Incoming signal
THIS WASN’T
MEANT FOR YOU.
The public broadcast says the bunker is safe.
This one is coming from below it.
“If anyone can hear this… the broadcast is a lie. I split the message. They’re monitoring the line.”
THREE FRAGMENTS / THREE STRIKES / ONE HIDDEN WARNING
Fragment 01 / Signal acquisition
FIND THE
CARRIER SIGNAL.
Tune the receiver. When the signal is strong enough, lock it in.
▒▒▒ NO READABLE DATA ▒▒▒
Searching for a carrier signal.
Fragment 02 / Packet recovery
PUT THE MESSAGE
BACK TOGETHER.
Tap the fragments in the order they belong. Tap a selected fragment to remove it.
“Location. Hazard. Direction. Destination.”
Choose all four fragments to verify the message.
Start with where the sender is: “I am on sublevel four.” End with the destination: “to the service exit.”
Fragment 03 / Symbol recovery
RECOVER THE
CLASSIFIED FILE.
Three security layers protect the record: a shift cipher, a symbol-coded message, and a reconstructed instruction. Each requires a different kind of decoding.
Recovered intel / Symbol key
Each symbol stands for one letter. Tap a symbol in the message or key to track its repeated appearances.
Parts of this file survived. Fill the corrupted gaps from left to right using words from the original transmission. Some recovered tokens don’t belong. To correct a gap, select its word, then select another word to swap.
The orange uppercase letters in the repaired message spell the password. Read them from left to right.
Review original transmission
“I am on sublevel four. The main corridor is sealed. Follow the orange markings to the service exit.”
Archive access / Authentication required

FILE 04-07 / RELEASING ARCHIVE LOCK
Decrypting civilian processing record…
Recovery complete / Classified file unlocked
THE SIGNAL
GOT THROUGH.
“THE BUNKER IS NOT SAFE.”
The distress call didn’t come from outside the containment zone. It came from the civilian processing wing.
The names on the clearance passes match the names in a second database. That database doesn’t list guests.
It lists subjects.
“Your clearance wasn’t issued to keep you safe. It was issued to keep you here.”
You recovered the first classified record. Remember the service exit. You may need it.
