Where to Find the Whale
The whale is in the Green Office maze, reached through the first door on the right off the Waiting Room's leftmost hallway. From the maze entrance room, turn right at the first T-junction, left at the next, and follow the corridor past its branches to the far corner and the whale room; discovering the whale unlocks Out of water.
Reach the Green Office Entrance
- Buy the €10 Waiting Area key to unlock access through the central Playroom's second door on the right.
- Enter the second door on the right to reach the Waiting Room, also called the Waiting Area.
- Follow the Waiting Room's leftmost hallway to approach the door leading into the Green Office.
- Open the first door on your right along that hallway to enter the Green Office.
- Pass through the opening in the wall to reach the labyrinth entrance, where the maze directions below begin.
Check which Waiting Room hallway you used before following the maze turns. The Gramophone is in a separate green-carpeted room, through the first right-hand door off the middle hallway. If you reached its white-topped table, head back and choose the leftmost hallway for the Green Office maze.
Follow the Maze Turns to the Whale
- Turn right at the first T-junction after leaving the maze's entrance room.
- Turn left at the next T-junction to continue along the route toward the whale.
- Follow the hallway around its next corner to reach the straight stretch of the route.
- Continue straight to the far end of the hallway, passing every side path without taking it.
- Take the corner at the end of that hallway to face the whale room straight ahead.
- Reach the whale ahead to discover it and unlock the Out of water achievement.
Find Your Place After a Wrong Turn
Keep the doorway directions separate from the maze directions. The first right-hand door belongs to the Waiting Room approach, while the right-then-left turns begin at T-junctions beyond the maze entrance room. If you have lost track of which junction you passed, retrace your recent route to a place you recognize before continuing.
Players have also reached the whale by turning right at the beginning of the maze and then following the left wall until the whale appears. Try that approach from the maze entrance if you prefer following a wall to remembering junctions. Keep using the same approach as you move, so you can track what you have done.
Check the Achievement and Leave Time to Return
Out of water requires you to find the whale, and discovering it is the achievement trigger. Check the achievement after reaching the whale so you can finish the detour with your goal accounted for. The whale is optional for the normal ending.
Leave time to get back to your starting room before the lights go out. When the lights begin shutting down, head home and keep to the light. Avoid adding unfamiliar side corridors to your return journey when the shift is already ending.
