As you transition into Act 2 of the game, the stakes for Kovalsky rise significantly. The crime scene cleaner amber alert mission serves as the introductory challenge for this chapter, throwing you into a sprawling multi-level complex owned by a man named Dave. This mission is a massive step up in scale, featuring a high body count and intricate environmental puzzles that require a keen eye for detail. To achieve a perfect score in the crime scene cleaner amber alert level, you must dispose of 12 bodies, collect 16 pieces of evidence, and uncover several hidden rooms that expand the dark narrative of the mobster's daughter, Amber.
This guide provides a comprehensive breakdown of every objective, secret collectible, and furniture placement required to leave the scene spotless. Follow these steps to ensure you don't leave a single drop of blood or a stray bullet casing behind.
Mission Overview and Objectives
The Amber Alert mission is set in a combined bar, boxing gym, and private lounge facility. It is classified as a Size 4 location, meaning you will need to manage your inventory and water refills carefully across several distinct zones.
| Objective Category | Total Requirement | Key Locations |
|---|---|---|
| Bodies to Dispose | 12 | Staff Area, Bar, Boxing Ring, Lounges |
| Evidence Collected | 16 | Office Safe, Maintenance Room, Bar, Ring |
| Furniture to Reset | 60+ | Entire Facility |
| Secrets to Find | 4 | Staff Area, Bar, Lounges, Boxing Ring |
💡 Tip: Always prioritize clearing bodies and large trash first. This prevents you from accidentally tracking blood into areas you have already mopped clean.
Step-by-Step Area Walkthrough
1. The Entrance and Staff Area
When you arrive, the main glass doors are locked. Head through the side door into the Staff Area. You will find your first body on the stairs here. Before moving up to the kitchen, ensure you check the lockers for valuable rings and necklaces.
In the kitchen, you will find a bucket refill point. This area also houses the first major secret.
Secret 1: The Beer Barrel Puzzle In the kitchen alcove, there is a small elevator. Take the barrel labeled Elder Gnome Stout down with you. You must arrange the barrels against the wall pipes to match the draft taps found in the bar upstairs.
| Position | Barrel Label | Reward |
|---|---|---|
| Left | Elder Gnome Stout | Cassette: Garbage Truck Lullaby |
| Middle-Left | Monastern Trappist | Access to Secret Room |
| Middle-Right | Iced Dwarf Pale Ale | — |
| Right | Iced Dwarf Pilsner | — |
2. The Bar and the VIP Card
The Bar area is massive and contains 32 pieces of furniture that must be returned to their original positions. Be careful with the glass partitions; if they break, they create additional trash.
- Finding the VIP Card: Go to the second floor of the bar. Underneath or near Body #4, you will find the VIP Keycard. This is essential for accessing the Boxing Ring and the main Entrance doors.
- Evidence Note: Look for shurikens embedded in a body near the pool table and a cocktail shaker behind the bar counter.
3. The Office and Safe Code
The Office is located adjacent to the bar's upper level. The door is damaged, so you will need to force your way in.
- Safe Code: Look under the main desk. The code 1369 is written on the underside.
- Safe Contents: Inside the safe, you will find the "Fixed Fights" document (Evidence) and several bundles of cash.
- Optional Task: Interact with the laptop to delete incriminating emails for a completion bonus.
Unlocking the Boxing Ring and Maintenance Room
The Boxing Ring is the centerpiece of the mission, but it is initially enclosed in a metal cage. To clean the interior and retrieve the bodies inside, you must reach the Maintenance Room.
- Accessing Maintenance: Go to the Lounges level and look for a door with a snake skeleton icon.
- The Cage Controls: Inside the Maintenance Room, interact with the wall panel to lower the boxing ring cage.
- Evidence in the Ring: Once lowered, you can collect the Katana and Knuckle Dusters evidence, and dispose of the boxer's body.
⚠️ Warning: One of the chairs required for the Bar area is actually inside the Boxing Ring. Many players miss this and get stuck at 99% furniture completion.
Hidden Secrets and Collectibles
To achieve a 100% rating in the crime scene cleaner amber alert mission, you must find all four secret areas. These often contain unique skins or music cassettes.
Secret 2: Dave's Lair (The Sewers)
In the Bar area, locate the dartboard. You must interact with it and score exactly 301 points. This opens a secret passage behind the wall leading to the sewers.
- Reward: The Turtle Bucket skin (a reference to the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles).
Secret 3: The Painting Room
In the corridor leading to the Maintenance Room, there is a large painting at the end of a hall decorated with stone ruins. You can actually walk directly through this painting.
- Reward: Three valuable cat statues and Cassette: Lulu Suicide – Bye.
Secret 4: The Karaoke Room
In the Maintenance Room area, look under the stairs to find a stone Greek head statue. Carry this head back to the Boxing Ring area and place it on the empty pedestal near the winner's locker room.
- Reward: Cassette: Akinohara – Matiku and several high-value drug stashes.
| Secret Number | Location | Requirement | Reward |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Kitchen | Barrel Alignment | D.A.D.S. Cassette |
| 2 | Bar | Score 301 on Darts | Turtle Bucket Skin |
| 3 | Maintenance Hall | Walk through Painting | Lulu Suicide Cassette |
| 4 | Boxing Ring | Place Statue Head | Akinohara Cassette |
Pro-Tips for Perfect Cleaning
- The Vent Stool: There is a stool often found on top of the overhead ventilation ducts in the bar. Use your power washer's spray to knock it down so you can place it correctly.
- The "Hand of Justice": Use your UV light frequently in the Lounges. The red lighting in the private booths makes it very difficult to see blood splatters on the velvet curtains.
- Evidence Check: If you are missing one piece of evidence, check the glass exit door in the private lounge. There is a Sai jammed into the door frame that is easy to overlook.
- Trash Management: Because this level is so large, use the trash bags frequently. Leaving loose trash on the floor increases the risk of tripping and spilling your bucket.
