Follow our step-by-step guide for Assassin's Creed Syndicate's 'Spanner In The Works' memory, covering infiltration, target assassination, and escape.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    After the opening cutscene, drop down in the ironworks and approach the locked door.
  2. 2
    Interact with three golden objective markers (valves) around the room.
  3. 3
    After the door opens, perform an air assassination on the Thug as prompted and go through the doorway.
  4. 4
    Engage in a tutorial combat sequence against three enemies, learning attacking, countering, and guard breaking.
  5. 5
    Continue towards the next objective marker and enter the outdoor area.
  6. 6
    Reach the green objective marker on top of the crane using freerunning abilities.
  7. 7
    Use the counter button (B/Circle) to drop safely to the zone below.
  8. 8
    Reach the foundry building in the distance, choosing your path (combat, stealth, or a mix).
  9. 9
    Inside the foundry, you can open the main door by interacting with a chain or enter via a balcony on the left.
  10. 10
    Head towards the assassination target, located in an area marked by a green objective marker.
  11. 11
    To reach the target's area, use the pipes above a room to enter via a hole in the wall, contending with fewer guards than the ground route.
  12. 12
    Move through the foundry until you reach the room with the target.
  13. 13
    To assassinate the target, choose one of three entrances to his second-floor office: a hole in the roof for an air assassination, a guarded doorway on the far right, or a ground-level doorway requiring dispatching guards and climbing a ladder.
  14. 14
    The easiest entry is via the roof for an immediate air assassination.
  15. 15
    After assassinating the target, exit the office through the newly opened door.
  16. 16
    Move through the hallway and exit to the balcony.
  17. 17
    Use freerun down techniques to drop onto the passing train below to escape.
Tips
  • Use the pipes to enter the foundry and the target's office area for a stealthier approach with fewer enemies.
  • The roof entrance to the target's office allows for a quick air assassination, bypassing guards.
  • Practice combat and countering when prompted to master the melee system.
  • Hold the jump button (A/Cross) for freerunning up and the counter button (B/Circle) for freerunning down.
