BioShock: The Collection eGuide Bioshock Walkthrough Fort Frolic

Bathysphere Station

Objective 1: Go to Hephaestus

Ryan is in Hephaestus. Use the bathysphere in Fort Frolic to reach him.

The Bathysphere Station in Fort Frolic consists of a short corridor that connects two separate metro stations. Here you will find all sorts of vending machines, slot machines, and even a fortune teller and a jukebox. You may not be too tempted to give the one-arm bandits a try at ten bucks a pull, but you have a good chance of winning as much as $250, not to mention the “Lucky Winner” Achievement. Use the Gene Bank to install Telekinesis if you haven’t already done so, and use it to grab the Automatic Hack Tool from the alcove high on the wall to the south.

Continue east through the large bulkhead doors to the other bathysphere and cross the lobby towards the water. As you may facetiously expect, the bathysphere submerges on its own just as you get close—it’s Sander Cohen. Sander is the artist living in Fort Frolic and he has the keys to this place. If you want to get in or out, you’re going to have Sander’s blessing.

Objective 2: Find Sander Cohen

An artist named Sander Cohen has trapped you in Fort Frolic by cutting off access to the Bathysphere that travels to Hephaestus. Find him and convince him to let you go.

You’ll soon notice that while you were trying to board the bathysphere to Hephaestus, Sander Cohen had his Splicers string up an intricate array of Trapbolts through the main corridor. And that’s not all that’s different; the silent vacant hallway is now teeming with Spider Splicers! Grab the Machine Gun, switch to Antipersonnel Auto Rounds, and prepare for battle. The Static Discharge 2 tonic, the occasional burst of Incinerate, the Machine Gun fire should be all you need to beat back the cartwheeling horde.
