"Need to get power to this gate somehow. There should be a couple switches nearby, then maybe I can open it."
Henry's line about the toggle - switches, Bendy and the Ink Machine: Chapter 2

Switches are electrical and mechanical operators in the Bendy series.

Description[]

In Bendy and the Ink Machine, there are four main types of switches from throughout the chapters:

  • Lever - Used for activating power within the studio, such as for the Ink Machine and electricity. There is an alternate version of it, only seen during Chapter 2 to open a gate.
  • Valve - Valves are located commonly around pipes, used for draining or filling ink. They are operated by turning valve wheels.
  • Toggle switch - Only seen in Chapter 2, several toggle switches are used for powering the lever up for opening the entrance to the Music Department.
  • Handle Switch - Used for certain locations such as the exit door of the safehouse and for moving the shelves of the toy machine room.


In Bendy and the Dark Revival, there are 3 types of switches, in real life and in the cycle.

  • Ink Machine Switch - It only at the beginning of the game and the very end. After placing all items on the pedestals, Audrey must pull the lever in order to turn on the ink machine. Wilson then traps her in the room and brings her into the cycle. It reappears again at the very end so Audrey can summon Shipahoy Wilson.
  • Gent Lock - Using an upgraded gent pipe, you can open metallic doors and can turn off signal towers when using the Gent Lock.
  • Handle Switch - The handle switch acts similar to the one seen in Bendy and the Ink Machine, except there is now more of an actual animation for it and instead of going straight down it now flips down. In two instances in the game, it will be unusable instead going halfway down and shooting out sparks. When it can be used, it can open gates and doors.

Gameplay[]

Bendy and the Ink Machine[]

Chapter 1: Moving Pictures[]

One handle switch powered by two dry cells is used in the Ink Machine loading dock to raise the Ink Machine.

There is only one lever located at the end of the break room. Henry can only pull the lever to activate the Ink Machine's room after collecting and putting all six items on the pedestals and turning the pressure valve on from the projector room, which requires Henry to turn the valve to proceed.

After Henry falls into the basement, there are 3 valves that he has to turn to drain the ink flood before going into the next room.

Chapter 2: The Old Song[]

There are three toggle switches found around the areas of the utility shaft 9 room. Before pulling the lever to open the Music Department hall's entrance, find all three toggle switches and open the lid before activating each switch.

A lever present in the stairwell is used to power the music department.

Into the infirmary, there's one handle switch that opens the door that takes to the boiler room.

The other two handle switches are used to raise and lower the case to kill Swollen Jack.

After turning the two valves, Henry can access to the office of Sammy Lawrence and pull the pump switch to drain the ink into the stairwell

Chapter 3: Rise and Fall[]

From the safehouse, there is an exit door that can only be opened with the handle switch, but the missing lever is only found inside the toolbox.

There is a lever to power on the toy machine from within the room. Inside the said room is a handle switch, used for moving the toy shelves upon activating it.

Behind the planks, there is a small room with three levers and a "PLEASE PULL LEVER" sign above, at first only the first left switch can be pulled. Pulling the switch will start the challenge, and multiple Searchers will appear around Heavenly Toys room. After defeating them all, the second lever will become usable. The second lever will cause multiple clones of Piper, Fisher, and Striker to appear around Heavenly Toys room. Killing them all will make the 3rd and final lever usable. Pulling the third lever will summon the Searcher Boss in the Heavenly Toys room.

Chapter 4: Colossal Wonders[]

Into the pillar room, one lever and one valve are used to spawn a swollen searcher to obtain the thick ink.

A lever in the planning room is used to open the door of the storage 9.

Into storage 9 over four handle switches must be pulled to power up the Haunted House for the ride.

Another two switches are present into the areas connected to storage 9: the lever in the research and design area is used to open the door and the lift control into the maintenance area.

Chapter 5: The Last Reel[]

A lever is needed to release the boat from the barge. This lever has a longer handle than the average lever and can be used twice. There is also a handle switch inside the barge. There is a kever to open the gate that takes to the Administration of the lobby. Furthermore, levers are used to pass the first battle phase of Beast Bendy's fight.

Interestingly, in the barge, you can see the old version of the toggle-switches.

Bendy and the Dark Revival[]

The gent locks and toggle switches are seen lots throughout the game. The ink machine switch, however, is only seen twice, at the beginning and at the end, before the Shipahoy boss fight.

Trivia[]

  • In Bendy and the Ink Machine, from the older updates prior to the release of Chapter 4: Colossal Wonders, the toggle-switches are entirely different in shape, resembling buttons. They also can be found randomly.
