DNA Dark Native Apostle Walkthrough [1/7 Intro and Prologue]: All Files, All Biochips
DNA Dark Native Apostle is a Survival-Puzzle (Action) game developed by Hudson Soft and Virgin Interactive and published in 2001 for PS2. This game is PAL-exclusive and unknown to most people (I am the second ever to post a walkthrough of this game on YouTube).
In this walkthrough, I am going to collect all biochips (except for the HP-Chip in the West Area because I have no idea how to reach it) and all files (but I won't read them since they only explain puzzles, how to defeat bosses, or describe a few biochip combinations to create special abilities). I also won't fight a lot unless I have to because the battles would take too long and enemies respawn in areas you have to revisit.
Since there are not many walkthroughs of this game, I kept the cutscenes and I show all story relevant dialogues. But I will solve all puzzles directly to save a lot of time. Instances do not vary in this game, so once you memorized all solutions, you don't have to look for them anymore and you can skip some rooms.

In the prologue, once you gain control over your character (04:16), I recommend to just run to the boss fight, since you won't benefit in any way from fighting the guards (04:25 and 04:38).
You can't win the first boss fight because the boss is immune to any kind of damage and the developers made sure that you cannot avoid damage by homing in projectiles and a lot of laser turrets.
But in case you want to know, it is possible to avoid damage, it is just really difficult. You need to keep moving so the turrets won't hit you and before a projectile hits you, you need to jump and kick (05:36). If you want to attack him, you should do it while he has still his animation where he fires his projectiles. Jump over him and place a bomb (05:24 and 05:31).
