Living in New Eridu is quite dangerous since there’s always a chance of a small Hollow appearing near you. While most of the rescue work is done by the government, Proxies may also lend their aid to people in need. During the Survivor Rescue side quest in Zenless Zone Zero (ZZZ), you must solve several puzzle stages to distribute medicine. Besides reaching the endpoint, you can also grab several Gear Coins to obtain Observation Data.
ZZZ Survivor Rescue Puzzle Solution
You can start the Survivor Rescue side quest after reaching Chapter 1 Intermission. Then, you can go to Sixth Street and find a man labeled Hesitant Person in the back alley. He will then put up a request on the Inter-Knot that you can accept.
Puzzle 1
After completing the tutorial section, you can immediately rescue one person in the Survivor Rescue’s first puzzle stage. There is no danger in this section, and you just need to help one person and grab on Gear Coin.
- Go up to rooms and then turn left.
- Go up again until you reach the corner.
- Then, head to your right and grab the Gear Coin.
- Go down one room and turn right.
Once you complete this stage, don’t forget to unlock the vault using the Gear Coin. Behind the wall, you can claim the first Observation Data in this area.
Puzzle 2
The second Survivor Rescue puzzle contains two people and two Gear Coins. You also need to avoid one Contamination room if you don’t want your units to lose their HP. Here is the solution to this challenge:
- Turn left and then go down two rooms.
- Turn left again but head upwards until you reach the corner.
- Go right and grab the Gear Coin but stop above a survivor.
