Secrets of the Ark: A Broken Sword Game Hints
How can I sneak past this guard?
1 of 9: Notice that he comes toward your location and stops, then turns around and goes back the other way.
2 of 9: Also notice that when he reaches the other end, he turns left and goes down a little side area.
3 of 9: When you see him start down the left side area, run out from cover and down toward the side area's entrance.
4 of 9: However, you can't go down the side area (and wouldn't want to, anyway), so find another place to hide.
5 of 9: There's another of those little stick-out walls on the right down there, so hide in its shadow like you were doing with the first one.
6 of 9: While safely hidden there, use the cursor to scan for exit possibilities.
7 of 9: Notice that there's a very large opening in the back wall that's low enough to climb into.
8 of 9: Wave your cursor around near the bottom of the opening to see that you do indeed get the climb cursor there.
9 of 9: Wait until the guard is either going down the left side area or has just moved past you going the other way, then run for the climbing spot.
