- Gown down then left.
- Use this machine to move the ladder.
- When the lights are both facing one direction thats where the ladder will be.
- The wheels work like this:
- When you turn a wheel, the one you click moves 1/4 turn, and the other moves 1/2 turn.
- Once you have go into the left and right tubes in the room with three, go into the center one.
- Once you are outside, go right once.

- Go back to the elevator and go to the first level.
- Go all the way back to the room where you took the upper pipe on the left wall, only this time go up.
- Go up one room and turn the wheel to open up the other tunnel.
- Go down this tunnel into the bottom pipe on the right wall.
- There is a plate blocking the upper tunnel. Use the levers to unhook it.
- Now go back and enter the upper tunnel on the right wall, where you just removed the plate.
- Go right, the room on the right looks very pristine now.
- Turn the wheel on the wall just outside the room.
- Enter the room on the right, doesn’t look so pretty now.
- Use this room to gain access to whats in the cube.
- Place the cube on the pillar when the room is new. Make the room old again and pull the object out of the cube. Make the room new, and then pick up the object that fell out of the cube. Now that you have the Connection Pod, go back to the area where you got the cube.
- This time go to the third level.
- Go left, and there is a space in the wall, Put the connector in there.
- Go up and then move the ball to the other side to open Door 5 of level 1 of the facility (Middle button on the elevator)

- Put the connector in the wall.
- Go down and open level 2′s 8 door.
- Go back up a floor and enter the door on level 2.
- There are two spaces for the connector in this hall
- If you put your connector in the first one you will see there is a message but it is blocked.
- Go to the second place to enter your connector. Take note of the protocol port.
- Go right and open gate 3/18, by moving the ball.
- Go back to the first connector. You can see that the message is being blocked by protocol 54-2
- Go right twice. Unblock the protocols that you need. The bottom three but leave the top one.
- Go back to the first screen of this terminal and you’ll see the message is unblocked.
- Read the message from Murtaugh. Note the things he needs you to disable.
- Take your connector and go back to the second terminal.
- Go up and move the e(lavator) block so it’s next to where you are.
- Exit the terminal and enter the elevator.
- Press the middle button on the elevator
- Exit the elevator and go up the ladder.
- Put your connector in the wall and disarm both the turrets. you need to disarm the one to the left before the bottom one.
- Exit the terminal, go down the ladder and enter the left room.
- Go up the ladder and use the connector on the wall to the right.
- Remember the protocol you needed to disable from earlier? Go screw that one up.
- It’s protocol 2-18, go up and then left. To screw it up you need to start the reset and then cancel before it finishes. Go back to the elevator and go to the top level.(Right button)
- Exit the elevator and go up the ladder. Ignore the things on the wall, they were shooting electricity but you’ve disabled it.
- Go up and enter your connector on the wall.
- Enter the mainframe.
- You can only go places where the dotted line is connected.
- Go left first.
- Move the mouse around to move the circles. Try to make them meet up in the center and form a line. Your cursor should be in the middle and to the left of the grid of numbers in the background.
- Go back to the main screen.
- Click the circle in the middle to move the dotted line.
- Move the line so that you can go right.
- Go right then up, flip the ball to the other side.
- Go down and then right.
- Flip this ball to the other side as well.
- Now go back to the main screen.
- Make the dotted line go upwards, and go up two screens.
- Press the button. You now have 5 choices.
- You need to deal with the four lower ones before you can use the top one.
- We will start with the top right corner.
- This is just like last time, you need to move the mouse to where the dots meet up. If you put your cursor over the P in protocol, at the top right corner, and just keep moving left along that axis you should hit the sweet spot.
- Now the bottom left corner, you just need to turn the switch off.
- For the bottom right corner, you need to move the balls so the one at the end is in the circle. This shouldn’t be too hard.
- Now for the top right circle. Just move to the right, and click RESET on the human recognition pattern.
- Now you can go to the top circle
- Go up and turn off protocol 1-0.
- After the scene, you will not be able to go back into the mainframe.
- Go down the ladder and pick up the connector, then go left.
- Uncover the fan, and make your escape.
- Enter the connector in the teleporter.

There’s a mistake in 93.
It says “We will start with the top right corner.” but in fact 94 is the solution for the top left corner.
October 16th, 2009 at 1:37 pm
I’ve solved it without walkthrought. Great game !!!
Unfortunately, on the last screen it was written something like “Secrets 0/5″. What kind of secrets ???
October 16th, 2009 at 2:19 pm
Закончил сегодня без подсказок,намного легче предыдущей игры!
Но в конце также было написано что нашел 0/5 из секретных локаций.

Instead of those little red/blue/rust-colored balls you find, there are secret locations (I found one, but I don’t know where it was) in the edge.
October 16th, 2009 at 5:39 pm
done.
found 2 secret locations.
waiting with patience…
October 17th, 2009 at 2:53 am
can any1 tell ma where the secret placez r?
October 17th, 2009 at 3:15 am
Hey guys i figured out one of the secrets wat u do is after u get the connection pod u go back to the ledge and to the rusty, broken teleporter, and put ion da connection pod.
October 17th, 2009 at 8:53 am
I found all but one of the secret locations… still looking.
October 17th, 2009 at 4:34 pm
I just found two secret locations…
one is at do pod hole of 3 floor, next to door 8.
after you release 54.1, 54.2, 54.3 e 54.4 you go back to this hole (next to door 8) and you will find one of the locations.
other secret is in the old machine from the begining of the game (the broken one, that appear before you enter in the pipes), put the pod and a text will appear, this is other secret location).
I’m CURIOUS:
how to enter in the pipe that appears on the left of the last pipe before go in the elevator (the one we use the ID card)… it’s locked with bars… how to unlock???
what to do with the round circle in the second floor (back to the cube)??? I tried many things… nothing works…
and what about the telescope???
and what about the “toth” (the egiptian draw in the wall)??? we can point but nothing…
in one of the pod holes there were fans…
in other hole a machine…
and why nothing happens when we move the square (that release the elevator on 3 floor (door 8) just once???
so many doubts…
Mateusz: you’re a genious!
(I’m enjoying a lot the beatiful pictures of 10 gnomes series)
October 17th, 2009 at 8:26 pm
its the best game i have played ever! the plot of the story is very awesome and the additional secret locations put two strong questions in my head
Whats going on?? and the obviously
What will happen next??
Its so mysterious…
Cant wait to submachine 7!!! a whole year of waiting from now…
October 17th, 2009 at 9:17 pm
Hope. You must write ID number in the screen next to the cube (level 2). The ID is in the purple board next to locked pipe.
I is 1
O is 0

One of the secret locations is in the tube to the left of the the key card elevator. To unlock the tube, make a square pattern with ones at the place where you got the cube. The square pattern should have the center as 0, surrounded by 1′s, with 0′s at the farthest out places. An image of this pattern is visible above the tube’s entrance.
October 21st, 2009 at 1:48 pm
i just found 3 out of 5 secrets.
1: the broken teleporter you see before entering the tubes, go there when you retrieve the connection pod and connect it.
2: the tube blocked with metal bars on the left of the first elevator, copy the pattern of 1 and 0 on the panel where you found the little cube. the bars will open and you will be able to climb down in the tube.
3: infestation map, you can access it by the connection slot in the highest floor of the first elevator. before accessing the map you have to disable the four protocols in the next room (52.1, 52.1 etc…), otherwise the map will stay hidden.
still missing 2 secret areas…i think that they have something to do with the telescope, the room with 9 flashing monitors and the egyptian symbols in the ancient room, but i can’t figure out how to unlock them…
if you have found new areas, please tell us!
October 21st, 2009 at 7:37 pm
The other 2 secret areas:
4. In the pipe room with two wheels, turn both wheels down, and go back. You’ll find a new room on your way back to the tunnel’s entrance .
5. Turn the hourglass over (which makes the room on the right OLD). And get out of the tunnel, when you’re facing the tunnel’s entrance, go left. You’ll meet some carving at the end of the cliff.
October 27th, 2009 at 8:30 pm
Hey guys… did you realize that before ask the second elevator (using the card) you can go to the other side of the elevator place… and there is another pipe… LOCKED!!!
ai ai ai!!!
let’s try to find how to open it???
November 3rd, 2009 at 2:05 pm
Now… are elements like
- the ability to climb pipe to the right of the place you’re transported after inputting wrong IDN at beginning of the game
- the locked pipe at far right, unaccessible once you call down the elevator using the key card
- the telescope
- Unaccessible file #7 at the directory “below” the first mainframe screen
red herrings, unfinished/obsoleted play elements, or ultra-secrets accessible by some extremely obscure set up of all the toggle switches available in computer-space? (anyone else remembers “21 of 20″ secrets in #4?)
November 3rd, 2009 at 4:02 pm
OK… I was totally blind about the files… rest stands still.
November 29th, 2009 at 6:25 pm
As far as I can see there is nothing special for getting all 5 secrets. Well nothing special above and beyond the info you get for each secret. So if you are a storyline person, find em, if you just enjoy the puzzles and (somehow!) don’t pay attention to the story no harm done.

HELP THE WALK THROUW NO HELP
December 9th, 2009 at 1:23 pm
I found all the secrets, we actually said all of them already.
February 12th, 2010 at 3:02 pm
Even following the walkthrough mine doesn’t work. The gate to 1-12 in the mainframe never opens for me?
February 18th, 2010 at 6:28 pm
You are only suppost to disable 2-18 , 1-12, and 1-0 . Nothing else, remember that. the walkthrough it wrong.
July 3rd, 2010 at 1:19 am
when i put the connection pod in the hole, it says “unauthorized access.” i don’t know why…
August 19th, 2010 at 11:53 pm
找到四個秘密(I found out 4 secrets):
1.一開始壞掉的機器(broken teleporter),用電腦針(pod)
2.有兩個轉盤的房間(two wheels),把它們都轉往下(down),然後到下面的洞口。
3.ID : 00000 到電梯最底層左邊的另一個洞口。
01110
01010
01110
00000
4.在開四個房間的電腦孔 (52.1, 52.1 …)開完以後,出來8號門旁邊的電腦孔(next to door 8)往下,有張地圖(map?)
我猜(I guess secret 5)第五個和望遠鏡(telescope)有關……還有上面(up)那個像雷射的東西(something like X-ray?)。
我英文很爛……
My,English,is,very,bad.

So in submachine part 6 there is a pipe you can enter but not pass down to the right of where the elevator comes down. After you call the elevator there is no way to go back to the right. Is there nothing there or is it a super secret room? :)
