Below is a walkthrough for Chapter 8 of The Quarry. Please note that your choices, QTEs and collectibles found will impact the story. We highlighted the options we chose during our playthrough in orange. Keep in mind that we kept everyone alive and collected as many collectibles as we could!
First up for this chapter is a scene in the pool house!
- Commanding “I said shut up!”
- Uncertain “Kaitlyn, what do I do?”
- Unconvinced “All this over a poem?”
- Curious “You said you heard a woman”
- Suspicious “What are you doing?”
- Aggressive “I’ll shoot you”
- Guarded “What makes you think I know?”
- Mean “I wouldn’t tell you”
- Sarcastic “Have you thought about not killing him?”
- Compassionate “Maybe there’s another way”
- Friendly “Chris has nothing to do with this”
- Aggressive “No way you’re going alone!”
- Suspicious “This doesn’t feel right”
- Inquisitive “Have you been there?”
- Provoking “I should ask you the same thing”
- Reflective “No one knows anybody”
- Angry “Whose side are you on?”
- Compassionate “I get it, he’s your friend”
When you gain control of Laura, head to the other side of the lake away from the stairs to find the Miner’s Lunchbox clue.
Next, make your way to the left side of the entrance of the stairs to find the Old Quarry Tools clue.
Head on up the stairs and follow the path forward. There will be a brief cutscene where the railing falls down. Keep heading forward a short way, hugging the left side, to find The Lovers tarot card in the nook just before the tall set of stairs.
Head up the stairs to trigger a cutscene.
- QTE: Right (for Ryan to catch Laura)
Head up the stairs and approach the large rock column in the path. On the left side of it just before then next metal walkway, pick up the Scarred Flesh evidence that is on the ground.
Keep pressing forward until Ryan and Laura start talking.
- Patient “You know that’s not what I meant”
- Inquisitive “What box would that be?”
- Smash X
After smashing X, you’ll head into a tunnel. The Wheel of Fortune tarot card option will automatically pop up. Grab it!
When you’re ready to head forward, interact with the door! The scene will switch to Kaitlyn.
- Dismissive “We have to keep moving”
- Honest “My bad…”
- Mean “Got something better to do?”
- Encouraging “I need you”
After you gain control of Ryan in the basement, immediately turn left and enter a side room. Hug the right side to find The Empress tarot card.
In this same room, interact with the distillery machine to find the Rum Still clue. Backtrack to where you started and follow the path straight to find The Emperor tarot card.
When you’re ready to continue, approach the red tunnel.
- QTE: Down (to avoid slipping)
- Press X to open cage (We didn’t because the cage is electric!)
- Press X to Stop Laura (Otherwise she’ll shoot Nick)
- Help Jacob
- Leave Jacob
- Breaker 1
- Breaker 2
- Breaker 3
- Breaker 4
- Continue
- Breaker 1
- Breaker 2
- Breaker 3
- Breaker 4
Jacob will be released from the cage and the chapter will conclude! Back to the old woman you go! Choose to either move on or see more it does not matter.
