Sherlock Holmes: The Awakened Hints
How can I break Maurizio out of his cell?
1 of 11: The first time you try to walk past his cell, he'll talk to you and threaten to call the nurses if you don't get him a crowbar.
2 of 11: Turn so that Maurizio's cell is on your right, then move forward to the end of the corridor.
3 of 11: On your right will be a locked door with a notice posted next to it.
4 of 11: That's the door you want, so find its key and unlock it.
5 of 11: Maurizio said the maintenance guy keeps the key in a crack near the door.
6 of 11: Look to the left of the door to find a large, dark crack that you can click on after you move up close to it.
7 of 11: Take the key from it, then use the key to open the door.
8 of 11: Go inside and look down on the floor to find the crowbar you're after.
9 of 11: Take it and return to Maurizio's cell.
10 of 11: You can't force the door yourself, so give the crowbar to Maurizio. (Select the crowbar in inventory, then talk to Maurizio.)
11 of 11: He'll take the crowbar and break out, and then get himself caught while trying to go upstairs.
