Secrets of the Ark: A Broken Sword Game Hints
How can I call the guard on his phone?
1 of 8: You'll need to know the phone's number.
2 of 8: Once you've nabbed the phone, right-click on it in inventory to get George to add the number to his PDA's phone feature.
3 of 8: Then think about the fact that the guard can't receive any calls if his phone is missing.
4 of 8: You'll need to return it before making the call.
5 of 8: Choose the guard's phone from inventory, then use it on the exact same spot you got it from. (It's the only spot the game will let you use it on, so it isn't very hard to find.) Once again, do this when the guard isn't in sight.
6 of 8: Now get into position to make the distracting phone call.
7 of 8: Get off the scaffolding you're on, then climb up to the upper level of the other one.
8 of 8: Click on the PDA in inventory, then click on "phone" and "guard." That'll get the call made!
