How to unlock the Finding the Garden of Eden achievement in Fallout 3 - Definitive Guide

A Pretty simple achievement that's hard to miss because it's part of the main storyline. Just continue through the story until you reach this part in the game, and it will unlock once you complete this mission. It is right after the quest "Picking Up The Trail".

- Enter Vault 87
- Find a G.E.C.K.
- Escape Vault 87

The map found on your pip boy is very useful if you find yourself in need of directions. Just follow the flashing quest marker.

This will help you a lot if at any point you get lost or need help:

In addition, if at ANY point you find the game too hard, you can change the difficulty of the game to something easier and it will NOT affect the achievement. (Or any achievements)

Small note, if you kill Fawkes you can search him and get the "Fawkes' Super Sledge" weapon. Better than stand SS, the most powerful melee weapon I'v found. DAM 25 WG18 VAL196 (CND approx 80%)

Whichever way you chose to finish Picking Up the Trail, you will enter the vault in the same spot. Proceed through the vault until you get to the Test Labs to find an intelligent super mutant named Fawkes. You can either set off the fire alarm to free Fawkes who will help you fight and retreive the G.E.C.K. from the highly irradiated section of the vault, or attemt to brave the radiation and get the G.E.C.K. yourself. Either way, once you attempt to leave the vault with the G.E.C.K., you will be knocked out, ending the quest.

Once inside Vault 87 you need to find and retrieve the G.E.C.K from the Test Labs on the top level of the Vault which will not be easy. This is because there are Super Mutants everywhere and a few Centaurs as well so make sure you have plenty of ammo and your armour and weapons are in good condition.

There is a big problem with getting the G.E.C.K as the room it's stored in is flooded with lethal levels of radiation that will kill you in seconds. You have two choices on how to retrieve the G.E.C.K:

  1. Release Fawkes the friendly Super Mutant from his cell and have him retrieve the G.E.C.K and give it to you.
  2. Hack the terminal in the room Fawkes directs you to and unlock the Storage Room, go to the Storage room (which is near the G.E.C.K) then take and equip the Advanced radiation Suit. After equipping the Advanced radiation Suit, go to the G.E.C.K room and take plenty of Rad-X and Rad-Away.


It's best to release Fawkes and let him retrieve it because he's virtually invincible and will join you after the next Quest providing you have Good Karma. To release Fawkes you need to access the terminal he mentions then open Isolation Room 5 (and only that room else you'll be swarmed by enemies). After retrieving the G.E.C.K, make your way out of the Vault and the trophy will pop after the ensuing cutscenes when the interrogation by Colonel Autumn is over and President Eden lets you out of your cell.

To start the quest, just enter Vault 87 - either by hacking the terminal at the door connecting the Vault with Little Lamplight, or by going through the caves inhabited by super mutants. Both entrances lead to the same place - the Vault Reactor Chamber. When you take out the “GECK”, an electric explosion will occur at the exit from the Vault, similar to the explosion of a pulse grenade! You will be greeted by Colonel Autumn with two soldiers as you lie on the floor. When you are already unconscious, he will take you to Raven Rock, the Enclave bunker and the quest will end.
