Barrow Hill: Curse of the Ancient Circle Hints
I'm in the barn, but how can I get back out?
1 of 19: If you look back out the window you came in through, you'll see that your crate fell off the barrel.
2 of 19: You can't leave that way, so explore around the upper level a bit.
3 of 19: When you move far enough across it, you'll fall through the flooring and end up on the barn's ground floor.
4 of 19: This is the level that those two blocked doors are on that you couldn't get in through from outside.
5 of 19: Turn your lantern on and see if you can unblock either of the doors so you can leave.
6 of 19: The smaller door has a padlock on it that you can zoom in on, and the larger doors have a huge beam wedged against them that you can click on (but can't move). Which looks more promising?
7 of 19: Look around and see what all useful items you can pick up.
8 of 19: You can get a Gas Torch and a Rubber Tube. What might they be useful for?
9 of 19: How about cutting off the padlock?
10 of 19: That's the thing to do, but how can you get the gas torch to work?
11 of 19: It probably needs gas fed into it somehow.
12 of 19: Right next to the padlocked door is a convenient gas cylinder. Try hooking the torch up to it.
13 of 19: That's what the rubber tube is for.
14 of 19: Get a close-up of the cylinder, then click on the rubber tube in inventory to connect it up.
15 of 19: Once it's in place, click on the gas torch in inventory to connect it to the tube.
16 of 19: Turn the knob on the cylinder that's next to where the rubber tube connects to get the gas flowing.
17 of 19: Then light the gas that's coming out of the torch the same way you lit the lantern earlier.
18 of 19: Click on the match box in inventory, click on the matches in the box to take one, click it on the side of the box to light it, then click it on the interactive spot at the torch's front end.
19 of 19: That'll cut off the lock, allowing you to open the door and leave through it.
