Main Quest Video Guide

Building the Blundergat

Barrel. Fill the cyst soul boxes in Nuked Town. Eventually the barrel will drop from one of them.

Sealant. Found on the bookshelf upstairs of the yellow house in Pre-Nuke Town.

Hammer. Find the SO2 upstairs in the yellow house in Nuked Town. Interact with the sink downstairs of the green house in Nuked Town to fill it with sulfuric acid (each fill can be used three times). In Pre-Nuke Town, melt the faces of mannequins. one will have an audio cue and will drop a hammer in Nuked Town.

Stock. Three walls in Nuked Town have black tendrils on them:

Upstairs yellow house
Near Wunderfizz
Green garage

One will have an audio cue. Travel to Pre-Nuke Town and throw an explosive at the matching wall. Back in Nuked Town, there will be a hole in that wall containing the stock.

In Nuked Town, melee the crafting table inside of the truck and place all Blundergat parts inside to craft the weapon.

Upgrading to the Sundergat

In Nuked Town, while someone is holding the base Blundergat, an infused enemy will spawn. It is stunned until a player gets close. Nearby zombies chain to it and drain its health.

Kill it with the Blundergat while within 400 units of the crafting table. You need 3 charges in total. Charges 1 and 2 are husk zombies, and charge 3 is an EMP Mimic.

Travel to Pre-Nuke Town and melee the crafting table, placing the Blundergat inside. Travel back to Nuked Town and receive the Sundergat.

Chalk and Swing

Chalk. Find an ARC-XD remote control in one of three places in Nuked Town:

By Pack-a-Punch
In the yellow garage
Behind the green house

Interacting lets you control an ARC-XD through a small maze, ending up in a garage. Explode near the door to open it. Enter and interact with the praying zombie to spawn the chalk.

Swing. In Pre-Nuke Town, shoot the swing off from the backyard and collect the part.

Take both items to the swingset in Nuked Town and interact to trigger a short cutscene.

The Three Games

Find the seeds from the red toolbox in Pre-Nuke Town. Plant the seeds near Pack-a-Punch in Pre-Nuke Town and fill souls with the Blundergat. The seed tree needs 30 souls within a 500 unit radius, and rewards a Max Ammo.

Teleport to Nuked Town. there will be a big tree. Use a Combat Axe to chop three pieces of wood with 3 hits, then collect them and put them in the fireplace of the yellow house in Pre-Nuke Town.

Light the wood. Hit the wood directly with a thrown Molotov or thermobaric, or shoot it with Napalm Burst bullets. Flames from a Molotov landing nearby will not count. In Directed mode, a free Molotov spawns for this step. Then return to Nuked Town for the next step.

After lighting the fireplace, an X will appear in Nuked Town next to Wunderfizz. Stand on it to activate it.

Return to Pre-Nuke Town. The twins will appear drawing a hopscotch course. Interact with the glowing light and complete the hopscotch 1 through 12, then 12 back to 1. Do not step on the black smoke.

You will receive the music box. Escort it to the fireplace while filling it with souls using the Sundergat.

Headphones. Found at one of three locations in Nuked Town:

In the garbage can by the bus
Upstairs on the coat hanger of the green house
In the hand of a mannequin behind the yellow house

Goggles. Shoot the goggles down from atop a light post near Pack-a-Punch in Nuked Town. Then, using a wisp, grab them through the fence.

Take both items and insert them into the toybox in Pre-Nuked Town.

A ball will spawn in Nuked Town at one of three spots:

Above the M8A1 spawn
On crates near Pack-a-Punch
On the roof of the deck behind the green house

Shoot the ball off and to the marked X behind the yellow house. Start a game of foursquare and keep the ball in the zone for 30 seconds. The ball resets if it does not move for 120 seconds or sits outside a valid zone for 10 seconds.

A pair of cymbals will spawn. Fill them as a soul box using the Sundergat and transport them to the toybox.

Behind the yellow house in Nuked Town, a piano teacher will spawn. Brain rot her so she runs inside the house to the piano.

When she is standing at the piano, travel to Pre-Nuke Town. she will open the piano.

Flip back to the Nuked version, then find notes scattered around the map. they will be blinking. Press them in order from 1 blink through 8 blinks, then return to the piano in Pre-Nuke Town.

The notes you collected will be on the wall. Interact with the piano and play the pattern 86756535 (or AFGEFECE). A short melody will play and this step is complete.

Pattern

The piano sequence is 86756535. also written as A F G E F E C E.

Solve Order

Note Spawns

On the bus
Fence in the middle
Back of fence behind the yellow fence
Side of the bunker
On the wall near the M8A1 wallbuy
On a broken piece of wood near the house in Trinity Ave
On the garage in Trinity Ave
On a rock near the tree in Trinity Ave

A note will always spawn in each of these locations, but which note appears in which location is randomized every game.

Now in the Nuked version, you must look outside the fences and shoot 3 floating zombies. Each one of their souls will travel to an X in Trinity Avenue. Once all 3 are collected, go to the Pre-Nuked version and interact to play Jacks.

Escort the sheet music to the piano. The keys will glow yellow.

The Final Encounter

Set the clock in Nuked Town to 12:00. The "0-0" you may hear is only the audio tell. The real trigger is the hour hand on 12 and the minute hand one notch past it (0:1).

Travel from Nuked Town to Pre-Nuke Town while shooting the minute hand once. It must happen during the time travel. If done correctly, the twins will spawn near the piano.

Listen to the twins and follow them around the map to each location in order:

Piano Toybench Fireplace Swingset

At the swingset, you will be able to start the final encounter.

Fighting the Black Heart has three phases, each with three subphases. The boss is always immune for the first two subphases of each phase.

Subphase 2 (Immune). Protect each artifact for a short time.

Super Easter Egg

Open the Toybox

In the pre-nuked version of the map, go to the garage near the Temporal Portal and interact with the chalk drawing of a box on the garage door.

Then, go inside the yellow house. Upstairs there is a question mark drawn in chalk on the wall.

Throw a psyche grenade at the question mark. It will turn into a chalk drawing of a key that you can interact with.

Go back to the garage door and interact with the chalk drawing of the box to turn it into the real toybox. Interact with it to open it.

Super Easter Egg

Trinity Ave, on the slanted roof just past Wonderfizz alley
In the truck bed near Pack-a-Punch

Side Easter Egg

Mini Golf (Free Power-Ups & Essence)

Normal Yellow House Backyard. Shoot the golf ball into the hole with the white flag. A hole-in-one spawns three power-ups: Max Armor, Insta-Kill, and Bonus Points. Doing it in 2 shots spawns only a single Bonus Points.

Destroyed Yellow House Backyard. Shoot the golf ball into the hole with the white flag. If done correctly, 500 Essence will drop.

The hole moves every 5 rounds. The move is delayed if a player is within 500 units of it.

Side Easter Egg

Jumpscare

Go to the Destroyed Green House and shoot the antenna at the top until it aligns with the red orb.

Go inside the house and interact with the TV until the channel turns green, then interact once more to trigger the jumpscare.

Side Easter Egg

115 Clock (Free Loot)

In Destroyed Nuketown, shoot the clock hands to display 1:15 as it would appear on a standard clock. The clock starts at a random time each game.

Travel to Normal Nuketown while the clock reads 1:15. loot will spawn at the back of the Cul-De-Sac, the same reward bundle as the Stalking Mannequin:

A Legendary Weapon
A Killstreak
A Rare Aether Tool (blue)
A Raw Aetherium Crystal (PaP 1)
A Perk can

This can only be done once per game.

Side Easter Egg

Dissolving the Mannequins (Free Random Perk)

Acquire the H2SO4 Vial.

Pour acid on all the mannequins in Normal Nuketown. The vial holds only 3 doses. refill it at the Destroyed Green House kitchen sink as needed.

Once the last mannequin is dissolved, return to Destroyed Nuketown. a random Perk power-up will have dropped from it.

Side Easter Egg

Lost Key (Free Aether Tool)

Equip Death Perception. The keys are only visible with it, and only within 300 units.

In Normal Nuketown, look for the outline of a key inside one of the flower pots around the map. Shoot the pot to collect a Lost Key. There are 5 keys, and you find them one at a time.

Be careful. Shooting a pot without a key resets your key count to 0. Teleporting to Destroyed Nuketown and back only rebuilds broken pots, so it will not fix a wrong shot.

Collect a total of 5 Lost Keys.

Go to the bedroom in Normal Green House Upstairs and interact with the suitcase on the ground. It will open and reward Salvage, Essence, and a free Aether Tool.

Side Easter Egg

Bunker (Free Random Perk)

Build the Blundergat.

Travel to Normal Nuketown and interact with the stove in Yellow House to turn it on. Kill 3 zombies next to the stove to drop meat on the pan, then cook it with any fire damage weapon. A Molotov works but is not required.

Return to Destroyed Nuketown. a mannequin will be sitting at the table. Teleport back and forth until a Bonus Points power-up appears on the table.

Return to Normal Nuketown and go to the bunker in Green House Backyard. the mannequin should be next to it. Use Brain Rot or a Psych Grenade to turn a zombie and have it knock the bunker. The door needs 7 hits from brain-rotted zombies, so multiple zombies may be needed.

Go to the bunker in Destroyed Nuketown. loot will have dropped inside including a Mystery Perk can.

Side Easter Egg

Masked Mannequin Head

Build the Blundergat.

Interact with the masked mannequin head on the floor of Normal Green House Upstairs. Follow it as it travels to the headless mannequin in Green House Backyard and kill zombies within 500 units to fill it with souls. It needs 20 souls.

The head moves to a headless mannequin in front of Yellow House garage. Kill zombies to fill it with another 20 souls.

The head moves to Yellow House Upstairs in front of another headless mannequin. Kill zombies to fill it with 30 souls.

The floating head attaches to the mannequin. it will spin before exploding and dropping high-tier loot.

You get 60 seconds per mannequin. If you fail, the head drops and you can retry after 10 seconds. Starting the boss fight cancels the Easter egg.

Side Easter Egg

Stalking Mannequin

Build the Blundergat.

Travel to Destroyed Nuketown. The mannequin is at 1 of 4 random spots each game. The Perk location in Trinity Ave (on the right side, outside the map) is only one of the four. Stare at it from within 200 units for 5 seconds until its head turns away. it will then begin teleporting and following you.

It teleports to where you were about 1.5 seconds earlier, every 5 seconds, and freezes while any player is looking at it. If it catches you, it resets and comes back 30 seconds later in front of another player.

Shoot the mannequin. Any hit kills it, not just the head. The loot drops on the Normal Nuketown side, at the spot that matches where it spawned:

Driver seat of the truck in Trinity Ave.
Behind the fences on the left side of Pack-a-Punch in Trinity Ave.
In the wooden shed behind the Mystery Box in Green House Backyard
At the top of the chimney of the left house in Trinity Ave.

The loot is high-tier, the same bundle as the 115 Clock.
