The Quarry: Chapter 1 – All Choices & Paths

In the 1st Chapter of the Quarry, the game will briefly introduce all the characters and their relationships with each other to the players. Players will have to play through different characters in the 1st chapter and make the story for the characters while making choices in the paths that they would choose.

In this guide, we’ll go through all the Choices & the paths that you can choose in the 1st chapter.

All Choices & Paths

The game will introduce 8 different characters in this chapter. Jacob, Kaitlyn, Dylan, Nick, Emma, Abi, Ryan, and Chris Hackett. The players will start off with the Jacob character and the first choice that you have to make is with the Jacob. Kaitlyn will make comments on Jacob and Emma’s breakup, now the players have to choose from two options on the screen, Cynical and Reflective.

Cynical

Jacob will say that the kids will get over it and then Kaitlyn will turn that comment about Emma.

Reflective

Jacob will say that the kids’ relationships could last far beyond summer camp and then Kaitlyn will turn that comment about Emma.

After the first choice, Kaitlyn will tell Jacob to go and grab a couple of bags. Jacob will go ask other characters and they will refuse to help him get the bags to the car. Jacob will have to get the bags all by himself and bring them to the car. After getting the bags, Emma will ask Jacob to be honest about Emma and here we’ll get two more options on the screen to choose from, Defensive and Playful.

Defensive

Jacob will get angry at Kaitlyn for her comments on their breakup which will frustrate Kaitlyn and she’ll make more comments about Emma and the conversation will continue about Emma.

Playful

Jacob will bring up Ryan, converting the conversation against Kaitlyn. Then the conversation continues about Kaitlyn and Ryan. Kaitlyn has a crush on Ryan.

After completing the choices from the options, Jacob will ask Kaitlyn about the car engine and he’ll get an idea of making the car bust so, the whole counselors’ group can stay one more night at the Hackett’s Quarry. We’ll get two more options on the screen and this time the choice we make will impact the story so, it’ll be a path-choosing choice.

Break Fuel Line

Jacob will break the fuel line and claim that he’ll attach it back in the morning.

Steal Rotor Arm

Jacob will steal the rotor arm and claim that he’ll put it back tomorrow.

After busting the car, Dylan & Nick will come out of the lodge and Nick will throw Jacob’s phone at him, this’ll trigger the QTE, press the up cursor key button to catch the phone. Nick & Dylan will come down and Dylan will make fun of Jacob for breaking up with Emma, this’ll get two more options on the screen,

Jacob will react normally and say to Dylan that at least he got to date someone this summer.

Annoyed

Jacob will get angry and tell Dylan to back off. Dylan will apologize.

After a few dialogues, the cutscene will switch to Abi. She’ll be drawing and Emma would come to her and a QTE will trigger in order to high-five Emma. Press the up cursor key button key to high-five Emma. Emma has come to take the bags from the cabins and Abi will tell her that the Cabins are locked and the bags are inside. We’ll get Path-Choosing options here,

Break-In

If you choose the Break-in option, Abi will check around in the Cabin and around the area. After checking everywhere in the area, Abi will go to Emma and they will get on the golf cart to return to the lodge. On the way, a QTE will trigger in which Abi will have to turn the cart to the right side, and press the right button cursor key to turn the cart. After that, there’ll be two paths and here we have to make a choice of getting straight to the lodge or taking a detour around a lake.

Return to Lodge

Abi will make a left and drive straight to the lodge.

Take Scenic Route

Abi will turn right and take a detour of the lake and then go to the lodge.

If you choose the return to lodge option then there’ll be another QTE in which a squirrel will come in front of the cart, press the right cursor key button to dodge the squirrel. If you fail in turning the cart, Abi will hit the squirrel and Emma will hand a big rock to Abi to put the squirrel out of the misery. You’ll get two options here,

Kill the Squirrel

Abi will grab the rock and throw it at the squirrel.

Return to Cart

Abi will get back to the cart and Emma will throw the rock at the squirrel.

If you choose the Scenic Route option, Emma will talk about her social media and how her subscribers are loyal to her. We’ll get two options here,

Abi will be sarcastic about the social media of Emma.

Supportive

Abi would be supportive and tells Emma that she gets why you are famous on social media and that she would be a subscriber as well.

Abi and Emma would return to the lodge and if you have chosen to leave the bags option, Emma would tell them that their bags are still in the Cabins. If you have chosen the Break-in option, Emma would put her bag inside the van by herself. Kaitlyn will ask about Ryan and Dylan will make fun of him. Ryan will come out and would tell us that he was listening to a Podcast. Jacob will ask Ryan what was the podcast about and the two options will appear on the screen for Dylan.

Protective

Jacob will say “Cool Story Bro.” Two options will appear on the screen for Dylan.

Defensive

Dylan will tell Jacob to be not sarcastic and say that this is the best thing that Ryan ever told.

Supportive

Dylan will say that the children were so interested in this story and they loved it when Ryan told them.

After the dialogues, Chris Hackett will come on the Broadwalk and the group will ask him for the keys to the van. He’d not have the keys on him so, he’d ask Ryan to come to his office with him. They’ll go to the office and the telephone of Chris Hackett will ring and he’d tell Ryan to go outside the room. While waiting outside, two options will appear on the screen.

Listen to Podcast

Ryan will continue to listen to the podcast.

Eavesdrop

Ryan gets close to the door and listens to Chris chat through the door. Chris catches Ryan while he is eavesdropping on him and let him inside his office.

Concerned

Ryan will ask Chris if he is okay and they talk calmly about Ryan scaring the kids with ghost stories.

Ryan will get angry at Chris for not listening to him and he’d tell him that it is difficult to run a summer camp when all the kids are terrified by the ghost stories.

Ryan can respond with two options,

Apologetic

Ryan will apologize to Chris for scaring the kids.

Indifferent

Ryan will tell Chris that it was just a funny thing that he heard and he would calm it down the next summer.

After that, Chris will start to insist that he needs to get Counsellors out of the camp by the nightfall. Ryan can respond with two options,

Inquisitive

Ryan will ask Chris why he is so concerned and Chris would excuse him for driving.

Understanding

Ryan agrees with Chris and doesn’t ask much.

Chris will find the keys and they both return to the lodge. Now the decision that you made with busting the car will result in. If you have chosen Broken Fuel Line then the whole car will catch on fire. If you have chosen the Steal Rotor Arm, the car will not start. On this, Chris would tell all the counselors to spend the night in the lodge and lock all the doors and not come out until the morning. He’ll ask Ryan to promise him that he’d listen to him. This would give us two options.

Compliant

Ryan will agree to Chris’s terms and make sure that all the other counselors will stay in the lodge.

After that, Dylan disagrees with Chris’s terms as soon as he leaves and suggests to the whole group that we shouldn’t spend our last night of camp in the lodge.

Insistent

Ryan would insist that the group should follow Chris’s instructions.

After that, Dylan will throw a party on the beach and all of the counselors will go on the beach except Abi.

Apprehensive

Supportive

Ryan thought that Chris was just being protective. Ryan can then decide to join the party or just stay inside the lodge.
