Secrets of the Ark: A Broken Sword Game Hints
How can I distract the receptionist long enough to nab the letter?
1 of 9: Have you tried taking it when she's busy at the reception computer?
2 of 9: That's not enough. You'll have to come up with something that's a lot more distracting.
3 of 9: Remember that you once again have Anna Maria with you, ready to help.
4 of 9: What if one of you grabbed the letter while the other one was distracting the receptionist?
5 of 9: George is always in charge of all interactive conversations, so he'll obviously be the one to do the distracting while Anna Maria does the letter-snatching.
6 of 9: Choose Anna Maria's head icon from inventory, then click it on the letter. (Or talk to Anna Maria about Eamon O'Mara.)
7 of 9: After George tells her about the plan, have him talk to the receptionist.
8 of 9: Just talking to her isn't enough, though -- you'll have to find something to talk about that really interests her.
9 of 9: Once you know she's an avid golfer, talk to her about golf (or use the golf club on her). That'll distract her long enough for Anna Maria to grab the letter.
