It contains an encounter with Seek.

Overview

The Dam appears to be a giant reservoir for sewer water. It has multiple stairwells and ladders going down, multiple storage lockers and worklights scattered throughout, and exposed fluid pipes with valves that must be turned to progress the fight. At the top floor is a large metal door, which is opened using the room's Generator; behind it is a ladder that leads up to a manhole in The Woods.

While the reservoir starts out at a water level low enough to expose a walkway and isolated grate at the bottom, when the players enter the Dam a group of giant pipes begin spraying black goo (the substance Seek is made up of) into the reservoir, filling it up to near the top floor. A massive blob of goo covered in eyes then surfaces from the pool of goo, alongside debris and smaller, eyeless lumps of goo. As the fight progresses, the piped are turned off and the "water" level lowers, allowing access to lower portions of the reservoir, until eventually Seek is drained completely out of the reservoir and the levels are where they were prior to the battle. At the bottom of the reservoir are multiple small corridors.

Walkthrough

To defeat the form Seek takes in this room, the players must turn valves highlighted by the Guiding Light in order to activate the drainage systems for the reservoir. This involves jumping across the debris on the surface of Seek as it uses multiple attacks to try to kill them. Coming in contact with the goo will result in the player taking 10 damage every tick.

Seek's boss fight has three phases, each phase change indicated by the "water" level going down:

• The first phase requires two valves to be turned. During this, hands will rise out of the goo and fall onto the debris, with their landing locations indicated by red lights. Being hit by a hand deals 20 damage.
• The second phase requires four valves to be turned. Alongside the hands, a smaller blob with hands will slowly follow the players through the goo, forcing them to be quick.
• The third and final phase requires five valves to be turned. Alongside the previous attacks, a Seek Worm will jump towards a spot close to the player, also telegraphed by a red light.

Once the final phase is completed, there will be a pre-filled generator that players must turn on. After that, they can open the gate on the top level of the room and use the ladder behind it to climb out into The Woods.

Trivia

• There used to be a generator you had to put fuses in after defeating Dam Seek. After the Floor 2 nerf, the generator still spawns, but all three fuses are already inside, only requiring the player to pull the lever to proceed.
• Falling into the goo slowly does damage over time, rather than instantly killing you. It is similar to how Eyes's damage, but probably around 50% slower.
• The reservoir that players encounter when they climb the manhole that leads into The Woods is monitored by The Dam.
• Due to the name "The Dam" and Seek being drained into the dam, some people probably refer Dam Seek to "Damned Seek" or "Dammed Seek".

Entities

Aside from the version of Seek described above, Screech is also able to spawn at any point during the battle, but does not seem to attack afterwards. Hide appears using its usual mechanics after the boss fight, though it's unconfirmed if it works the same way during it.
