Secrets of the Ark: A Broken Sword Game Hints
How can I get the manuscript out of the cabinet?
1 of 12: With all those locks, you can forget about picking or breaking them. As for the keys, ol' "Fingers" will undoubtedly keep all of them on him at all times.
2 of 12: So how might you break into the cabinet and get the manuscript?
3 of 12: For a hint, look around for other interactive items.
4 of 12: Check out the large array of windows that make up the "wall" to the left of the cabinet.
5 of 12: You can click the eye cursor on the top part of the dark center section of the 3X3 window array nearest the cabinet.
6 of 12: Do so to learn that the "bone cruncher" machine is directly below that spot.
7 of 12: George remarks that the bone cruncher could probably tear cars apart, so it probably wouldn't have any trouble with a metal cabinet, would it?
8 of 12: That plan sounds like it would be *very* dangerous for the manuscript, but you've got to try it. (Besides, if the manuscript does get ground up, at least the thugs won't have it, either.)
9 of 12: Now your problem is how to get the cabinet into the bone cruncher machine.
