Secrets of the Ark: A Broken Sword Game Hints
Once I have a "bridge wire," how do I get it into place?
1 of 5: You know which two wires you want to bridge, so start the process by using the paperclip on either one of them.
2 of 5: After you do that, the game will force you to choose which other wire to bridge by making you squint at tiny little pictures along the bottom of the screen instead of letting you click on the wire you want on the main bomb display.
3 of 5: When you think you see which tiny picture shows the wire you want, click on it to try it.
4 of 5: Thankfully, all of the tiny pictures are labeled, so read on for the exact answer.
5 of 5: You can either use the paperclip on the lowest blue wire and then choose the "Live Trigger Wire" picture, or you can use the paperclip on the lower red wire and then choose the "Negative Wire to Trigger Box" picture.
