Animal Hospital Room 5

Room 5 is a locked room central to the Doctor's Key quest. Solving its puzzle unlocks basement access and major story progression.

Where Is Room 5?

Room 5 is located on Floor 2, at the end of the east hallway. The door is locked and requires interaction with Ratthew to begin the quest chain. Look for a door with a faded "5" plaque and a keypad next to it.

Quest Walkthrough

1

Find Ratthew

Ratthew appears randomly in hallways starting around Shift 4. Talk to him and ask about 'the locked room.' He mentions his missing sister Rattina and gives you a clue about Room 5.

2

Locate Room 5

Head to Floor 2, east hallway. The door with the '5' plaque is your target. Examine the keypad and nearby area for clues.

3

Solve the Puzzle

The keypad code is hidden in nearby hints — check the bulletin board in the Floor 2 hallway for a memo with the code. The code changes each shift, but the memo always provides the answer.

4

Enter Room 5

Enter the code on the keypad. Inside, you find an old office with a locked safe. Search the room for the safe combination.

5

Claim the Doctor's Key

The safe combination is written on a sticky note inside the desk drawer. Open the safe to receive the Doctor's Key.

6

Unlock the Basement

Use the Doctor's Key to access the Basement Key Card (found in a nearby locker). Now you can enter the basement.

Tips

  • The keypad code is always on the bulletin board memo — check it every shift.
  • Ratthew appears in random hallway locations. If you cannot find him, check different floors.
  • Rattina (Ratthew's twin sister) has an Animal Corp connection — her story continues in later content.
  • The Doctor's Key and Basement Key Card are lost each shift. You must redo the quest every round.
  • Barney the janitor may have additional hints about Room 5 — listen for his mumbling.

Lore Note

Room 5 was used by Animal Corp for "off-record" patient evaluations before the hospital was taken over. The safe contains not just the Doctor's Key but also documents hinting at what Animal Corp was really doing in the hospital. Liz the journalist is looking for this information — finding it unlocks additional dialogue with her.
