Mystery Case Files: Dire Grove Hints

Where is there to go?

  • 1 of 7: You've probably noticed the huge multi-story hotel dead ahead, yes? That's a good place to start, but there's more to explore.
  • 2 of 7: If you go left, you'll come to a covered bridge -- with a huge hole in the floor, so you can't get across it yet.
  • 3 of 7: If you turn right, you'll see a tree with something stuck in one of the branches.
  • 4 of 7: Turn left when you're standing next to the tree, and you'll find the hotel's generator.
  • 5 of 7: When you're standing next to the tree, you can see the hotel's garage ahead.
  • 6 of 7: Go past the garage, and you'll find a path that takes you to the hotel's boathouse.
  • 7 of 7: All of those places will require extensive problem-solving to get into. Start with the hotel; it's open, and there are lots of things to do there.
