Oberon Dig Site to spray Oberon with the growth serum. Escape the Windscale plant and run back to the Castle Ruins, to the pit below, and sacrifice yourself to The Voice In The Soil to “escape”.
The Voice on the Phone Ending
How To Escape With The Voice On The Phone
To get the Voice on the Phone ending,Atomfall players must simply answer the phone once at any point in their playthrough, then destroy Oberon at the end of the game. You can skip every telephone until you are just about to enter the Infection clouds at the beginning of the Windscale Plant.
Pick up the phone here, talk to the Voice On The Telephone,then consume a Strange Tonicand make your way into the Oberon Dig Site at the far end of the Windscale Plant. Destroy Oberon by arming all four emergency detonation devices, then return to the bunker where you started the game in south Slatten Dale to escape.
