Bioshock Hints

What all can I do to practice Telekinesis?

  • 1 of 11: You can start in the area where you got the power-up.
  • 2 of 11: Try picking up and throwing some of the tennis rackets lying about.
  • 3 of 11: Also, use the ball launcher switch to get the machine at the other end of the area to start firing tennis balls in your direction. See if you can catch them with Telekinesis. (It can also be fun to try to hit them with the wrench.)
  • 4 of 11: Use Telekinesis to pull down all the trophies that are on shelves. Some of them reveal hidden items, such as cash and EVE hypos.
  • 5 of 11: Note that when you pull in an item you want to pick up, you should press the Hack key to gently drop the item instead of releasing the Fire key to throw it. (Or you can press the Use key to take the item without dropping or throwing it.)
  • 6 of 11: When you go back out through the sliding glass door, a splicer will appear ahead of you.
  • 7 of 11: The best way to dispose of him is to use Telekinesis to pull in the large red gas cylinder near him and then throw it at him. It'll explode, killing him instantly!
  • 8 of 11: Leave Dandy Dental and head SW down to the Chompers Dental office, which is an optional area that you can now loot.
  • 9 of 11: On your way out of the area, you may encounter a splicer or two. You can kill them however you want, but you should practice using Telekinesis to grab handy items like ashtrays and throw them at the splicers.
  • 10 of 11: When you get back to the main lobby, you'll encounter a nitro splicer or two.
  • 11 of 11: This is your ultimate test! Use Telekinesis to grab their tossed bombs either in the air or right after they land and throw them back at their maker. When you throw a nitro splicer bomb, it explodes upon impact, and does a lot of damage.
