ARG Portal
This page contains information about the INFRA ARG, or alternate reality game, which consists of several extremely difficult codes embedded in INFRA and its game assets.
For miscellaneous unsorted assets, please see the Unsorted ARG Assets page. For audio files, please see the ARG Audio Files page.
Works In Progress
This is a list of unsolved puzzles that are being worked on currently.
- Wasteland notes - All of the notes have been solved and "Truth" has been found but the next step is unknown. This is the most important clue we have to solve at the moment.
- Only hint we have for the next step is "5_PAT_?" which could mean a path or a pattern.
- Body message - There are still few missing/guessed words that needs to be found/confirmed.
- The tunnel of water trees book has a code on the back cover that is yet to be solved.
Existing codes
This is a list of the discovered codes in INFRA in chronological order of discovery.
- Body message
- Letter box
- Bunker computer code
- Central projector morse
- Elo hideout symbols
- Reactor lights code
- Wasteland radio morse
- Wasteland notes
- Villa paintings
- Villa woodboxes
- Sewer monitor code
"Correct order"
These are the codes in the "correct order" - the order mentioned in Zuntti's clues, likely the order we need to solve the ARG in.
- 1: Body message
- 2: Bunker computer code ("Computer question")
- 3: Reactor lights code ("Control answer")
- 4: Wasteland notes ("Wasteland ???")
- 5: Elo hideout symbols ("PAT_???")
Clues from Oskutin
"Look up at ceilings"
Oskutin has given multiple clues, perhaps forwarded from Zuntti, about looking up at ceilings to find data in multiple maps (from their map geometry).
"nobody ever looks up at ceilings"
Texture on one of the non-interactive cabinets/panels
Oskutin said these, after discussing what could be written on the wooden boxes in the Villa? (No idea if related but context might be helpful?)
Y93 755
Unknown (so far)
Probably should check every texture and model for this?
37DB 5069 64F8 6C 3076A3 1 A-XB2
How to decode: divide hex values by B2 (Thanks Oskutin?)
Decoded string is either PUNAINENTU or UTNENIANUP depending on the byte order.
NOTE: Oskutin said in Loiste Discord server that we should not waste time trying to solve this.
Encrypted messages
On April 6th, 2019, Oskutin posted a series of messages in the Loiste Community Discord server.

If letter in front of bits, then invert bits.
Then write down sorted values on the left. |
- "Redoubt" is synonymous with fortification, hinting the upcoming DLC, Whiprock, will have more to add to the ARG.
Clues from Zuntti
Bunker breaker clue
On 27/10/2017 at (?), Zuntti posted this image in the #somewhat-off-topic channel of the INFRA discord server. The image's filename is "retupmo_reknu_srette_tsri.png".
This is an image of the breaker panels in the transformer room just outside the bunker blast doors. The filename of the image is backwards, not Finnish, and says "first letters bunker computer" which gives a clue to read the first letter of each word on the bunker computer code word grid.
Shroom Bath clue
On 18/02/2019 at 21:29 UTC, Zuntti posted this image in #general in the Open Sewer discord. The image's filename is "bathroom_body_connection.png"
What are the observations from this image?
- The bath seems to be connected to a bunch of radios wired up together.
This image teased the addition of the Deekula tenement in Open Sewer, which added a scene in which the player's character talks with the body of "Jacob Cooper", the image filename may still have relevance.
