Broken Sword: The Sleeping Dragon Hints
How should the crates be moved?
1 of 19: Look at the crates to see if you can figure out how to move the second level crate (on the table) out onto the left towards the wall. It is helpful to note that the ground in this area is marked with squares -- and the crates are exactly as wide as two squares.
2 of 19: Once you start moving the second-level crate, you won't be able to easily move any of the first-level crates behind it, because there isn't much space between the tables and crates.
3 of 19: You might want to move all the lower crates in position all at the same time, before moving the second-level crate.
4 of 19: See the first-level crate in place at the bottom of the far left wall?
5 of 19: Even though this crate already appears to be in place, it will be needed elsewhere to move the second-level crate.
6 of 19: Pull this crate out (up-screen) one space, then move it to the right one space.
7 of 19: Next, grab the dark crate (it's not really dark, it just looks dark in the shadow) that is a bit to the right of the opening in the wall.
8 of 19: Move this crate up-screen one space, then left one space.
9 of 19: Grab the crate near the bottom right corner of the second-level crate and push it one space to the left.
10 of 19: Grab the final crate on the right, and bring it two spaces down-screen and two spaces left.
11 of 19: Time to grab the crate on the second-level. Pull it back (down-screen) one space.
12 of 19: Jump down and grab the crate on which George stood to move the second-level crate, and move it one space left, and one space up-screen.
13 of 19: Once again, time to move the upper crate. Pull and push it as far as possible to the left.
14 of 19: Next, grab the crate (on the lower level) that is just to the right of the stack of two crates.
15 of 19: Pull (and push) it up-screen once, left twice, then down-screen twice.
16 of 19: Go to the far-right crate and move it one space away from the crate it is touching.
17 of 19: Grab the crate (that was touching the one you just moved) and move it left once, up-screen once, left twice, then down-screen once.
18 of 19: Move the second-level crate to the left, then down-screen.
19 of 19: Climb up and move the third-level crate to the left (finally!).
