Secrets of the Ark: A Broken Sword Game Hints
How can I get any of these doors open?
1 of 9: Have you examined everything in the room?
2 of 9: Including the little red warning sign that's on the wall just to the right of the fancy door near the cash register?
3 of 9: It says that the museum uses an infrared alarm system. You'd better find a way to shut it off before you proceed.
4 of 9: There's a computer on the opposite side of the room -- try it.
5 of 9: Unfortunately, it's password-locked, and there's no way to find out the password.
6 of 9: So you're going to have to use your PDA to hack in.
7 of 9: Use its "connect" feature to find the Topkapi Security Management device, then choose it to bring up another hacking puzzle.
8 of 9: Unfortunately, once you hack in, you'll find that you can't turn off the laser alert system, but can only put it in test mode using the first option.
9 of 9: So go ahead and do that, especially since it'll unlock the fancy door with the warning sign next to it, allowing you to open it and go through.
