This guide will have no pictures, either pay close attention or watch the youtube video (look at the bottom of the infobox to the right).

Goal: disengage the blackrock nuclear power plant reactor before a meltdown occurs. This section has limited time. Complete everything as fast as you can.

UPPER REACTOR

When you take the elevator, the NPP manager will tell you what to do. You will have to: -Fix both pumps in the reactor hall -Activate the reactor pool emergency fill -Do it before the reactor melts down

The alarm will change depending on how much time you have left, and the reactor pool will start emptying.

First, head toward the first pump. The second one is locked and will require a key. The first pump is located across the reactor pool.

You will need to find 2 fuses for the pump, and you would place it at the bottom of the stairs.

Head toward the control room. There will be 1 fuse on the top of the stairs, and 1 fuse on a shelf.

The key to pump 2 is on one of the walls in a key rack.

There is a document saying that there is a button in a drawer.

Exit the control room and there is 2 more fuses in a lab area.

Head to pump 2 (opposite side of pump 1), and bring a fuse and the button.

Put the button near the pump and the fuse at the bottom of the stairs.

Press the button after you have inserted the fuse and start raising the speed until the button turns green. BE CAREFUL, DO NOT SET THE SPEED TOO HIGH!

Head to pump 1, bring 2 fuses.

Repeat the same thing, however you will have to insert 2 fuses and there is no need for a button.

Head toward the control room then up the stairs to the right.

Press the REACTOR POOL EMERGENCY FILL button.

IMPORTANT! YOU DID NOT STOP THE TIMER, IT JUST RESET. IT WILL CONTINUE COUNTING FROM ZERO RIGHT AFTER YOU PRESSED IT.

Follow the manager's instruction and head back to the elevator, then head down.

LOWER REACTOR

Once you are at the bottom, head toward the bottom of the reactor. Note that your time is still ticking.

For this section, your goal is: -Push all the rods into the reactor -Do it before the reactor melts down, and this time it will kill you instantly

The pattern for the rods is different every time.

Some tips for the puzzle: -The outer rods can only be reached by rotating the machine to align with them -The arm you are controlling does not appear on the light panel. -Remember where your arm is on the panel, so you don't have to look up as much -This also means you should mentally map out where you want to go next -Maybe try muting the game in order to not get stressed by the alarms.

YAY! YOU DID IT! (hopefully)
