The Hardy Boys: The Hidden Theft Hints
What's with these business cards?
1 of 10: Listen to what Russo just told you.
2 of 10: He said that the man you just showed him the picture of was here, for a haircut!
3 of 10: And, that he left his business card in that bowl.
4 of 10: Russo always asks customers to leave TWO cards in the bowl, in case of unseen circumstances.
5 of 10: But, he said that this customer was only able to leave one for some reason.
6 of 10: So, as Joe says, it will be remarkably easy to find out which card is his.
7 of 10: Take a closer look at the bowl, and a small memory-match style minigame will begin.
8 of 10: All you need to do is click pairs of cards until you find those that match, and keep repeating the process until all the cards are gone except the single remaining one.
9 of 10: You will soon learn the name and location of the suspect.
10 of 10: His name is Dougal Siepp, and he has a costume shop in Manhattan!
