Secrets of the Ark: A Broken Sword Game Hints
How can I set up my bomb?
1 of 10: You'd need to set it up somewhere very close to the door.
2 of 10: That means you'll need an interactive spot near the door to click the C-4 on, so look for one.
3 of 10: The only interactive item near the door is the light bulb in the socket to the left of it.
4 of 10: Using the C-4 on the light bulb won't work, but think about the fact that you'll need to connect it up to some electricity in order to detonate it.
5 of 10: Maybe if you got the light bulb out of the socket, you could connect up the C-4 there.
6 of 10: Now try using the C-4 explosives on the empty light socket.
7 of 10: Whoops! Forgot about the current still being on! I guess we'll have to turn that off before connecting the bomb.
8 of 10: Looking around the hall, you'll find a light switch and a junction box on the wall where the hallway turns.
9 of 10: Don't use the light switch, or you'll be plunged into eternal darkness (unless you can find the darn thing and turn the lights back on). Instead, see about using the junction box to shut off the electricity to only the empty light socket.
