Sherlock Holmes vs. Jack the Ripper Hints
How can I place an item on the timeline?
1 of 5: In order for you to do that, the card for the item must have a description on it and a symbol to the right of it.
2 of 5: Click on the symbol to pick it up and get a comment from Holmes, then drag it up to the timeline board.
3 of 5: Move the symbol around under the timeline to get a time display to appear underneath it. That shows you what time it would be placed at if you clicked to drop it right there.
4 of 5: When the time shown under the symbol is the one you want to place it at, click to put it there.
5 of 5: If you're right, Holmes will say something about it, and the time will get a green border around it.
