Your escape from the factory in Poppy Playtime Chapter 4 is far from over. After activating all the machines, you’re thrust into the desolate No Man’s Land, a wide-open area patrolled by the relentless Yarnby. Your final objective is to activate a crucial terminal, but it’s locked down, and the keycard you need is hidden away. This guide will walk you through the steps of navigating No Man’s Land, solving the terminal puzzle, and ultimately escaping this dangerous area to continue your pursuit of the Doctor.
How to Find a Way out of No Man’s Land
In Poppy Playtime Chapter 4, after getting all the machines running inside the factory, you’re not done yet! You have one final task: activate a terminal out in No Man’s Land before you can leave. It’s a quick puzzle, but there’s a catch – Yarnby will be chasing you the whole time, even outside the factory walls. To escape No Man’s Land and finally confront the Doctor (and hopefully stop him!), you’ll need to find a keycard and disable the lockdown.
Out in the open area of No Man’s Land in Poppy Playtime Chapter 4, you’ll find a terminal with wires snaking out and connecting to various electrical boxes and shutter doors. Your goal is to get the electricity flowing to the main control room. This will lift the lockdown and let you escape the area. But first things first: you need to find a keycard to even use the terminal!
Terminal Puzzle
Watch out for Yarnby patrolling No Man’s Land! Move slowly and only run if you absolutely have to. The keycard you need is in a locked room with a glass window, right next to the terminal. To get inside, you’ll have to find a lever to open the door. Facing the terminal, turn around and walk to the end of the corridor, then turn left. Go into the red room on your left. Squeeze through the gap you find there, and you’ll find the lever you need.
Okay, now leave that room and turn right. You’ll find a slot for the lever behind the room with the glass window. Pop the lever in and head inside. Squeeze through the gap and you’ll be in the locked room! Snag the keycard from the chair, and while you’re there, pull the lever on the terminal inside to unlock the door. As soon as you step back outside, don’t forget to interact with the electrical box nearby. This will redirect the power to the terminal you need on the right.
Find a Way out of No Man’s Land
Alright, with keycard in hand, head back to the terminal in No Man’s Land and use it. Then, cross the drawbridge to the main area. Here’s the next step: you need to use the two electrical boxes in this main area to send power to the control room with the red shutters. Go inside the control room and pull the lever to finally lift the lockdown in No Man’s Land! Once that’s done, leave the control room and look to your left. You’ll see a door with hand scanners on each side. Quickly place your blue and red hands on the scanners to close the door behind you. Now you’re on your way to the next part of Poppy Playtime Chapter 4!
