Welcome to the final part of our walkthrough for Routine.
You’ve managed to drain the Overflow and upgraded your Security Clearance to Level 3. Now all that’s left to do is align the Prongs to enter The Canal.

Aligning Prong 01
The chapter begins with you in the upper level of the Ward. Use the elevator at the other end of the room and use it to head down.
This takes you to the Reception area. Use the Breaker terminal through the narrow passage in this room to divert power to Prong 01.
Walk toward the door that leads to the White Tree area and turn right near the entrance. You’ll spot the Prong 01 door.
Use your Interface Module to open the door and head inside.
You’ll find a terminal past the door. This lets you align the first Prong.
Walk up to it, and then use the directional and zoom buttons on the screen to move the camera around until both the Proximity and Clarity percentage goes up to 100.
Aligning Prong 02
Now that you’re here, it’s a good idea to head to the Archives section and use the Wireless Access Point to save your game. When you’re ready, head through the door that leads into the Systems area from the White Tree. Be careful of Entity A while you’re in this section.
Go straight till you hit the wall, then turn right to spot the Prong 02 door. But it’s not powered yet.
Turn left and run all the way to the end of the corridor. You’ll spot the tunnel that leads to the Breaker terminal in the area. Use it to divert power to the Prong 02 door.
Run to the Prong 02 door and use your Interface Module to head inside. You’ll find another terminal here.
Like before, align the Proximity and Clarity until it goes up to a hundred percent. When you’re done, return to the Archives area and save your game.
Entering the Echography
From the Archives room, head through the hatch that leads to the Breaker terminal. From the terminal, divert power to Imaging 01.
Return to the White Tree area and go through the door marked Imaging 01. It’s on the right. Use your Interface Module to open the door.
Continue through the area, and you’ll spot the Echography door on your right, but you can’t access it yet.
Keep moving along the red corridor. Go straight to the end and turn right.
Continue moving forward. You’ll spot a door on your left called The Path. It’s locked for now.
Head down the corridor across the door to find another Breaker Terminal. Use it to divert power to Echography.
Return to the Echography door and use your Interface Module to head inside. There’s a Tape Recorder on the table that you can listen to.
Head to the back of the room to find the Lunar Echography Terminal. We’ve already aligned the two Prongs, so just press Continue.
There will be some static, and after that, you’ll see a message flash up on the screen.
Go back to the corridor leading to the Echography Breaker terminal. The Path door will now be open.
Head through the long corridor till you reach a room with a huge turbine.
Turn right and go to the end of the room to spot an opening through the wall. You’ll fall to your knees as you reach the door.
Once you stand back up, head inside and choose Yes on the screen.
The Finale
The area will start shaking, and the sound of an alarm will go off. Run all the way back to the Archive room. Don’t worry about Entity A at this point.
When you reach the Archives room, head towards the tunnel at the back, across the Archive screen. Be ready for a jumpscare.
Entity A will grab you from the dark corridor. Mash all the buttons, and he’ll toss you away.
Turn around and continue walking through the tunnel to reach The Canal.
Turn left and head towards the blue light. Enter the area and use the terminal to engage the airlock.
You’ll find yourself transported to an empty cave.
Continue moving forward till you spot a slope heading downward. Go down the slope, and soon the screen will turn black. This will trigger a short cutscene.
You get transported again, this time to a blue area with thin vines sprouting from the ground around you. You’ll spot a sphere up ahead.
Go towards it. The sphere will open, and a figure will rise from within, triggering the final cutscene of the game. Congratulations on finishing Routine!
