Secrets of the Ark: A Broken Sword Game Hints

How can I distract the guards?

  • 1 of 6: You'll want them to be looking in the opposite direction when you open the factory door, so see what there is to the left of the guards.
  • 2 of 6: The only interactive item over there is the trash can that's in between two trees.
  • 3 of 6: Maybe if you lit a fire in the trash can, the guards would both rush over there to try and put it out.
  • 4 of 6: Examine the trash can twice to learn that it has a lot of paper in it as well as a half-full bottle of champagne. That plus a lighter sounds like a recipe for a fire!
  • 5 of 6: Unfortunately, the trash is soaked from the champagne, and it's not alcoholic enough to start a good fire.
  • 6 of 6: Use the bottle of meths on the trash can, then use the lighter on it to get the blaze (and the guards) going.
