Sherlock Holmes vs. Jack the Ripper Hints

How can I get into the Imperial Club's cellar?

  • 1 of 14: The first thing to do is get that barrel out of the way of the cellar window.
  • 2 of 14: To do that, you'll have to get some leverage on it.
  • 3 of 14: Look around for two boards that you can take.
  • 4 of 14: One is right nearby, in the small pile of wood scrap.
  • 5 of 14: Pick it up, then select it in inventory and click on the hotspot next to the barrel to place it.
  • 6 of 14: Now find yourself a lever.
  • 7 of 14: Look across the street from the club's front door.
  • 8 of 14: There's a hard-to-see stick of wood lying on the pavement near a bottle and a crumpled-up leaflet.
  • 9 of 14: Pick up the wood, then select it and click on the wood you placed next to the barrel. That'll get it tipped over and out of the way.
  • 10 of 14: Click on the cellar window to learn that it's locked from the inside. You'll need a tool with which to unlock it.
  • 11 of 14: There's nothing usable lying around outside, so go back into the club and look around the entry room.
  • 12 of 14: Check the floor next to the coat rack to find a broken hangar that you can take.
  • 13 of 14: The hook on that hangar should do the trick on a simple iron latch, so go try it.
  • 14 of 14: Go outside and use the broken hangar from inventory on the cellar window to unlock it and go through it.
