    Rescue / help all victims in the game

    How to unlock Ultimate rescuer

    Missable

    Throughout the game you will come across various victims/survivors that are in need of your assistance. Most require a specific resource item and others require you to free them by either, killing the person who is holding them hostage or shoot off their handcuffs. For each victim you help you will be rewarded with one extra retry which can help if you are struggling at certain points of the game. In some instances the items in which the survivors require can be quite rare, and as such I suggest you rescue all victims on your first playthrough on Normal difficulty as the importance of these items, e.g. First Aid Kits, Food Cans etc., is not as crucial as they are on second playthrough on Survivor difficulty.

    Note: Not all items that the victims require are found in close proximity to their location. As such please see the list of items below in which you will need to collect from a specific location before you get to the specified victim.

    Items required that aren't near their respective victim:

    • Wine - This can be found at the end of Episode # 4 - Dust. You will have to slide down a pole and enter the dusty streets and head to the right to climb another pole into the skyscraper and end the level. As you approach the pole you will see a second one to the left of the first one. Climb it all the way to the top to pick up the bottle of Wine which you will need for Victim # 5.
    • First Aid Kit - This can be found during the early stages of Episode # 5 - Skyscraper. You will come to an outside section with a red service elevator on your left in which you will need to find two jerrycans for. Before you continue to find them, turn around when facing the elevator and on the ledge will be a pipe sticking out. Slide down it and shimmy to the left and then climb up the ledge to find the first aid kit. Just be sure not to use the first aid kit as you will need it for victim # 3 at the end of Episode # 5 - Skyscraper.
    • Food Can - For Victim # 8 you will need to supply her with 2 Cans of food to save/rescue her. There are plenty of places to find Cans of food, especially if you are following the walkthrough of the game given in the Road Map above. Just make sure that you save at least two Cans of Food for her. If you don't have two Cans for Victim # 8, you will have rest to the beginning of the Chapter and make sure you pick up 2 Cans in the Episode before you reach her.
    • Cigarettes - You will need a packet of Cigarettes to rescue Victim # 10 in Episode # 10 - Radio Haventon. The only pack of cigarette located before this point of the story is in Episode # 8 - Line 4 in the room in which you rescue Victim # 8. Just make sure you pick them up and not use them. There is no benefit to using the Cigarettes, because they actually lower your health and score so you shouldn't be tempted anyway.

  • hard to find them all.i found 18 people after 1st attempt
  • Hi! Can i unlock this trophie in normal mode? At first i complette in Survival more and at now want to unlock this trophie)
  • People need to learn to either type English or to not try at all... Either way, finding all 20 is not hard at all...If you explore around like the game intended you to, it'll be no more of a chore than finishing the game. And if you keep using your ressources needlessly, well then you need to stop sucking so badly at the game and keep your ressources.
  • Pitty there's no platinum trophy for this game.
  • I'm so mad because I missed 3 of them. The problem is I can't go back to some places to save the rest. Stupid devs, they should've give the player the option to replay a certain part without resting your damn progress. I really don't want to replay the whole thing for one achievement (I got the xbox ver)
  • I found 2 more victims than they said in episode 6, so i helped 4 victims only in episode 6.
  • Sorry make it 5 victims only in episode 6. Keep exploring and you will find more than you need
