10 Secret Ways To Win In Video Games You Had No Idea Existed

5. You Can Destroy Anna And Gunther With Their Kill Phrases - Deus Ex

Kingdom Come
Ion Storm

Deus Ex's world is a dystopian future ruled by the secrets and intrigues of humanity's puppet masters.

Fortunately for you, you can use some of these secrets to make life easier for you if you manage to discover them!

At a later point in the game, your character's closest companions, Anna Navarre and Gunther Hermann, turn on him, and you end up having to kill them. This normally is accomplished via two really tough boss fights where the cybernetically enhanced traitors get to show off the full strength of the shiny chrome on their bodies.

However, you can also use their implants against them to instantly win without fighting.

Both Anna and Gunther are equipped with killswitches that instantly blow up their heads when you utter the correct phrase.

To get Anna's phrase, you have to look up its two parts on her and Manderley's computer.

For Gunter, all you have to do is convince Jaime to stay at UNATCO instead of fleeing to Hong Kong, and the man will give the whole killphrase to you afterward.

Once you do that, defeating Anna and Gunther is as easy as saying a few words.
