Complete walkthrough for The Cycle Continues (Neutral Ending) in I Hate This Place. Learn how to defeat the Broodmother, navigate the tunnels, and achieve the neutral ending.
Walkthrough
- 1Pursuing Adam: Head northwest and then north in the Forest to find a gate. Use the key to enter. You will face the Broodmother and smaller spiders. Use weapons like the Submachine Gun or Riot Shotgun to defeat them. Keep your distance from the Broodmother and focus fire on it if it pulls you in. This fight rewards the 'That’s a hell of a spider' achievement. After the battle, you can work towards the 'Full picture' achievement by finding all 41 locations on the map.
- 2Exploring the tunnels: After the Broodmother fight, head north to find a bunker entrance leading to a series of tunnels. Navigate through the tunnels, fighting spiders and other enemies. You will find maps, save points, crafting stations, and lootable containers. Key items to find include the Minecart Brake Lever and Fuel. Use the Minecart Brake Lever and Fuel to activate a minecart, which opens a path to a Workbench and a shortcut. Continue through the tunnels, using shortcuts and navigating electrified areas. You will find a Crank on a machine; use this to open doors. Eventually, you will find a ladder to exit the tunnels.
- 3Going above ground: Head northwest to find the Druid’s Hut. Loot the boxes, use the Workbench, and explore the hut. Inside, you'll find a TV save point and a trapdoor that is currently inaccessible.
Tips
- Ensure you have Fuel x2 and an Electric Grenade x1 before proceeding.
- Crafting all weapons at the Workbench will earn you the 'Arsenal' achievement.
- The spider battlefield is one of the 41 locations needed for the 'Full picture' achievement.
- Molotov Cocktails or Mining Explosives can be used to break obstacles in the tunnels, but be mindful of their effectiveness against moving targets.
