Puzzled by the elevator door code in Routine? We will tell you how to unlock it

Routine is a first person sci-fi horror story. It is very immersive… to the point that it might be quite confusing at the beginning, when you have to read tutorials on the screens of in-game computers. It is a great idea, but some players might find themselves lost. That’s why we will help you to find your way, unlock the closed elevator door and progress the story.

How to find the elevator door code in Routine

After leaving “bedroom,” our character finds themselves in the middle of the dark corridor. Once we go right, the window with Moon view opens. There are 2 doors next to it. One of them is closed – it is our elevator. We can’t unlock it yet, though. Pick the passage on the opposite side of the corridor. The door will open.

1. In the room, take CAT from the table. This device will be quite useful later. For now, start reading a tutorial that will be shown on the wall in front of you.
2. After a few slides, you will see that it is necessary to get a battery for your CAT.

4. Now, you can go back to the elevator and input the door code.
5. All you need to do at this point is to interact with a computer in the center of the elevator and press “Gateway.”

Good luck.
