Trials are challenges in BioShock 2 Multiplayer and its downloadable content, the Sinclair Solutions Tester Pack, which, upon completion, grant the player an ADAM reward. Trials require the player to either fulfill a specific task several times, or achieve a much harder challenge on one occasion, and can be unlocked by reaching a specific Rank. There are three types of trials: Weapon Trials, Plasmid/Combo Trials and General Trials. Each type contains various skill testing tasks.
