You can do whatever you like with this walkthrough,
but I will not be held responsible for any regret felt
because you ruined the game experience abusing it.



* This is not intended to be the ultimate FAQ, only to descriptively &
straightfowardly guide you through the game step by
  step; the various endings, secrets, codes, etc. will not be covered in this
version, as what is known in can easily be
  found elsewhere (on the very sight I'm submitting this walkthrough to, in fact
- gamefaqs.com), & I would rather wait
  until all has been revealed in those departments,  & include that stuff in the
update; what I do cover is what I know
  from extensive play; also, I absolutely no mention is made of any story
elements, so you're pretty safe from spoilers



"""""""""""""""""""""""
General Notes
"""""""""""""""""""""""

- Puzzle solutions for Normal & Hard Difficulties are covered
- Before each puzzle solution, I have given an explanation of what you need to
do to solve the puzzle, in case you're
  just having trouble figuring out what you're supposed to do, but don't want to
know the solution
- Since the puzzle solutions are probably the most sought after information
about the game, I have placed all of what I
  considered to be puzzles at the top, noting the puzzle # & name I've made up
for it when they occur in the walkthrough
- I've noted any hidden or hard to find items, mostly ammo & such, but I realize
that I haven't necessarily found
  everything
- All directions given (left, right, etc.) refer to your perspective looking at
the screen, unless I'm describing something
  relative to something else, such as "Use the Tan Teleporter (to the left of
the jets of fire)".
- Since there are cameras & screens in this game, I will say "run toward the
camera/screen" (rather than just "camera" or
  "screen") when giving directions to avoid possible confusion
- Feel free to e-mail me with any notable information about the game you might
have (with a subject of Fear Effect), as I
  am planning to update, & I love the game



"""""""""""""""""""""""
Combat
"""""""""""""""""""""""

I'm generally not covering any combat in this walkthrough, but here are a few
things I find help to keep (insert favorite character) & the gang from getting
blasted, beat upon, exploded on, etc.:

- Always stealth kill when possible.
- Always make sure the green (or red, for stealth kills) target is at the top of
the screen before attacking.
- Never panic in combat. If an enemy is suddenly & unexpectedly upon you,
distance yourself from them if necessary, calmly
  face them (crouch if they have a ranged weapon, which doesn't guarantee
they'll miss, but it often helps; no good against
  Plasma Wrists), watch for the lock in, & attack.
- Roll to the side (or back for melee attacks) just as an enemy is about to
attack & attack them.
- To avoid running out of ammo, pay attention to the type of ammo the majority
of the enemies in a given area are giving
  up, & use the corresponding weapon to take them out, unless that weapon is
particularly ineffective in that area, or
  you want to save it.
- As always with the trusty shotgun, use it to take out tightly packed or lined
up groups of enemies.
- Certain weapons are particularly effective against certain enemies, especially
bosses.
- The quick draw button (X by default) draws the last weapon you had equipped.
- Reload by pressing square then triangle, or just sliding your thumb across
them (unless your inventory is already up &
  your weapon already selected; then it's just triangle).
- If the weapon you have equipped is near the end of your weapon inventory, &
you need to get to beginning of it quickly
  (say, to quickly equip the knife for an impromptu stealth kill), press circle
then square, & you're there.
- Practice just avoiding enemies attacks without attacking them; this will give
you insight on how to engage them
  more effectively.
- Practice selecting & firing & reloading weapons while running & rolling.

The Puzzles
"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
________________________________________________

#1  The 80/86 Puzzle

All you really need to know to figure this puzzle out is that you need to gain
access to the 80th & 86th floors, which Jin made abundantly obvious in the intro

You need to form the numbers 80 & 86 with the given patterns

To form the 80, select 1, 2, 3, 4, c, d, in any order

To form the 86, select 1, 2, 3, 4, a, d, in any order
________________________________________________


________________________________________________

 #2  The BCDEF Puzzle

You need to use the letters & numbers at the top right
of the screen to determine the input order of the numbers

After inputting each set of five numbers, you need
to flip the gray switch next to the corresponding line

The cursor is blue, so you need to start with
the line of numbers with the blue square beside it

The order is:  Blue - 3, 1, 4, 5, 2
               Yellow - 4, 5, 1, 2, 3
               Red - 2, 3, 4, 5, 1
________________________________________________


________________________________________________

#3  The +/- Puzzle

It's important to note the + & - signs when trying to figure out this puzzle

You need to put the number in the middle block, that when added
to the number in the top block, equals the number in the bottom block,
or to put it another way, subtract the number on the bottom from the number
on top to get the number that goes in the middle

The five numbers from left to right are: 2, 5, 10, 13, -1
________________________________________________


________________________________________________

#4  The EQ/Stairstep Puzzle

To solve this puzzle, study the yellow
& blue prong diagram on the opposite wall

If you look at the prongs on the opposite wall, you can see
that the left set of blue prongs has 5 lit, & the right set has 4 lit,
& the left yellow set has 3 lit, the right yellow set, 2 lit

Also, if you look at the puzzle itself you can see that the two left
columns have a blue stripe running between them, & the two right
columns have a yellow stripe running between them, so the pattern is:

5 squares in the 1st column
4 squares in the 2nd column
3 squares in the 3rd column
2 squares in the 4th column
________________________________________________


________________________________________________

#5  The Geometric Figure Puzzle

You need to make the shape on the right match the shape
on the left using the up, down, left, right, & don't change commands provided

The patterns differ between Normal & Hard Difficulty

U = Up
D = Down
L = Left
R = Right
DC = Don't Change

The commands for Normal Difficulty are:

  1st shape - D, U, D, U, D, U, D, U

  2nd shape - U, D, U, D, U, D, U, D

  3rd shape - U, U, U, U, D, U, U, U

  4th shape - D, D, U, D, D, D, U, D

  5th shape - D, L, D, L, D, L, D, L

  6th shape - D, R, U, L, D, U, D, U


The commands for Hard Difficulty are:

  1st shape - U, D, U, D, U, D, U, D

  2nd shape - D, L, D, L, D, L, D, L

  3rd shape - D, R, U, L, D, U, D, U

  4th shape - D, U, L, D, DC, D, R, U

  5th shape - D, L, R, D, DC, L, DC, R

  6th shape - L, D, R, U, DC, D, L, U

________________________________________________

#6 The Johnny 5 Special Edition Puzzle

You need to create a loop that doesn't connect
to the red energy T's & run it out to the blue
connector on the left using the pieces provided
& flipping them around, Tetris style, then press
the OK button

You can use as many of the pieces as you want

=    = straight horizontal piece

|    = straight vertical piece

-^-  = T pointing up

r    = lower case "r" shaped piece

L    = "L" shaped piece

-'   = "L" on it's back shaped piece

-,   = "r" mirrored shaped piece

In this one, I've only filled in the pieces you need to place

             1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
            1          -,
            2  r   = -'
Blue Piece> 3=-^-=       =
            4      r       |
            5      L =   L-'

Functional, but a bit confusing; here's what
it looks like with everything except the unused
parts

             1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
            1        r-,
            2  r = =-' |
Blue Piece> 3=-^-= =-, L =-,
            4      r-' r-, |
            5      L =-' L-'

Finally, if the diagram thing isn't for you,
here are the coordinates of the pieces that need
to be placed, & what they are:

(1,6) -,

(2,2) r

(2,4) =

(2,5) -'

(3,1) =

(3,2) -^-

(3,3) =

(3,7) =

(4,4) r

(4,8) |

(5,4) L

(5,5) =

(5,7) L

(5,8) -'

#7 The Beam Switch Puzzle

You need to switch the beams so that they match the
pattern on the bottom left of the screen, but to move
a beam, you need to remove the batteries from each of it's
two correspondingly colored slots on the top & bottom

To switch beams, you need to remove the batteries for both
beams at the same time

If you try to move a beam that's powered, you'll get zapped

From the beginning battery placement, move the batteries
around by picking them up with the X button, moving them
(top can't go to bottom & vice versa), & placing them again
with the X button, like this (this isn't necessarily the
best or quickest way, but it works):

B = Blue
G = Green
P = Purple
R = Red
W = White
Y = Yellow

To shorten things, as an example, "Top W to R" would
mean move the Battery in the Top White Slot to the Top Red Slot

- Top W To R
- Bottom Y to G
- Switch the White & Yellow Beams
- Top G to Y
- Bottom G to Y
- Switch the White & Green Beams
- Top B to G
- Top P to W
- Bottom B to G
- Bottom P to W
- Switch the Blue & Purple Beams
- Bottom R to P
- Top R to P
- Switch the Red & Blue Beams
_________________________________________________


_________________________________________________

#8  The DNA Puzzle

You need to fill in all of the blanks with the correct
blocks of colored stripes so that yellow is always opposite
red & blue is always opposite green throughout the string

You can flip the blocks with the circle & square buttons

A flipped block will be indicated by "(flipped)" beside it

There are twelve blocks of colored stripes to choose from,
& I'll refer to them as 1-12, numbered like so:

    1   2   3   4   5   6
    7   8   9  10  11  12

The top row has three blanks; the blocks for these,
left to right, 1-3, are:

1 - 9 (flipped)

2 - 7 (flipped)

3 - 12

The bottom row has nine blanks; the blocks for these;
left to right, 1-9, are:

1 - 1 (flipped)

2 - 7

3 - 10

4 - 8

5 - 3

6 - 4

7 - 6

8 - 2

9 - 12

#9  The Turn-Based Strategy Puzzle

You need to capture the enemy's flag before he captures yours. This is done by
moving one of your soldiers next to the enemy's flag, moving the movement cursor
on top of it, & selecting it

Not really a puzzle, just basic strategy. Maneuver your Medium & Large Soldiers
along one path taking out enemies & luring them away from their flag, while
maneuvering your Small Soldiers along another path (if available; if not, just
bring them in close behind the Medium & Large Soldiers) to capture it, except in
the case of the fourth match, where you're given all Medium Soldiers; just use
five or six of them for combat & luring & one or two to go after the flag; or
just rush

The AI is strictly defense (& not too sharp), so you don't actually really have
to worry about them getting your flag, just killing all of your soldiers

Continue to Use the gameboard until you've finished the four matches
______________________________________________


______________________________________________

#10  The Eight Colored Stones Puzzle

You need to drop the colored stones into their
corresponding slots using the cursor

You must drop the bottom ones first, so that the top ones can rest on them

The pattern differs between Normal & Hard Difficulties

"Push the (insert color) stone-" is implied for each of these

One Method for Normal Difficulty is:

  1. Orange right
  2. Green left, then down
  3. Lime Green right
  4. Red right, then down
  5. Light Blue left
  6. Lime Green down
  7. Gray beneath Dark Blue left
  8. Dark Blue left
  9. Orange down
 10. Brown down, then left, then down
 11. Dark Blue down
 12. Light Blue down
 13. Gray above Purple right
 14. Purple down, then left, then down


One method for Hard Difficulty is:

  1. Light Blue up, then left
  2. Dark Green up, then left
  3. Gray above the Dark Green left
  4. Red right, then up, then left
  5. Dark Green down
  6. Gray that is beneath the Red & Dark Blue left
  7. Dark Blue left
  8. Red down
  9. Brown down, then left, then down
 10. Dark Blue down
 11. Orange & Lime Green right
 12. Lime Green down
 13. Orange down
 14. Gray beneath the Light Blue left
 15. Gray beside (on the left of) Light Blue down
 16. Light Blue down
 17. Purple left, then down
_______________________________________________


_______________________________________________

#11  The Musical Squares Puzzle

You need to step on the musical squares in the correct order,
without stepping on any of the pain inducing squares (if you do
you must return to the two starting dark squares & try again)
finishing by stepping on the set of two dark squares on the
other side

You must also restart if you step on a musical square out of
order

The symbols of the squares you need to step on & the order you
need to step on them, from top left to bottom right, can be
found on the sides of the door you started at; also the tune the
squares play when stepped on in the correct order frequently
plays in the background music

The symbols of the squares that will hurt you are written
in red on the back wall of the room
