Dreamfall: The Longest Journey Hints
How do I get past the dog?
1 of 5: The dog that will be guarding the backyard after you unlock the fence will chase after you if you're not careful.
2 of 5: But a little observation will suggest how you can be careful enough to make it through the backyard safely.
3 of 5: Zoë comments that he doesn't seem to be disturbed by the sound of the train.
4 of 5: And surely, a young woman's footsteps would be drowned out by the train -- especially if she were to sneak as she were walking. (Use the CONTROL key or appropriate gamepad trigger to do so, of course.)
5 of 5: If you walk while the train isn't moving, it's possible that you'll step on something and make enough noise to wake the dog. That's why it's important to time your walking as closely as possible with the trains -- stop when you can't hear them, and start walking again as soon as another train comes by. Keep repeating this stop-and-go pattern as long as you're in the backyard.
