Secrets of the Ark: A Broken Sword Game Hints
How can I distract this guard?
1 of 11: As usual, the first thing to do is search carefully around for interactive items.
2 of 11: If what you find isn't enough on its own, check your inventory.
3 of 11: In this case, the interactive item you need is a loose stone.
4 of 11: It's near the back of the area, a bit to the left of where you start out.
5 of 11: Walk to the left until you see a tall stone stick-out wall thing that slants partway up.
6 of 11: Move the cursor around the base of that until you can click the eye on the loose stone.
7 of 11: Since looking at it is all you can do (right-click on it to verify), it's clear you need to use an inventory item on it.
8 of 11: You've only got one left!
9 of 11: Use the squeaky toy on the loose stone to put it in place.
10 of 11: Run over to the right, then wait for the guard to go behind the dome.
11 of 11: When he does, run down to where he was and enter the next roof area.
