Broken Sword: The Sleeping Dragon Hints
What can I do with George on the cliff face?
1 of 29: Get familiar with the various controls that allow George to move, jump, hang, and climb up, down, and sideways. Possible movements will be highlighted in the bottom right corner. The highlighted movements may vary, from ledge to ledge, and from various positions on each ledge. It may be helpful to save the game in this area -- before moving George -- so that you can still return to the beginning later and start over.
2 of 29: You might want to talk to Harry before leaving the area -- see if you can climb up where he is.
3 of 29: Jump to the right with "S", then climb up with "W".
4 of 29: Harry won't be any help. You'll have to explore on your own.
5 of 29: Your first goal is to a path heading to the right, towards a waterfall.
6 of 29: The only exit from the ledge where Harry standing is on the right side.
7 of 29: The ledge will crumble under you. The next one will also crumble.
8 of 29: Quickly move to the right of the second crumbling ledge, then press "S" to jump towards the right.
9 of 29: From here you'll only see a very narrow ledge.
10 of 29: Stand facing the ledge and press "S" for George to put his back to the wall. Use the arrow keys to move George around the ledge to the other side, then press "S" again to move away from the wall.
11 of 29: Keep moving to the right, towards the waterfall. When just to the left of the waterfall, there are two possible options.
12 of 29: You can continue to the right, jumping through the waterfall...
13 of 29: ...or you can move to the front edge of the cliff and move downwards.
14 of 29: The correct route is the one to the front edge of the cliff.
15 of 29: From the left of the waterfall, move down (press "A" to hang on the ledge, and "A" again to drop to the lower ledge).
16 of 29: Do the same for the next ledge.
17 of 29: Move to the back of this ledge, then jump over the gap to the back wall.
18 of 29: Move to the right of the edge, then forward, and climb up.
19 of 29: Hang on the ledge, moving back and to the right. Drop down when over the ledge.
20 of 29: Move forward a little, just to step down. Move to the right side of the ledge.
21 of 29: Stand George so that he is facing the ledge, until you see the option for him to put his back to the wall.
22 of 29: Walk George around the ledge, back to the wall. Then move to the right.
23 of 29: Climb up, to the right. Jump to the right.
24 of 29: Climb up, move to the left (and forward), climb up again.
25 of 29: Make sure you are to the right edge of the ledge, and climb up.
26 of 29: Move to the back, climb up, climb up again to the right.
27 of 29: Move to the right of the ledge, jump down.
28 of 29: Go to the left, back against wall, continue left, move away from the wall.
