About these locations

Every card is built from the markers the game files place in the world: scene pickups of the island and the 11 named caves. A card says how many copies the files place and in which cave or on the surface; it does not say whether the game adds more at runtime. Positions are the game's own world coordinates, shown on the map with east to the right and north up.

Weapons and tools list the damage numbers stored in the item's data. The Flintlock Pistol is not found whole: its eight parts are in caches on the surface and its ammo is in three caves. Cassettes, tapes, photos and documents are listed so you can see where the story items are; air canisters refill the rebreather, so every cave that holds some is worth knowing before a dive.

Pick a cave to see its plan and everything in it: Dead Cave, Hanging Cave, Wet Cave, Baby Cave, Submerged Cave and the others on the cave map. Open the interactive map.
