Secrets of the Ark: A Broken Sword Game Hints
How can I get the vent to blow smoke?
1 of 9: You'll have to stick something in it that'll produce smoke. Once you do that, the vent will blow it throughout the room for you.
2 of 9: You can't find any smoking log gimmicks this time. Besides, nothing that big would fit in the opening due to there being another safety grille in it.
3 of 9: Search your inventory for something that you could make into a smoking object.
4 of 9: You have a lighter, so what could you stick into the vent and light up?
5 of 9: Your only reasonable option would be a piece of paper.
6 of 9: Find one in your inventory that you don't need anymore.
7 of 9: Like the hotel flyer with the number scribbled on it.
8 of 9: Use the flyer on the vent opening to get it put in and the outer grille closed.
9 of 9: Now use the lighter on the closed outer grille to set the flyer ablaze. Lots of smoke, coming up!
