WHY THIS TOOL EXISTS

Keep the puzzle—or save the time

Lockpicking can be a satisfying challenge and naturally slows down how quickly your character finds new equipment. It can also add several hours for players who prefer the story and exploration, do not enjoy logic puzzles, or simply have limited time.

The solver helps you save time and Learning Points that you can spend on developing your character instead of the lockpicking skill. Good luck in the Colony.
