Sherlock Holmes: The Awakened Hints
What's the answer to the quiz question that Holmes asks?
1 of 6: He wants to see if Watson can figure out where to continue the investigation, so check your portfolio for the answer.
2 of 6: What document did you pick up that mentioned a location on "a continent not our own -- one that is wild and untamed in many ways?"
3 of 6: Remember that this is all happening in the 1890s.
4 of 6: The good old U.S. of A. was largely wild and untamed in those days!
5 of 6: One of the documents you got from Dr. Gygax's desk drawer was a telegram from New Orleans.
6 of 6: So type in NEW ORLEANS for your answer, and you'll be off to New Orleans after a brief "Hercule Poirot as a boy" cut-scene.
