Secrets of the Ark: A Broken Sword Game Hints
How can I get enough water flowing along the pipes?
1 of 6: Following are exact instructions on which valve settings you need to change from their starting configuration.
2 of 6: To begin with, use the valve that's on the pipe near the "secret door" to open it up. That way, whatever water you send its way will get through.
3 of 6: Run to the right a bit to find that there's a pipe under the next valve that's letting water flow down and out of the pipe system.
4 of 6: Use that valve to redirect the water down the pipes to the left, then move further along the wall until you come to a spot with two valves, one just below the other.
5 of 6: Use the top valve to get the water flowing along the pipes, then move along to find the last two valves.
6 of 6: Use the next-to-last one to get more water flowing through the pipes, and you'll be done.
