Gold Rush Hints
How do I get into room 12?
1 of 11: There's two ways.
2 of 11: One is by going outside the hotel; the other is from the inside.
3 of 11: Have you tried checking the mail at the lobby?
4 of 11: If you do, you will find a way into room 11.
5 of 11: If you're in room 11, you'll find something that should remind you of your father's tombstone in Sutter's Fort.
6 of 11: Look on the mantle.
7 of 11: Look at the cannon on the mantle.
8 of 11: Turn the wheel on the cannon.
9 of 11: Climb into the fireplace.
10 of 11: You can also try climbing the ledge on the balcony outside the second story door. This way is more fun, but will cost a couple points.
11 of 11: You'll have to break a window or two to get into Room 12. Be careful not to walk in front of an occupied window -- the owner will think you're a catburgler!
