Escape Simulator 2 – The Safe House Walkthrough and All 8 Tokens (Apocalypse DLC)

Restore power, breach the bunker, crack the radar codes, reach Sanctuary, and collect every hidden token.

Restore power, breach the bunker, crack the radar codes, reach Sanctuary, and collect every hidden token.

The Safe House is the third map in the Apocalypse DLC for Escape Simulator 2, following 57th Avenue Station and Auto Fuel. You start locked outside a desert house and work through power, mannequin, laser, roof and radar puzzles before breaching an underground vault called Sanctuary. After the escape you can choose to stay and hunt down all eight hidden tokens scattered across the property.

Quick answer: Finish the map by opening the Sanctuary vault with slider codes 1-5-3 and 8-9-8, then inserting the keycard. The eight tokens sit on and around the house, roof, bunker and signs.


Open the front door

Look through the side window to grab the fusebox schematic note, then head behind the rear fence near the radio tower. Inspect the pink stuffed dog to collect the LOCOT key.

Use the LOCOT key on the padlocked electrical box on the front porch. This opens the box and reveals six switches beneath a lettered display.
Flip the switches to match the schematic note until the display spells out the house name, PINEWOOD. Press the red OPEN DOOR button and step inside.

Breach the barricaded room

One room is boarded up from the inside, so the only way in is to blow the wall open. A wall note points you to channel 4, which reveals the buried shed key.

Pick up the shovel inside the house. In the kitchen, grab the TV remote and a battery, then insert the battery into the remote’s compartment.
Point the remote at the barricaded room’s television through the wall slats and tune it to Channel 04. The screen shows a marked dig spot near the barrels.
Go outside to the tire tracks by the metal barrels and dig with the shovel to unearth a metal box. Open it to take the key inside.

Unlock the wooden shed near the windmill with that key to reveal seven tripod laser connectors. Carry them out one at a time.
Place all seven tripods on the marked white circles so the green laser beams connect every emitter to its detonator. The link monitor turns each point green when the path is complete.
Once all seven beams connect, press DETONATE on the outdoor console. The charge blows a hole into the boarded room, letting you collect the “Road to Sanctuary” wooden box and a bunker key from the round side table.

Collect the three bunker keys

The outdoor Bunker Access pedestal needs three keys before the hatch opens. Each comes from a different puzzle.

  • Key 1: On the round table beside the TV inside the breached room.
  • Key 2: Inside the bathroom cabinet, opened with the directional sequence below.
  • Key 3: Inside the laptop case on the roof, reached after the ladder is fully powered.

For Key 2, inspect the porch compass rose, then reorder the sliding direction plates on the “The Road to Sanctuary” box to follow its route from the front porch to the bunker. Enter the resulting sequence into the bathroom cabinet’s arrow padlock: Right, Up, Right, Up, Left, Down. The cabinet opens to reveal the second key.

Insert the first two keys into the Bunker Access pedestal now. The third is added after you power the roof.


Power the roof ladder with three fuses

The Roof Access panel on the porch wall has three empty fuse slots. Fill all three to lower the ladder to the roof.

Take the fuse from the kitchen drawer and slot it into the Roof Access panel.
Pose the mannequins on their floor circles, attach their missing hands, and set the hallway 3×3 icon switchboard to match the mannequins’ scarves and gestures. Solving it opens a hatch holding a fuse. Add that fuse to the panel.
Use the XC-87 Key Editor terminal in the office to program a keycard, then open the red hallway locker with it to obtain the third fuse. Slot it into the Roof Access panel to lower the ladder.
Climb up and take the third bunker key from the laptop case. Insert it into the Bunker Access console to open the hatch and enter the bunker.

Solar panels and radar station codes

Inside the bunker, collect the Geocache Locator and any notes and tools. The locator points you to buried solar panels needed to power the surveillance laptop.

Calibrate the Geocache Locator, then dig up all three buried solar panel segments outside. Two sit near the house base and the Test Site No. 48 sign; the third is near the outer fence.
Arrange the solar panel tiles on the roof array so the grid reaches 100% power. This brings the Station Viewer laptop online.
Enter each radar station code into the laptop, then pan that tower’s camera to read the next code. The full chain runs in this order:
OrderStation code
1893
2785
3256
4775
5243
6898
7644
8153

The two codes that unlock the vault are 153 and 898, which you carry down to the bunker door control.


Open the Sanctuary vault

Head back to the bunker basement and locate the SANCTUARY DOOR CONTROL panel. Configure the left sliders as 1 – 5 – 3, then the right sliders as 8 – 9 – 8.
Place the keycard in the central slot. This unlocks the Sanctuary doors and brings up the escape screen to confirm the run is complete.

When the escaped photo appears, choose to stay in the level so you can gather any tokens you still need before exiting through the Sanctuary door.


All 8 token locations

Eight tokens are hidden across the property. Most are attached to the back of signs or fixtures, and one has to be dug up. A system notification confirms each pickup.

1Beneath the hatch door at the bunker entrance
2Under the roof overhang near the laptop desk
3Back of the octagonal STOP sign

5Inside the lower corner kitchen cabinet drawer
6On top of the bathroom light fixture
7Under the plastic cover on the blasted room armchair
8Buried metal container close to the sandbags and rocks by the fence

Sign tokens (3 and 4)

The STOP sign stands beside the chain-link fence. Move to its back to spot the token on the pole. The PINEWOOD sign lies fallen near the oil barrels; interact with it, flip it over, and take the token from the reverse side.

Interior tokens (5, 6 and 7)

In the kitchen, open the lower drawer of the corner cabinet beside the fridge; the token is attached to its side panel. In the bathroom, find a token atop the fluorescent light fixture, above the wall cabinet. In the blasted room, lift the clear plastic sheet covering the armchair to collect the token from the seat.

Roof, bunker and buried tokens (1, 2 and 8)

On the roof, check under the eave timber next to the solar panel array for the overhang token. Once the bunker hatch is open, look at the underside of the entry steps for the hatch token. For the last one, use the Geocache Locator to pinpoint the cache near the sandbags and fence rocks, then dig up the buried metal box and take the token inside.

With all eight tokens collected and the vault open, head down into the bunker and leave through the Sanctuary door to finish The Safe House at 100%.
