Disco Elysium: Inspect the traps - walkthrough Disco Elysium guide, walkthrough

Finding 4 traps on the coast is the Check Traps task that Morell commissions in the game Disco Elysium. On this page of the guide you'll find a walkthrough, in which we suggest where the traps are hidden and how to complete the task for the cryptozoologist.

Last update: 06 August 2024

Inspect the traps is a side quest in Disco Elysium received from Cryptozoologist Morell. Our guide describes the locations of all 4 traps, where to look for Morell after the job is done, and what rewards are there for examining the traps found all across the western part of the map.

Unlocking the task

The quest in question is given by Morell - you'll be tasked with finding him during a separate Find Morell, the Cryptozoologist task - Disco Elysium: Inspect the traps - walkthrough - Cryptozoologists - Disco Elysium Guide

The quest in question is given by Morell - you'll be tasked with finding him during a separate Find Morell, the Cryptozoologist task. As a reminder, he is found squatting in the north-western part of the map which is accessible starting from day 3.

During the conversation with Morell, you'll learn about traps laid by him. You can offer to help with inspecting the traps - this will make Morell and accompanying him Gary leave the area and travel back to Whirling-in-Rags (they will reach their destination only after you've inspected all of the traps).

Reporting back in Whirling-in-Rags

With all traps examined, you can go back to the hotel - in the cafeteria on the ground floor, you should encounter Morell, Gary, and Lena (the woman in a wheelchair who sent you to find Morell).

Talk to Lena first. As a reward for finding and bringing her husband back, you'll receive from Lena an Eight-Eyed Teratorn Tie (equipping it provides +1 to Inland Empire and Volition).

Now talk to Morell, who is by the bar right next to Lena - Disco Elysium: Inspect the traps - walkthrough - Cryptozoologists - Disco Elysium Guide

Now talk to Morell, who is by the bar right next to Lena. Delivering the report is rewarded with 15XP.
