    Doing nothing of importance.

    Well, I'm enjoying this game and want to get a bit further before doing a review. And I can be kinda retarded when it comes to puzzles in gaming... so yeah... I'm kinda stuck. A couple of things really.

    1. What's that second thing you get out of the bag in the shower room?

    2. How do you open the first aid box in the shower room?

    3. How do I turn on the security cameras?

    4. How do you switch weapons? I already have the wrench, I just don't know how to equip it...

    you only get one weapon the entire episode. there is no switching. also, as it stands, the first aid box seems like it was left in on accident, as i've scoured every corner of the game trying to find a means to open it, but have been unsuccessful. in the main thread, everybody else has mentioned their inability to open the box. safe to assume it can't be opened at this point.

    to turn on the security camera you will need a combination of items that you find throughout the areas. i believe you'll need a wrench, the cleaning spray, the main board chip, and some colored fuses. you use all of these items on the fuse box right next to the locker doorway.

    Ok thanks, the description of the wrench made it sound like it could be a weapon... And I guess I havn't searched enough as I havn't found the cleaning fluid or the fuses... and maybe the box is a preview of EP2, since you might open it in E2, meaning it might be an update or DLC? Who knows?

    Thanks again.

    yeah it could be something we don't open until the second episode. as for the items you've missed, just keep looking around...if you need the answers, i can tell you where they are.

    Yeah, I gotta look a bit more... I'm trying to figure out what's up with the shower drain... I keep getting to where I kill the first bug thing and then I keep hitting the home button without saving... it happened twice... I fail.

    no joke, make sure you make saves every five minutes or so. you can't access your inventory or save in mid battle(which is bizarre because i think we should be allowed to heal ourselves while fighting), so if you get caught and die, you gotta go back to wherever your last save was...and if you get unlucky, that could be a ways back.

    I need some help with this game.

    I have gotten to the showers, where I see a dead body and a pile of clothes. Pulling off the clothes reveals a hairpin, which I haven't been able to find a use for. There is a drain in the shower that I cannot interact with, and this seems to be a dead end for me. I tried to pick the locker with the hairpin, but that didn't yield any results. Whatever I'm missing, running back and forth and even restarting the game didn't help me find it. I'm hoping you guys can.

    As any thief knows, you need more than a hairpin to pick a lock. To the right of the showers there's another area with more items, including a screwdriver. You can keep going further in the same direction and find a whole new area with several set pieces.

    I totally missed that there was another screen to the right of the showers, the angles led me to believe that there was nothing but a wall in that area. Thanks for the tip, something like that can be incredibly frustrating!

    In the showers you can stop and look at one of the holes. He says that someone must have not had fun there. What do you do there? How do you heal?

    Also what dies the magnifying glass on the iventiry screen do?

    In order:

    1) Not sure what's in the drain -- would be good to check it out again with the screwdriver.

    2) You heal by taking pain killers. So far I've found only one bottle, though we all assume that there are more inside the medicine cabinet (which nobody has been able to open)

    3) I haven't been able to make the magnifying glass work on anything. Perhaps it's there for future episodes.

    You need to turn on power for the door outside the glass. If you paid attention as you went into that area, you will have seen a sign for "B3" (if I remember correctly). So, press the B3 button on the panel and turn the dial.

    Where the hell are pain pills?

    *spoilers*

    I already met the cop, so I can't go back into the shower area if they're in there, and I have almost no health left

    Unfortunately, you no longer have access to them. You may have to start over again (which, considering the length of the game, is less of a bid deal than it sounds). I don't remember exactly where they were -- may have been with the body. There are multiple save slots, so it might be a good idea to save before you get the monitor fixed.

    Yeah, I had to restart the game. I was right at the very end before, but I remembered all the puzzles and it took me a little less than 30 minutes to beat the entire game on my second run. The pills were located with the body, as you said.

    It wasn't THAT big of a deal, but time is money, and that game stole my time. That was just bad game design. Hopefully an update will be released that allows players to get access to that area no matter where they saved.
