If you have cleared the previous chapters, you’ll be in a familiar setting. The objective once again will be to survive and escape before you meet your untimely death. You’ll encounter different threats and puzzles along the way, involving a deadly gas. You’ll have to escape from it not once but twice in Chapter 4.

Let’s take a look at how you can survive the deadly horrors of the gas and escape with your health intact.

How to survive the gas in Poppy Playtime: Chapter 4

Two gas traps will be in your🍸 way🎉 during this chapter.

  • Escaping the Prison and a Red Gas trap.
  • Killing the Doctor and avoiding the Frozen Gas trap.

As you begin your adventure, Poppy will guide you to the Playtime Co. Factory, and you’ll come across a prison door after solving a few puzzles. At one stage, you’ll have to find the key to start a train. As you get trapped by the Doctor, it will mark the start of your adventures.

Surviving the Red Gas Trap

Once you wake up after starting the train, you’ll find yourself locked in the Prison. The first task is to escape it, and you can do so by completing the following steps.

  • Use your Blue Glove to grapple the Swing Bar.
  • Climb up, and you’ll find a broken vent. Use your Blue Glove to open the Blue Door on the lower floor.
  • Go back down to the prison cell and open the unlocked door.
  • You’ll notice a hole in the ground, so jump down through it.
  • You’ll find the Red Glove in the room beside the other cell. This glove will allow you to open the security doors.
  • Once you get the Red Glove, you’ll be attacked by certain critters. You can escape from them by closing the doors or shooting flares towards them to scare them off.
  • You’ll be able to find the control room by going straight through the corridor. Enter 3255 as the correct code, and take the exit door to continue until you reach another control room. Again, unlock the first door with your Blue Glove.
  • The next area will have the Access Card on the table.
  • The next couple of doors will be open, and another corridor will take you to a stone blockade.

This will be the first moment you’ll have to escape the gas as the Doctor starts releasing the toxic substance.

  • There will be broken bars around the cage. Break the bars with your Blue Glove and jump down.
  • Avoid the pipe leaking the gas, and go to the end of the corridor.
  • You’ll find some wooden panels that you’ll have to remove and then go left.
  • Once you reach the room at the end, you’ll get a table with a Valve wheel.
  • Take the wheel, return to the crack where you came from, but take the left one. Crouch through the steel cage till you reach the leaking pipe.
  • Place the wheel on the pipe, allowing you to stop the leakage.
  • Head upstairs to the control room, and you’ll find another puzzle to solve. You’ll have to enter the code 3642 to clear the gas.

Surviving the Frozen Gas Trap

Eventually, the Doctor will introduce you to a c♔haracter named Yarnby, who will try to hunt you.ꦚ Your immediate job will be to reach Safe Haven and then eliminate Yarnby before you can take on the Doctor. The main problem with this task will be the leaking gas that can freeze and kill you.

  • After eliminating Yarnby, Doey will brief you about Frozen Pipes.
  • Once you enter the next room after surviving Yarnby, you’ll find multiple leaking pipes. The gas can hurt you if you get too close.
  • Interact with the slider on the pipe to close it down. Then shoot your glove through the gas, and you’ll be able to turn the valve of the second pipe.
  • Continue along the path, and you’ll find yourself in a strange room with another trap.
  • Open the compartment marked ‘2’, and you’ll find a Battery.
  • Pick the Battery up with your right glove and place it behind the Saw machine. Doing so will start the machine.
  • Pull the Saw to the other side to cut the attached Blue Glove.
  • Pick the Blue Glove and take it to the Temperature Control area. Put it on the scanner, which will stop the gas and open the door.

That’s how you can save yourself from the Frozen Gas Trap in Poppy Playtime: Chapter 4.
