Your path will lead you to the 'Heavenly Toys' area, a section of the studio dedicated to merchandise production. This area is heavily guarded by the Butcher Gang (Charley, Barley, and Edgar), who are more aggressive and resilient than Searchers. You'll need to use stealth and environmental awareness to avoid or defeat them.
The main objective here is to activate a lift to reach higher levels. This requires finding several power cores or activating specific mechanisms. The area is a maze of conveyor belts, production lines, and storage rooms. Look for hidden passages and vents to bypass enemies. The Butcher Gang members have distinct attack patterns; Charley is a brawler, Barley uses a wrench, and Edgar is a spider-like creature. Learn their movements to effectively evade them. You'll often find 'Miracle Stations' (small hiding spots) in this area, which are essential for survival. Use your axe to break through boarded-up paths and access new sections.
