Technobabylon Save Points for Alternate Choice Achievements

序章

Technobabylon is interesting for the point-and-click genre, as it sometimes allows you to make different choices to solve a puzzle. You can save almost every time you want, except during a dialogue scene. There are autosaves of course, but they are kinda rare, usually on the start of a stage. If you rely on these, you may have to replay quite a bit. したがって, this guide will show you the best locations to make manual saves.

Keep in mind that other than the ones listed here, there are other achievements. But since they aren’t choice achievements, I won’t list them. Keep an eye on other guides in order to not miss them as well. And be sure to use manual saving in case you miss them. そして最後に, this guide may contain spoilers, but I’ll try to keep it minimal.

Overarching

These achievements span the whole game, I feel like I’m compelled to warn you about these:

Talking Heads: Played through the game with the commentary on

Before you start the game, turn on commentary on Settings and never turn it off. If you start before turning it on, it won’t work.

Guarded by Fate: Survive up to Part 9 without dying once

This may seem hard but is actually quite easy. The only places you can die are in Part 6 (Regis in factory) とパート 9 (Regis and Lao in airship). Keep away from the guards, and save often. If you happen to die the game seems to revive you again, but this still counts as you dying. Reload your last manual save, this way you’ll still get the achievement.

部 2

When you arrive at the train station, make a save before talking to the corpsman. This will trigger a series of dialogue scenes and take you to the next stage. You will have no opportunity to save before the bomber.

Silver Tongue: Successfully talked the bomber down

Be nice to the bomber, always pick the top line.

Hopeless: Neutralize the bomber

Any choice doesn’t really matter. いつ “希望” dialogue appears, choose it.

Unpersuasive: An explosive result

Be strict to the bomber, always pick the bottom line.

Directly after dealing with the bomber, the next stage starts at an apartment.

Make a save before using anything with the door

Elliot Ness approach: Bust Van der Waal’s door open

Use your shock gun on the door panel.

The Right One for the Job: Make use of Lao’s skills to open Van Der Wall’s door

Talk to Max, your partner after approaching and failing to open the door.

Official Procedure: Call Central for Help

Call Central from your phone after approaching and failing to open the door.

When you play as Latha in the holding cell, at one point you talked to a guy in Trance and must call a robot into the room. After interacting with it and stealing some of its contents, make a save. The important thing here is the injector.

Hippocratic Oath: A career in medicine awaits

The proper way. Involves messing around with the food machine and all that.

Placebo Effect: He won’t know the difference…

The shortcut. Just use the injector on the water machine.

部 7

Outside the Trance den, you will have to move a car at one point, revealing a sewer hatch. Talk to the bouncer and he will make a request.

Make a save here.

忍者: Entered the Trance Den using the power of shadows

In the sewer hatch, turn off the power.

Super Latha Bros: Entered the trance den by fulfilling the bouncer’s request

Do what he asked and fix the water.

I don’t need no ticket: Find another route into the Trance Den

Instead of interacting with the power controls, use the grate inside the hatch.

ゲームの終わり近くに, you’ll have Mindjacker cornered. Latha can summon a small bot, and Max can put a grenade in it.

Make a save.

Mincemeat: The Mindjacker meets his gruesome end

Send the grenade-bot to the machinery below him.

Justice for all: Successfully arrest the Mindjacker

Send the grenade-bot to the electric box above him, using the movable green panels.

The next choice achievement happens directly after this, by interacting with the console near him. You can make another save, or just pick the 2 you don’t want first, そして 2 you want later. Your final choice is who to reroute the power to:

勇敢な新世界: Nina’s argument was most persuasive.

Civic Continuity: Returned city control to Central
