All Quarantine Zone: The Last Check endings and how to get them

The fate of humanity is left in your hands; to find the infected of Quarantine Zone: The Last Check and to keep those hordes from destroying everything you’ve built. How thorough is your inspection, and can you keep everyone inside The Block safe for evacuation?

Stay vigilant, follow orders, and discover what ending is on the horizon inside Quarantine Zone. Moving from Tutorial mode to the Campaign, there are two endings to get in Quarantine Zone, separated into the good and the bad. For this Papers, Please-style medical sim set at the start of a zombie apocalypse, your choices determine the outcome of the human race. It’s a lot to carry on your shoulders, but someone has to do it. So, here’s a rundown on how to get both endings in The Last Check.

Quarantine Zone ending guide

The Campaign consists of 26 days, where you can either leave via the helicopter or stay, resulting in Endless mode from the 27th day if you find success inside Checkpoint Alpha. The goal is to evacuate the uninfected to “give humanity a chance.” From upgrading The Block, ensuring no one dies inside it, and researching new symptoms to diagnose more effectively, there are many ways you can fumble the bag and lessen humanity’s chances of survival.

So, here’s what you need to do to keep the medical sim cogs turning in the right direction.

Good ending – Good Work, Son

What you need to remember when navigating the perilous and at times, comedically janky Checkpoint Alpha is that your uninfected takes top priority in this mission. The way to ensure this is to be vigilant in your inspections; sending infected to liquidation and the Laboratory for symptom analysis, the sick into Quarantine for rechecking, and the symptomless into the Survivor Block. It’s guaranteed you’ll let in an infected during your playthrough, but so long as they’re placed into Quarantine, you can wait out their symptoms and move them into the zombie cage before they transform.

The goal is to fulfil every Evacuation Quota. These are scripted and always appear at the end of days: 5, 10, 15, 21, and 26. While you don’t need 5/5 successful quotas, having four fulfilled correctly helps you get the good ending. Here’s what to expect from each quota:

• Day 5 – Five uninfected.
• Day 10 – Nine uninfected and zombie cage.
• Day 15 – 14 uninfected and zombie cage.
• Day 21 – 17 uninfected and zombie cage.
• Day 26 – 18 uninfected and zombie cage.

Any infected count as a member of the quota, so it’s always best to send a couple more survivors so you can reach the uninfected quota total. This is because the quota is tallying the number of Non-Infected to send via the Science and Military Trucks, so infected survivors will count against the tally.

Another key part is to remember the zombie cage. This is another scripted moment that comes into fruition from Day 10 with the “Hi Doggy” questline. You need a zombie inside the cage for four out of five evacuations, or you will fail them. Manually move the zombie into the cage from Quarantine. You can only send one at a time. The cage is automatically evacuated to the science division so long as you have a zombie inside it. Refer to the yellow dot next to the cage icon in the top-left corner of the screen (yellow dot means you’ve contained a zombie), beside the three-person survivor icon, and remember to keep the zombie well-fed with one corpse per day.

Finally, consistently aim for zero deaths inside the Survivor Block. To do so, send patients to the correct sector, and only those clear from signs of infection and safe from contraband should enter the Block. Keeping the survivors safe is directly tied to The Last Check‘s Tasks, so complete the quests as you’re playing through the game.

Bad ending – SNAFU

The bad ending can be achieved by doing the opposite of what’s expected of you. Should the Quarantine Zone Wall fall during the zombie waves that you must shoot at with the drone at the end of each day, or if you neglect/fail Tasks, you’re increasing the odds of receiving the bad ending.

Missing three or more Evacuation Quotas also contributes to getting the bad ending. Even if you send the required number of uninfected to the Military or Science Trucks, not having a zombie cage in Evacuation Quotas four to five results in failure. Sending patients to the wrong sector, healthy survivors into liquidation, or infected with the zombie virus into The Block are poor inspections, and yet another reason to reward your work with the bad ending.

The Hi, Doggy quest not only has a funny name, but it’s a rather interesting task to complete in Quarantine Zone: The Last Check.

The Hi, Doggy is a relatively early game quest that you can unlock on day 10. It’s a core campaign quest, so there’s no way of skipping it (unless you’re playing in the Endless mode). This guide will help you figure out how to feed your zombie.

How to start Hi, Doggy quest in Quarantine Zone: The Last Check

The quest begins at the start of day 10 when the major briefs you about what needs to be done. When you’re in the early game, there’s not much you can do with a zombie in Quarantine. However, this quest will introduce you to the Cage in the Laboratory.

The Cage can contain an undead and allow you to study for research. You’ll find the Cage to the right of the main lab tent (from where you can discover new symptoms). Your next task is to feed the zombie. Head straight from the lab gates, and you’ll end up in front of the locked zombie.

How to feed the zombie in Hi, Doggy quest

This task is pretty simple. Go to the Liquidation zone, where you send the infected to be chopped. You’ll find a marked area by the pile of bags. Pick up a body bag, put it on the card, and go back to the laboratory tent. If you can’t pick up the body, chances are that the cart isn’t close enough. Interact with the cart and bring it closer to the body bags.

Park the cart next to the Cage, and interact with the body bag carrying the corpse. Pick it up, and put it in the Cage, and the zombie will start to eat. This will complete the Hi, Doggy quest. Make sure to put the cart in the highlighted zone so that the corpse can be fed to the zombie trapped inside.
