Ever found yourself wandering the streets of Manhattan in Control Resonant, wondering where those hidden Testing Facilities are? You're not alone. The Unsupervised Science quest sends you on a hunt for six underground FBC facilities, and they're tucked away in some pretty sneaky spots.
First things first: there are six Testing Facilities, one for each region except the Underpass. You'll find them in Downtown, Central, West Incursion Zone, Evacuation Zone, The Park, and Unknown. Each has a unique entrance, like a pipe in a construction zone or a hole in the road. We've got the full breakdown below.
Now, the puzzles. There are two types: Power Distribution and Soda Machines. Power Distribution has you moving charges between machines to keep lights green—if red flashes, add a charge; if blue flashes, remove it. You've got to stay quick for a minute without overloading or leaving a machine empty. Soda Machines is trickier: you pick up random objects that transform into other objects when they cross yellow lines. Your goal is to turn them all into Thirst Station Soda Machines and place them on marked squares. Pro tip: find a T-intersection of yellow lines and run in circles through the three zones until the cycle gives you what you need.
Here's where each facility is and what puzzle you'll face:
Downtown: Enter via a pipe in the ground floor of the Deserted Area construction zone. Puzzle: Soda Machine.
Central: Enter via a hole in a construction zone east of the Field Office Station. Puzzle: Power Distribution.
West Incursion Zone: Enter via a hole in the road in the middle of the region. Puzzle: Soda Machine.
Evacuation Zone: Enter via a hole in the road north of the Survivalist's Bunker, right next to the Fast Travel Door. Puzzle: Soda Machine.
The Park: Enter via a divergent tunnel in the sewer system, marked by an electronic sign saying 'Restricted Facility: No Authorized Entry'. Puzzle: Power Distribution.
Unknown: Enter via a hole in the road on the 'Ground' side of Unknown, southwest of the Twisted Rooftops Fast Travel Door. Puzzle: Power Distribution. This is also where you'll access the Threshold for the final part of the quest.
Once you've solved all six, you'll get a final objective: Go into the Threshold. Head back to the Unknown Testing Facility, enter the side room on the east side, and pull the lever. This opens a metal door to a tunnel filled with glitching objects. Interact with Doctor Grant's body at the end to complete the quest and get the collectible: Dr Grant's Final Report. There's also a power core charge you can transfer to open a side door and grab some resources. And for completing the quest for good, you'll earn the Untapped Scrunchie artifact, which boosts Primary weapon damage by 10% when equipped.
