The Hardy Boys: The Hidden Theft Hints
How can I reassemble each of the costumes?
1 of 15: This is a very simple puzzle. You won't really even need to look at the costume guide to solve it -- you can just use trial and error.
2 of 15: Basically the first thing you should do is look at each of the eight little costume displays, and grab all of the items sitting by each one.
3 of 15: You will find a total of sixteen items. Two of which go with each costume.
4 of 15: The items you will find are:
5 of 15: Magic wand, tiara, mustache, pitchfork, jawbone, wig, boots, pointed hat, eyepatch, ripped shirt, helmet, broom, broadsword, brooch, sabre, and thighbone.
6 of 15: Most of them are pretty obvious, so just use the items with the costume you think they go with.
7 of 15: The skeleton needs the two bones, the jawbone and thighbone.
8 of 15: The werewolf needs the ripped shirt and the boots.
9 of 15: The devil needs the pitchfork and the mustache.
10 of 15: The witch needs the pointed hat and the broom.
11 of 15: The knight needs the helmet and the broadsword.
12 of 15: The pirate needs the sabre and eyepatch.
13 of 15: The vampire needs the brooch and the wig.
14 of 15: And, the angel needs the tiara and the magic wand.
15 of 15: Once you've returned all of the items to their correct owners, speak with Val.
