How To Get To The Labs In Atomic Heart

In Pavlov's laboratory, there are multiple experiment's that shouldn't be seeeen. Including a head we are transporting.

It’s one thing that finding Labs can be extremely tricky (especially if you’re trying to hide something), but it’s even another if you add multiple puzzles to it! Although this adds to the game’s charm, nothing beats using some brain cells to solve puzzles and kill some weird enemies along the way. But we have an essential mission, transport Viktor’s head to the Complex lab; follow this guide on how to get to the Labs in Atomic Heart!

Atomic Heart – How to get to the Labs

Now that you have Viktor’s Hmustu need to make your way to the Labs, so expect puzzles and maze-like rooms. During the Blood Courier Mission, you begin on the top floor of the Pavlov Complex after completing the Infirmary Mission. From here, you must make your way down to the Seventh floor, turn left, and you will see a locked door.

Using the correct combination of rotations, you can enter the next room. You can either avoid combat or strike down your enemies as you go, but once you enter the room, turn left and descend the stairs to 0-7. Once you’ve passed the bot swinging its arms wildly in the room, enter the first door to the right; it will have a red light above it.

Find a way to the Labs

Once inside the room, turn left and go down the stair to turn the water pressure handle; after that, make your way back upstairs and head down into the water to swim your way across to the other room. Once you have made you’re way to the other side, you will see a snapping lock on the door. To open this door, snap your fingers (in-game) as the green lights pop up.

You will then enter a large white room with a few scantily clad bodies on the table (dead, of course); before you reach the third puzzle door, you will need a key disk. Turn left and make your way to Room 1; at the back of the room, you will see a cubby hole, pick up the disk and make your way to the puzzle door to unlock it.

Exit the Morgue

You can now turn left, head to the elevator, enter, and select the 34 button. After some awkward waiting (with zero elevator music, extremely morbid, if I do say), you will enter the Morgue. Head inside and make your way to the end of the Hall towards the stairs; from here, make your way up to the second floor and enter the room to your right.

Walk down the long dark hallway, enter the first door to your right, and walk up the stairs. You will then enter another large room in the Morgue; once again, go to the opposite end of the room and go up the stairs to the second floor. Here you must remove another combination puzzle to exit the Morgue.

Once you’ve exited the Morgue, turn right and go to the Distribution Center. Here, you must solve another snapping puzzle to make your way to the stairs. After this, make your way upstairs to solve (you guessed it) another combination puzzle, INCLUDING and snapping puzzle. Once you enter, you can make your way down the stairs, turn right, then left, and finally, after making your way through the maze, you have made it to the Complex Lab!
