Quick Links
Navigating the maps inRepocan sometimes be difficult when monsters are stalking you from every corner and you just want to extract and make it out alive. The game gives you a handy-dandy little map viewer that definitely helps, but even then you might feel lost at times.
It also doesn’t help that the layout of the maps changes every time a new level loads. This can make learning the maps much more challenging and frustrating. The goal of this guide is to help you learn what to expect when you’re on each map, from the types of valuables you’ll find, to how best to find extraction points.
What Are The Maps In Repo?
There arecurrently three mapsthat the Taxman will take you to, and the map that you end up on is randomly generated. You don’t get to choose which map you go to, so it’s a good idea to learn as much about all three of them as you can.
If you’re trying to go to a specific map, or trying to avoid one,you can keep reloading the leveluntil you get the map you want (or don’t want). This can be somewhat tedious, but it’s a way to use the map randomizing to your advantage.
Thethree maps in Repoinclude:
Shared Features Of All Maps
While the three different maps each havetheir own individual features and characteristics, there are a few things that are shared across all three.
Hiding Places
Every map will have hiding places likecupboards, tables, chairs, lockers, and beds. These spots can be used to hide from most monsters to either avoid being seen, heard, or attacked.
A few monsterscan crouch or turn to reach you, though, so try to pay attention to where you’re hiding and what monsters you’re trying to get away from.
Valuables
Many of the small and medium (and a few large) items you’ll find will appear on any of the maps. Theprices of these general valuables range from $500 to $15,000.
These items include:
Some items, no matter the cost,are more durable than others. For example, a crystal plate, which is usually worth about $1,700,will shatter before a $500 cash bundle breaks.
You can use the more durable items as weapons against some of the weaker monsters, like Chef or Shadow Child. If you’re on a map with a large pit and a monster standing next to the pit,you can use the items to knock them over into the pit.
The Clown Toy Bomb can either be used to just hit a monster, or you candetonate it to explode. When it goes off, it will deal 300 damage to whatever monster is near and can kill most of the monsters.
Extraction Points
The best way to find extraction points is to follow the perimeter of the map. Extraction pointswill never be found in the center of a map, always on the outer edges.
If you’re on a level with only two extraction points, the second one will be at thefurthest point from the truck.
The number of extractions you have to clear on a mapalways follows the same pattern, no matter which map you’re on.
Level 6 and up
4 Extractions
Monster Spawns
Usually, the first level will only give you one small monster and either one medium or one large monster. Sometimes youmight get duplicates of a medium or large monster.
However,there’s no set pattern for how many monsters, or which monsters, spawn per level; it’s all randomly generated. Every time you play, you’re at the mercy of the random number generator.
Headman Manor
Of the three available maps, Headman Manor is, by far, the creepiest. This was thefirst one ever designed by the developers, back when the game was originally meant to be a single-player horror game. It’s named for the Headman monster, as the house originally belonged to him.
A fun easter egg to look for on this map can be found in the cemetery, if it spawns. On one of the headstones,you can find the Headman’s face. So not only is this his house, but he’s buried here, making the Headman monster a ghost.
Headman Manor is designed withnarrow maze-like hallways, small rooms with multiple connecting doors, and the lighting is dark and spooky.
You’ll even find rooms and hallways filled with hanging cobwebs, but thankfully, no spiders in sight.
As you enter the higher levels, usually starting at level five or six,you’ll find rooms with bottomless pits. Some of these pits will be as large as the room they’re in.
Many of the valuables you’ll find on this map will be thingsyou might find lying around a mansion in the ’80s. Along with the general items, you might find a piano, painting, or music box. A few of theseare interactive when you pick them up, so learn how to deal with each one to maximize your income.
Cost
Music Box
When you find this item, it’s closed. But as soon as you pick it up, it pops open, and the two figures dance in a circle. As they turn, the box forces you to turn as well. You can either just go with it and try not to hit anything, or keep turning your camera to the left to try to counteract the effect.
$2,993 - $3,700
Ship In A Bottle
A simple glass bottle with a ship inside. Nothing special about this item.
$3,500 - $4,000
Possessed Doll
This item acts just as scary as it looks. When you pick it up, this doll screams and thrashes around. If it gets to close to you, it will stun you, making you drop it. This can damage both you and the doll. The best way to carry it is to hold it as far away from you as you’re able to constantly until you can either drop it in the cart or at the extraction point.
$5,700 - $7,200
Radio
There is a chance that this old-fashioned radio will turn on and play some music while you’re holding it.
TV
This older style of television can be carried by one person, but two (or one person with a strength upgrade) is even better. Like the radio, the longer you carry it the more chance it has to turn on and play a short program or one character chasing another while saying “I’m gonna get you!” over and over again.
$6,751
Gramophone
Much like the two previous items, this can turn on the longer you hold it. This is also a great item to hit monsters with as it’s very durable.
$2,100 - $2,900
Rhino Statue In Glass
This guy is large but light enough for someone without any strength upgrades to pick up. He doesn’t do anything, though, but he is worth a lot of money.
$3,000 - $4,400
Harp
It’s best to pick this item up by the base or the sides, not the strings. If you pick it up by the strings it’ll make noise, which could alert any monsters nearby.
$19,400 - $23,800
Painting
This is a large portrait painting that you might find in levels three and up. It’s a larger version of mainy portraits you find around the manor. Could it be of the Headman before he died?
$19,700 - $20,869
Grandfather Clock
Like most Grandfather Clocks, this item is very tall, and will need to be lifted by someone with a couple of strength upgrades, or by at least two people. If you hold onto the clock part a little too long, the clock will start to chime.
$18,000 - $24,500
Gold Statue
This large gold statue stands at attention. He’s not as heavy as the piano, but is slightly heavier than the painting.
$19,000 - $23,000
Dinosaur Skeleton
Although he looks mighty, the dinosaur skeleton valuable is very fragile. Carry with caution, or use a drone.
$22,000 - $25,000
Piano
This is the largest, and heaviest, item on the map, and is the hardest to move. This is best moved with multiple people who have strength upgrades, or with a feather drone. You’ll also want to use an indestructible drone, if you have one, so it doesn’t lose any value on the way to extraction.
$43,400 - $44,800
Mcjannek Station
Mcjannek Station is anArctic Research Stationout in the middle of a snow-covered landscape. It has, unfortunately, been abandoned by the research team (or are they dead?),replaced only by the monsters.
Here you’ll findlarge corridors, computer stations, storage rooms filled with supplies, and break rooms with vending machines. There are, of course, bathrooms scattered around, because, of course, research workers can’t just go outside in the snow and frigid temps to relieve themselves.
In higher levels, you’ll encounter large pools of water,extraction rooms with a single-plank walkway, and a room with only narrow winding vents to walk on.
There’s one room that looks like it’sblended with a room from Headman Manor. Amidst the snow coming through the cracks, there’s a bed, bookcase, and cupboard just like what you’d find at the Manor.Could they be connected somehow?
Bonsai Tree
Not sure what a bonsai tree has to do with an arctic research station, but it’s here. Perhaps the crew was Chinese or Japanese?
$900 - $1,100
Hard Drive
This might look like a VHS tape, but it’s actually a computer hard drive.
$2,000 - $3,000
Laptop
On the screen of this laptop you’ll see images that look a lot like the skeleton and creature fossilized that you may also find on this map.
Fan
Don’t try to pick this item up with the fan blades facing you. It’ll blow you down, forcing you to let go of the fan. Make sure you pick it up with the fan facing away from you. Just don’t point it at a friend, unless you want to mess with them.
Radioactive Cylinder
This cylinder is filled with some type of radioactive fluid, but luckily it doesn’t hurt you if it breaks.
Test Tube
No one knows what they would use this test tube for at the research station, but you can sometimes find one or two around the map.
Cylinder 6-pack
$2,700 - $3,500
Radioactive Case
This item looks like a cooler for biohazard materials, but we’re not sure what is actually inside of it. It can be a little heavy, but can fit snuggly in the loot cart.
$4,000 - $5,000
Circular Ice Saw
Be careful when you pick this up, because as soon as you do, it turns on and the saw blade turns. you’re able to use this item as a weapon against many of the monsters, though, just make sure some of the tougher monsters are stunned first.
$4,300 - $4,500
Propane Tank
Another item that can be used against monsters. First, you’ll want to make sure the nozzle is pointing away from you. Then, while holding it, hit it against the ground or the wall to make fire come out of the nozzle. Then aim that at a monster to damage or kill them.
$3,600 - $5,000
Flamethrower Cart
Just like the propane tank, this item can deal fire damage to monsters. It’s a little heavier than the propane tank, though. Also, don’t pick it up by the nozzle unless you intend to use it against something.
$3,000 - $5,000
Red Explosive Barrel
This is harmless unless it gets damaged enough, and then it’ll explode, hurting anything and anyone nearby.
$10,100 - $12,000
Small Fossilized Creature
One of the creatures you saw on the laptop screen is fossilized in this.
$11,300 - $13,000
Large Fossilized Skeleton
Who was this person and how did his skeleton become fossilized in ice at the research station?
$12,000 - $15,000
Large Computer Station
One of the more expensive items on this map. Like the laptop, the screen has images of one of the fossilized creatures. Someone with at least two strength upgrades should be able to move this with ease.
$17,610 - $2,100
Computer Tower
The most expensive item at Mcjannek Station. This will require a lot of strength upgrades and a lot of patience while maneuvering it to extraction. Once you get it to the extraction point, you’ll need to stand it up for it to fit.
$25,000 - $30,000
Swiftbroom Academy
Straight out of something from Hogwarts, Swiftbroom Academy is a place where once upon a time young wizards were trained.No one knows what happened to the staff or students, but all that remains are monsters and valuables.
Here you’ll findlecture halls, dormitories, classrooms, and even a dungeon. Adorning the walls are portraits of wizards, which could likely be the faculty of the school. There are alsowizard robes hanging in just about every room, and cauldrons filled with boiling acid that you can use to launch yourself into the air (or kill a duck with).
Higher levels will create rooms with several floors, large acid pits, andlava pits with narrow precarious walkways or staircases. As with the other two maps, the higher you get in levels,the more dangerous the map gets.
There are many magical valuables around this map that you would only find in a school for wizards, like a love potion, large wand, and a flying broom.
Love Potion
This item is a lot of fun when you find it while playing multiplayer. When you pick it up, it’ll make you type out in the robot voice something nice about whichever teammate you’re looking at. If you’re not looking at anyone, you’ll instead say something nice about the potion.
$1,000 - $2,200
Locked
Mimic Book
This book is harmless as long as the lock remains intact. If it’s broken in any way, the book turns into a mimic and will start attacking you.
$2,484 - $4,000
Hourglass
The hourglass is another fun one. When you pick it up, time around you slows down, and it takes longer for you to carry it to your destination. While you’re carrying it, if you speak, your voice will sound low and slowed down to your teammates.
$5,600 - $6,300
Arcane Cube
You would think this cube does something with all the arcane etchings around it, but it’s just a cube. However, it is a lot heavier than it looks. But moving it by pushing with your body is a great way if you don’t have any strength upgrades.
$9,600 - $10,629
Large Potion Bottle
Despite its size, this bottle is rather lightweight and not as fragile as the large vase you find on all the maps. And it makes soft “ding” sounds when it lightly hits the ground or walls.
$4,200 - $6,000
Magic Laser Wand
This wand is temperamental and will take out you, your entire team, and all of your loot if not treated with the utmost care while transporting. If you pick it up by the crystal, or hit the wand on anything, it’ll shoot a destructive laser beam, much like the Clown’s laser.
$21,200
Large Sword
This large sword is usually worth a good chunk of money and worth extracting. It does nothing, but it can be a little awkward to carry.
$11,000 - $13,000
Speed Demon Broom
The best broom for any aspiring wizard. It does nothing as long as the box remains intact. But if the box breaks, and you let go of the broom, it will fly away. If you’re able to hold onto the broom after the box breaks, you’ll need to hold it in the extraction point to extract it.
$11,000 - $12,000
Gryphon Statue
And finally, we have the large golden gryphon statue. He’s large, and he’s very heavy, but beyond that he does nothing. However, he is worth a lot of money, so your best bet is to have a lot of strength and an indestructible drone.
$34,800 - $40,000
