Sherlock Holmes: The Awakened Hints
How can I find the secret meeting place?
1 of 13: First, you have to get Wolff to give you a clue as to how to open the meeting place's secret door.
2 of 13: Wolff says something about Dr. Gygax making noises with fires. What fires are there around here?
3 of 13: Wolff can't be talking about Dr. Gygax's office fireplace, since that's only in one spot.
4 of 13: Maybe he's talking about all the torches that are in wall holders.
5 of 13: Wolff said that the doctor first makes noise with the fire near his office, so go check the torches near Dr. Gygax's office.
6 of 13: You'll find that the unlit torch just to the left of the office door is interactive. Click on it to move it so that it's "standing" straighter.
7 of 13: Next, the doctor supposedly makes noise with the fire in front of Wolff.
8 of 13: Go to Wolff's cell and check all the unlit torches around it.
9 of 13: The one that's on the wall directly across from the cell will be interactive, so straighten it up.
10 of 13: The last clue says that the doctor makes noise behind Wolff.
11 of 13: Go down the corridor that's behind Wolff's cell and check the torches.
12 of 13: The one directly across from the "kein zutritt" door is interactive, so click on it.
13 of 13: That'll open up a secret door right next to you!
