Introduction
WARNING! Contains heavy spoilers.

Welcome to my Guide. Here I will explain Step by Step on how to get the three nessecary Items to achive the Happy ending. With Pictures!!! Have Fun :D

Also, when I say "be friendly to x and y faction" I mean this kind of Event:



NEVER, under ANY circumstances, choose the "Declare war on [faction]" option. Otherwise you won't get the nessecary things to get the happy end. You can refuse, you can stall, or even say that you need peace.

Now this is where things get a little bit tricky

Requirements
  • Town is not Abbotsfort or Vancouver
  • Unscavenged and unreclaimed Motel
  • Unscavenged and unreclaimed Mall
  • Reclaimed 8/12 Mart & Luck OR Cricket Bat
  • Expendable Survivor
  • "Signpost" reseached
  • Space for one Survivor


The Pre-events
You should complete the pre-events in this order (sorted from the hardest to do on demand to the easiest). First, do the "Schmooze got Book", then (if you're ready to do "Cricket Trade" and "Mall Pet Store") do the "Mob Newspaper" then the other two.
  • Schmooze got Book
    • Have 5+ Schools in your Fort
    • Meet with other non-allied factions until they want to give you books
    • Choose the Fiction Book
  • Mob Newspaper
    • you need a Zombie Mob that's at least 2 tiles from your Fort away
    • You'll have to guess what path the Zombie Mob is going to walk
    • Send a Group of Survivors between your fort and the mob (on the path where the zombie mob is walking. Save and just let them walk so you see their path, then load and place your group), one of them must be an Engineer
    • Just sending Soldiers with engineer Skills or yourself won't work. The Engineer must have Engineering as the active Skill
  • Cricket Trade
    • Trade with Gustav
    • The Trade must include your Cricket Bat
  • Mall Pet Store
    • Scavenge the Mall with a 10+ Scavenger
    • The Scavenger will finish too early; choose to visit the Pet Store.

The Events
  • Event 1: Origin Join
    • Requirements: 2 of 4 Pre-events triggered, Signs researched, space for 1 Survivor, 4 days
    • Gretchen Van Nooten will join you
  • Event 2: Origin Infect
    • Requirements: 4 Pre-events triggered, Injured Survivor, 14 days
    • Gretchen Van Nooten checks the injured Survivor and infects him unintentionally
    • The Injured Survivor should die
  • Event 3: Origin Leave
    • Requirements: Gretchen Van Nooten alive and healthy
    • Gretchen Van Nooten will attack a random Survivor
    • She will leave your Fort (you can pass a Leader Skill check of 7 to make her stay a little longer, but she will still leave)
After that you can scavenge the Motel, then the Hospital, then the School and you'll recieve the Monkey Blood.

The one I spawned in does
Not
Have a motel. Will my progress in the quest carry on into the next city or should I just restart? Also, there is a hospital but it isn’t unclaimed. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated

I haven't completed this yet but I've noticed that you can get the newspaper event both with a zombie mob and roamers. It has only triggered when I've been attacked, not when they pass by.

YES! FINALLY GOT IT! Thank you.

My favourite song in fact.

After Gretchen attacks someone the text says ''Maybe some people are better off alone''. Heh heh of course there'd be an Alice Deejay (Dutch Eurodance act) reference.

written in 3 parts because steam doesnt like long form cooments.

imagine my absolute crushing disappointment when, after having all the research, data dump, monkey blood, gretchen... all the c-r-a-p, only to get to vancouver and discover that I am getting zombified, getting the zombie voiceovers on actions and the jumpscares.
Ofcourse having the conversation with the government confirmed my fears.

0/10 highly unreliable and the sheer amount of dumb work needed to achieve something that obviously 99% of people wont get, or wont even know exists...with out a guide.

even then...it will most probably fail.

Before I say anything, I would like to point to the fact I actually got the GOOD ending the first time I played Rebuild 3, completely oblivious as to what I am actually achieving and 100% blind to the absolute atrocity that IS getting this Good ending.

This was like 2016 or 2015, I am not sure.


I spun it up again a week ago and tried to go for it again.
Reading the actual guide for it, I have to say I am irrevocably disappointed.
More because I followed the guide to it the absolute letter, restarting or even resetting citties until I got the preferable start, just for the sake of getting the good ending on purpose.

For monkey blood, you don't need an unreclaimed and unscavenged motel, you just need to finish a mission in this building. Even a trade or meeting mission in another faction territory works for triggering the search for Gretchen.

The 8/12 Mart gives you a new option with one random event, where some visitors come to the fort looking for Ice-cream. If you select the option that needs the 8/12 Mart, you get a Cricket bat.
