Secrets of the Ark: A Broken Sword Game Hints
Investigating facility
1 of 6: Explore the room you're in until you find a door that leads to a hallway.
2 of 6: The hallway has doors that lead into other rooms, plus a locked door at one end that has a glowing key card reader next to it.
3 of 6: NOTE: There are things you can do in the kitchen and men's locker room now, but they aren't useful until you're working on the next task, so no hints for them will be here.
4 of 6: After unlocking the key card doors, go through the one at the end of the hall and explore downstairs.
5 of 6: You'll find that the only new room you can enter is on the next floor down, past the open door at the back of the hall.
6 of 6: When you enter that room, the door will be closed behind you. Trying to open it will get you the long cut-scene that takes you into the "Trying to open safe" task.
