Half-Life Hints
How do I get out of the test chamber?
1 of 8: You certainly do not want to hang around this death-trap any longer.
2 of 8: The main entrance has been blown apart, so you will have no problem getting into the sub-entrance to the test chamber.
3 of 8: However, you need someone with retinal clearance to let you out.
4 of 8: Unfortunately, everyone is either dead or fleeing.
5 of 8: Take a look at the retinal scanner. It appears damaged. Maybe you can get out after all.
6 of 8: Try using the retinal scanner. You would usually get an "Access Denied" response, but not this time. The damaged scanner grants you access to leave the test chamber.
7 of 8: Once out of the test chamber, you will find a medkit on the ground next to a scientist who is trying to revive the security guard. Grab the medkit if you have sustained any injuries.
8 of 8: Explosions can occur at any time, so be careful moving from place to place.
