Overview

Chapter 5: Infiltration takes you into the abandoned headquarters. Instead of open testing, you hunt keycards and enter ordered sequences to move through secured rooms.

Setting:Abandoned HQ

From Lab to Lockdown

After the lab, Infiltration trades experiments for access control. You need Keycard 3, then Keycard 4, each gated behind its own small puzzle.

The mode you choose changes difficulty, but the keycard chain is the same core loop - find, solve, advance.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I get Keycard 3?

Solve the testing-room puzzle in Chapter 5; the reward is Keycard 3, which opens the next secured zone.

Where is Keycard 4?

Past the zone unlocked by card 3, solve the mid-zone puzzle to earn Keycard 4 for the secure door.

Why will not the door open?

The sequence order is likely wrong. Read the door panel for the intended order, not just the digits.

Is Chapter 5 stealthy?

It plays like infiltration - find keycards and enter ordered codes - more methodical than the open lab testing of Chapter 4.

Does Beginner Mode change the chain?

It reworks the puzzles but keeps the keycard chain, so the route you learn transfers to Standard.

What comes after?

Chapter 6: Revolution, the finale that resolves the story and can trigger the secret ending.

Any codes here?

Yes - ordered door sequences; if stuck, the codes page Hints can nudge a stalled panel.
