The Pandora Directive Hints

Where should I go after leaving the Garden House?

  • 1 of 17: This is indeed not obvious, so to spare you a lot of travelling and disc swapping, I will give you all steps you need to take to continue the game.
  • 2 of 17: Return to your office to put things together, take some notes, etc.
  • 3 of 17: You got a notebook from Malloy, and you can hardly read it.  But you know his daughter.
  • 4 of 17: So, give Regan a call.
  • 5 of 17: Go to the Imperial Lounge.
  • 6 of 17: Examine the box you got from her in your inventory.  It has sliding tiles on top of it.
  • 7 of 17: Now, check the vidphone.  Gee, another message from Lucia.
  • 8 of 17: Call her and she will ask you for a favor, since she discovered -- don't ask me how -- that you managed to get into Autotech after her tip on Dag Horton and his connection with the NSA.  And she needs something from the NSA Evidence room.
  • 9 of 17: But you can also ask her for a favor.
  • 10 of 17: Do you remember that puzzle book?  It was about the anagrams in the Bay City Mirror.
  • 11 of 17: Ask Lucia about Anagrams.  You remember what Tex was thinking about that book with the long name from Malloy's closet in the Garden House.
  • 12 of 17: And now, it seems like you have to go to Autotech again.
  • 13 of 17: The last time you went there, you couldn't get into the evidence room.
  • 14 of 17: But that was before you killed Horton.
  • 15 of 17: Maybe Dag Horton had a Security card.
  • 16 of 17: So maybe you could visit Mac Malden.
  • 17 of 17: Ask him about the Dag Horton/NSA connection and he will arrange a visit to the morgue for you.
