- Note the gate on the left.
- Click on it and take the PLANK.
- Take a look at the vase in the bottom right corner and take the gold coin and the OILER.
- Next zoom in on the curb to the right and use the PLANK to prize up the stone – take the SCREWDRIVER concealed underneath it.
- Finally zoom in on the cart in the background, place the STAR on it, then use the OILER on the rusty screws, together with the SCREWDRIVER to unscrew them.
- Take the fan inside, as well as the PIECE OF CHALK.
- A scene will now play out where you’ll be trapped inside a cellar.
- In the background is a HOA puzzle – click on it to initiate it.
- Collect the fans, use the dagger to cut open the bag and retrieve the matches inside.

- On completion you’ll receive the MATCHES.
- Exit, note the grinder and the gas burner to the right, as well as the bats hanging around on the left.
- Collect the BROOM and head through the doorway to the left.
- Click on the barrels to the right and take the SOLUTION and the SICKLE HANDLE.
- Note the water scale in the background and the bottle with the roaches climbing all over it – charming!
- Use the BROOM to shoo them away and take the BOTTLE OF KEROSENE.
- Return to the previous room.
- Zero back in on the bats and use the matches to light the torch – the bats will fly away.
- Take the BOTTLE OF WATER.

- Place the BOTTLE OF WATER on the gas burner, and when it has boiled away the contents put it back in inventory and return to the room on the left.
- Zoom in on the water scale in the background, and place both empty bottles on it to initiate the next puzzle.
- The aim is to use both bottles to somehow get four liters of water and place it on the scale to the right to balance the mechanism out.
-
Here’s the solution -
- - Fill the blue bottle up and use it to fill the green bottle
- - Empty the green bottle down the drain
- - Empty the two liters of water remaining in the blue bottle into the green bottle
- - Fill the blue bottle again
- - Pour 1 liter from the blue bottle into the green bottle to top it up
- - Finish by placing the blue bottle on the scale. The trap door in the floor will open. Exit down.
- Place the SICKLE HANDLE on the blade embedded in the post on the right – take the BLUNT SICKLE.
- Click on the rock to the left to pick up a BOLT and use the PIECE OF CHALK to reveal a clue.
- Next zoom in on the crate in the background and note the missing piece, as well as the fact that this must be the puzzle you acquired the solution to earlier.
- Return back upstairs and to the first room you were tossed into.
- Click on the HOA in the background to initiate it.
- This time around you need to collect 11 hands – how gruesome!

- Just keep moving each individual chain until it matches the appearance on the solution.
- Keep working each chain until the match is perfect.
- When done the cabinet in the background will slide apart and reveal some vines obstructing the way – use the SHARP SICKLE to hack your way through.
- Okay, pretty gruesome, right?
- Click on the raven perched on the skeleton, ands when it flies away note the direction the hand is pointing in.
- The trick to getting out of here is to follow the rune sequence mapped out in chalk on the rock earlier.
- If done correctly, you’ll find yourself in a field near a man sitting against a barrel.
- Talk to the gypsy, and he’ll ask you to grease his palm in return for some fortune-telling.
- Coins don’t seem to work on him so give him ESMERALDA’S EARINGS.
- You’ll be given a ‘vision’, after which he’ll proffer another BOLT to add to your collection.
- A bolt for a valuable set of earrings – seems like a trade on the same level as buying Manhattan island for a collection of cheap jewelry! Oh well.
