Secrets of the Ark: A Broken Sword Game Hints
Finding way to street level
1 of 7: The first thing you need to do is get across the wrecky floor you're on to an open door near a stairwell. (It's over a ways to the right of the door you came in through.)
2 of 7: After you get to the stairwell, you can take the stairs down to either one of the two floors below this one.
3 of 7: The door on the lowest accessible floor is blocked from the other side, so exit the stairwell on the second (middle) floor and start looking around.
4 of 7: If you head to the right after exiting the stairwell, you'll eventually come to a spot where you can drop down to a slightly lower floor. (Remember to right-click to get George to let go when he's hanging onto something.)
5 of 7: Soon after that, you'll find a narrow board walkway that's blocked by sparking electrical cables.
7 of 7: After you escape the building, you'll get a cut-scene in which you're taken to the New York Hotel area and given the "Trying to get upstairs" task.
