BioChips are microcomputer chips commonly found in utility droids and neural implant devices. Each
Pegasus BioChip
BioChip provides instructional information for a specific task. Becuase their is only one display panel, only one BioChip can be used at a time.
The Journeyman Project BioChips[]
In the game, the Pegasus and Mapping BioChips become available to an agent on duty when a temporal rip is detected. The rest of the Biochips are only available after each time rip is resolved.
| Bio-Chip | Function | Found in |
|---|---|---|
| Interface | Store present or load a previously saved game. Also shows overall status (score). | Customized from game start. |
| Pegasus | Link the traveler to the time machine Pegasus whenever he is inside a time zone. Automatic recall for emergencies or completed tasks. | Ready room. |
| Mapping | Record a location that the Agent has stepped on. The location appears on the display screen seen from above. | Ready room. |
| Trace | Scans residues left by a time traveler. | Ares' central processor chamber. Near Mars. |
| Shield | Prevents plasma rays from draining too much energy from an Agent. | Mercury's central processor chamber. World Science Center, Sydney. |
| Retinal | Simulates the Agent's retina, when analyzed by an eye scanner. | Mercury's central processor chamber. World Science Center, Sydney. |
| Optical Memory | Stores and plays previously recorded video files. | All Prototypes' central processor chambers. |
| Video | Intended to playback videos stored in Optical Memory. However, this Biochip was never implemented. | - |
The Journeyman Project: Pegasus Prime BioChips[]
In the game, the Pegasus and Mapping BioChips become available to an agent on duty when a temporal rip is detected. The rest of the Biochips are only available after each time rip is resolved.
| Bio-Chip | Function | Found in |
|---|---|---|
| Artificial Intelligence | Mission briefing, Environ Scan, and Hints. Automatically scans residues left by a time traveler, other malfunctions and dangers. Opens up communications with TSA Central Command | Customized from game start. |
| Arthur (Arthur-'Infected' Biochip) | Free with an order of Cornbread. Opens up a temporal anomaly from the replicator, sending Arthur from the future. A blatant temporal anachronism. | Replicator ("e" key) |
| Pegasus | Link the traveler to the time machine Pegasus whenever he is inside a time zone. Automatic recall for emergencies or completed tasks. | Ready room. |
| Mapping | Record a location that the Agent has stepped on in a vacuum environment. The location appears on the display screen seen from above. It does not work in pressurized environments. | Ready room. |
| Shield | Prevents plasma rays from draining too much energy from an Agent. | Mercury's central processor chamber. World Science Center, Sydney. |
| Retinal | Simulates the Agent's retina, when analyzed by an eye scanner. | Mercury's central processor chamber. World Science Center, Sydney. |
| Optical Memory | Stores and plays previously recorded video files. | All Prototypes' central processor chambers. |
The Journeyman Project 2: Buried in Time BioChips[]
The following BioChips are available in the game. The Translate BioChip must be purchased using a code in the Samco Commerical in Gage's Apartment.
| Bio-Chip | Function |
|---|---|
| Bio-Chip (blank) | Blank, no function, later copied over by Arthur |
| (AI) Arthur | Assists you on your mission and provides hints if necessary. He will comment on your sourroundings. |
| Cloak | When activated, it renders an agent invisible. However you are unable to move. |

| Translate | Capable of translating written and spoken forms of every known language. |
The Journeyman Project 3: Legacy Of Time BioChips[]
There is only one BioChip in this game; at first it is the Translation which is copied over becoming the Arthur BioChip (after Arthur downloads himself into the Translation Biochip ).
| Bio-Chip | Function | Found in |
|---|---|---|
| Translation | Not used in its standard state. Arthur copies himself over it. | Customized from game start. |
| Arthur | Combination hints, information, environmental scan, translation, and sidekick. | Atlantis ruins. |
