In Pursuit of the Purloined Propaganda Quest Walkthrough
All Science Adventures Quarterly locations are listed below in order of issue number, along with the best nearby fast travel points. This may not be the optimal path for natural questing, but it works well if you’re aiming to collect them all directly. No special traits or skills are needed to access any of these.
Science Adventures Quarterly Location 1 (Westport)
You’ll find issue 1 in a house outside of Westport. Fast travel to Westport and follow the road in front of the house. The magazine is on a bed. Be careful—there are high-level enemies here, especially on Very Hard difficulty.
Science Adventures Quarterly Location 2 (Crabble Farm)
Science Adventures Quarterly Issue 2 is on a table outside a fishing shack in the southernmost part of the map. From the Crabble Farm fast travel point, head southwest to the shack. The magazine is next to a lamp on the front porch. To enter the house, follow the power lines to activate the station. Note: if you haven’t already, make sure to get the game’s first pet at the Crabble Farm!
Science Adventures Quarterly Location 3 (Ministry of Accuracy)
Issue 3 is in a building just north of the Ministry of Accuracy. Fast travel there, then head to the adjacent building. The magazine is on a table left of a broken door.
Science Adventures Quarterly Location 4 (Vox Relay)
Issue 4 is near a fishing shack along the coast. From the Vox Relay fast travel point, take the right-hand entrance with yellow restricted lines, ride the elevator down, and follow the path to the dock. The magazine is on a table between a chair and a standing lamp.
Science Adventures Quarterly Location 5 (Ministry of Accuracy)
Issue 5 is on a table in the middle of three buildings east of the Ministry of Accuracy. Fast travel there, then head to the trio of buildings and check the one with green folders on the table.
Science Adventures Quarterly Location 6 (Fairfield)
Issue 6 is inside a fishing shack east of Fairfield. Fast travel to Fairfield, then head east to the coastal building. The magazine is on a bed, and there’s also an Advanced Data Decryption Key on a nearby table.
Science Adventures Quarterly Location 7 (Vox Relay)
Science Adventures Quarterly Issue 7 is in a building west of the Vox Relay Station. Use the Vox Relay fast travel point and head west. The area has many enemies, so sneak or fight your way through. The magazine is on a table inside.
Science Adventures Quarterly Location 8 (Crabbing Tower)
Issue 8 is atop the tower at Crabbing Tower. Use that fast travel point or approach from the Ministry of Accuracy or Sovereign’s Sweet Spire Grove. Climb the ladder on the back of the main building to reach the table with the magazine.

Issue 9 is in a house south of this fast travel point. Go through the grove and follow the path between the mountains. Use the side door to enter and be prepared to fight baby and adult Raptidons. The magazine is on a bed inside.
Science Adventures Quarterly Location 10 (Raptidon Den)
Science Adventures Quarterly Issue 10 is on a table outside a fishing shack near the Raptidon Den fast travel point. This is the same location you’ll need to travel for Inez’s Graft quest.
