The Quarry | Evidence guide
The Quarry does collectibles a little differently this time around, with Supermassive Games splitting them up into Clues and Evidence. Whilst the Clues help you understand more about the backstory and history of the area you are exploring, collecting Evidence affects the epilogue and ultimate ending of the game. As such, if you want to change the ending, you’ll need to know where all the Evidence is in The Quarry. There are ten pieces to find in all, and our handy guide below will detail exactly where you can find each one. Grabbing them should help you with the Conspiracy Theorist achievement:

Chapter: Chapter 3
Where: Lake Septimus

A bloated, decomposing corpse chained to the bottom of the lake.

For this piece of Evidence, you need to make a few choices earlier in the game. Firstly you’ll need to ensure Jacob takes the rotor arm from the car to sabotage it. Then, later it will drop in the lake. Abi will then scream out for help, and you’ll need to choose to dive into the lake instead. When given another option, chose to grab the rotor arm again. This will cause you to dive further down. You’ll need to complete a QTE and then you’ll discover the Bloated Corpse. You’ll find yourself caught in some barbed wire. When given the choice, choose “Detangle” and you’ll free yourself and surface alive.
