Dreamfall: The Longest Journey Hints
How do I enter the security office?
1 of 11: First, try opening the door.
2 of 11: Once you do, Damien tells you that you need to deactivate the grid on the floor, and that the only way to do that is with another spider robot.
3 of 11: That one's located in the cybernetics office.
4 of 11: You can find a spare spider on your left as you're entering.
5 of 11: The interface to control the spider is something you're already familiar with.
6 of 11: Use your mobile on the spider, and you'll switch to the spider's view. Move this spider the same way you move Zoë or the other characters. You'll switch back to Zoë once you've done everything necessary. (NOTE: You do need to try opening the security office door before you come here, or you won't be able to use the spiders.)
7 of 11: This spider doesn't have the software it needs, so you need to get it from the other spider.
8 of 11: Walk around the core hallway -- this time going clockwise -- until you encounter the other spider.
9 of 11: Then just attack it when the appropriate action icon appears. (It's not like the other spider knows you're controlling this one, so it won't put up a fight.)
10 of 11: Another action icon on the now zapped spider lets you download the security software.
11 of 11: Walk around until you reach the security office, and look to the right for a docking station. Once you walk the spider into that, and use the action icon, the security grid in here will be deactivated, and you'll return to controlling Zoë.
