The Ward Hints

How can I put the biocontainer inside my body?

  • 1 of 12: It must first contain your DNA.
  • 2 of 12: If it is in your inventory, put it back underneath the laser where you first found it.
  • 3 of 12: The globe microscope can be used to program it with your DNA.
  • 4 of 12: Your DNA can be shot into the pulsating matter by using the buttons on the globe's examination screen.
  • 5 of 12: After the pulsating matter contains your DNA, pick it up and hide the Crystal Cone inside it by combining the two in inventory.
  • 6 of 12: To hide the whole thing inside your body, it needs a security code that it will recognize.
  • 7 of 12: Use the memorizer to create that security code.
  • 8 of 12: You can generate an entirely new random code (by clicking on Generate), or use the one that is already inside the biocontainer (a row of zeros). Either way, the code needs to be scrambled so it won't be recognized by your enemies.
  • 9 of 12: To use the one already inside the biocontainer, click on "comm.link to biocontainer."  On the next screen, click on Receive. The row of zeros will be memorized on your main screen. From there, select the newly received code and click on the "Scramble" button to scramble it. Open a comm.link again, select the scrambled code. Transmit it to the biocontainer. Now both the memorizer and the biocontainer have the newly scrambled code.
  • 10 of 12: From the main screen again, scroll to the new scrambled code and Transmit it into the air. The biocontainer will recognize it.
  • 11 of 12: If done correctly, a cut scene will follow as the biocontainer is inserted into your body.
  • 12 of 12: If it still won't go into your body, you could have used the wrong Blood Sample. Re-read these hints to see if you have missed a step while working with the codes.
