What can I find in the state room?

  • 1 of 9: Well, if you take a look around, you'll see that most places are covered in thick dust, indicating that they've not seen much use lately and are probably of little use to your investigation.
  • 2 of 9: However, one desk in particular is not dusty.
  • 3 of 9: It's the one at the far left of the area.
  • 4 of 9: You can examine the newspaper clippings on top of the desk, to reveal some more information about Carchon.
  • 5 of 9: And, you'll also want to check out that drawer in the desk.
  • 6 of 9: Inside, you'll find this room's main puzzle.
  • 7 of 9: After you've solved it, check out that drawer one last time. Who knows, you might have missed something.
  • 8 of 9: Nico will pull the drawer right out of the desk, and discover a photograph of Carchon in Africa.
  • 9 of 9: Doing so will end your first stint as Nico, and return to where the original game started, with George outside the cafĂ©.
