Entrance to Area 51

At the start of Daymare 1994: Sandcastle, walk forward to the desk in the bedroom to trigger a cutscene. Then follow the lights to find the exit and reach an elevator at the end of the hall. Then go down the stairs to reach a locker room and exit into the hallway.

You will reach the armory. Collect the two weapons near the counter to unlock the door and join the helicopter.

In the base camp, move towards the front door of the building to trigger a cutscene. You can find your way by the flares on the ground. After the cutscene, pass the nearby fence and move forward to another entrance. The key to pass is missing.

Turn around to find a tent. Go inside and search the table for the key to the door. Examine the key in your inventory to deploy the key. Now insert the key in the previous door to pass.

Go deeper into the building to find a door to the left of the elevator. Go inside and retrieve the document on the table. Nearby you will find a generator with a missing floppy disk. 

Go through the door into the hallway opposite a ladder. In this room you will find a locker and a little gray man. You can shoot the little man to get a bonus in the extra menu. Use the document retrieved previously to open the locker with the code either in our part: 215.

Insert the floppy disk in the room near the elevator to reveal an armored door in the hallway. Scan the armored door to get a bonus document. Then take the stairs to the left of the door. 

Go through the orange door and use the console to turn the power back on in the building. You have to light the pieces from top to bottom either in our part pieces #5, #3, #6, #2, #7, #4, #1.

Then exit the room to reach a new room behind a damaged door. Enter this room to retrieve a bypass cable from a box.

Go back upstairs and use the cable with the armored door to trigger a puzzle. You must align the numbers and letters of the password displayed on the left in the middle row in yellow. Once the door unlocked, sink into an elevator to the next level. 

Laboratory & Hangar

Once at the bottom, go down the hall to find a ladder in the depression on the left. Climb the ladder and turn right down the hall to find an elevator. You arrive in a circular laboratory. You can scan the device to the left of the tank to get a bonus document. Then go around the room to find a monitor in an office. 

After the cutscene, access the door that has just unlocked. You can spot it thanks to the red screens. A cutscene is triggered. Take down the threats and go through the double doors. You join the previous corridor. Go back up the ladder and go down the hall to find that the corpses have disappeared. 

Continue through the unlocked store to trigger a cutscene. Eliminate threats to sink into a pipe. Be careful, a new threat awaits you at the end. Move forward to reach an automatic door and reach a hangar.

Go down the stairs from the catwalk and go around the vehicle to find an elevator behind it. Once at the top, move forward to climb the ladder and reach the boat. Beware of enemies are inside. Follow the outside lights to find an exit. Then go down to the lower level and move forward to trigger a cutscene. Here you are facing red Decoys. Don’t waste your resources, go under the blind to take shelter. 

On the other side, use your scanner on the device near the workshop to get a bonus document. Then take the elevator to reach the upper level. Proceed through the hallways to trigger a cutscene. Then continue to sink into a gap to get the Frost Grip.
