Secrets of the Ark: A Broken Sword Game Hints
How can I open this big door?
1 of 13: Look on the wall just to the right of it.
2 of 13: If you examine the item there, George will say it looks like a release button for the door.
3 of 13: However, when you use it, nothing will happen.
4 of 13: Apparently, there's some other gimmick involved here. Explore around the whole area and see if you can find anything.
5 of 13: This can be tough, since you're not looking for an interactive item, but instead for an audio clue.
6 of 13: Have you checked out the fancy carving that's on the floor a ways back from the door?
7 of 13: Notice the sound that's made when you step on it.
8 of 13: Maybe it's a secret "second button" that also needs to be pressed in order to open the door!
9 of 13: It's worth a try, but how are you going to press both buttons at once? George isn't Mr. Fantastic, after all.
10 of 13: So get Anna Maria to help you.
11 of 13: Talk to her about the button near the door after trying it at least once.
12 of 13: As soon as you regain control, run over to the big floor carving and stand on it.
13 of 13: When Anna Maria presses the button, the door will open if you're standing somewhere on the carving.
