Moon — cheat sheet

Get to the Moon and grab a suit

Turn on the power

! You will need both tunnels open later in the quest, so it does not matter which you buy first — you are buying both eventually.

The Hacker replaces your suit

! Repair windows before you go hunting for the Hacker, and be careful about which barriers you let break while you are holding it.

Find the Hacker Device

Find the wire early

The three devices you need from the box

! The Gersh Device and the QED replace each other, so you cannot hold both. Solo you will be swapping between them at the box repeatedly. Immolation Liquidation makes those spins much cheaper.

How the excavators work

! The quest needs Excavator Pi to breach Tunnel 6 specifically. Letting the other two take Tunnel 11 and the Biodome improves the odds that Pi gets sent to Tunnel 6.

One player has to be Richtofen

! Sort this out in the lobby before you start. Nobody else can do those steps for him.

What this is

! The half-way point, opening the pyramid, awards Cryogenic Slumber Party on its own. If you only want that, you can stop there.

Samantha Says — the first round

! Failing just resets it, so there is no penalty for getting it wrong. Keep a crawler alive and take your time.

Hack four panels against the clock

! Find and hack four panels with green lights spread across all three floors, then get back and interact with all four wall panels so they turn red. Over 60 seconds and you start again.

Wait for Excavator Pi to breach Tunnel 6

! This is the step people quit on. Nothing you do speeds it up, so use the time to hunt the wire, farm points, and spin the box for the Wave Gun and a Gersh Device.

Free the Vril Sphere

Knock it off the antenna

! From there keep knifing it along until it reaches the Moon Pyramid Device in the power room, where it slots itself into the centre.

Fill the first canister

Open the pyramid

Blow the plates loose in Area 51

! Cook the grenade so it does not roll away from the plates before it goes off.

Move the plates with a QED

Charge the Vril Device

! Keep pressing until the dialogue stops and the screen turns green. Richtofen must pick the charged Vril Device back up before anyone leaves.

Fill four canisters and swap souls

! The souls swap and Richtofen is awarded every perk. You will know it worked because the zombies now have blue eyes.

Teleport the sphere with a QED

! This is the last time you need the QED. Swap back to a Gersh Device at the box afterwards, because the final step needs one.

Samantha Says — three more rounds

! Have someone babysit a crawler for this. Three clean rounds while a horde builds is how people lose an otherwise finished run.

Blow up the Earth

! Every player is rewarded with a permanent Perkaholic, and Area 51 is changed for good — the Earth is gone from its sky from then on.
