Sherlock Holmes vs. Jack the Ripper Hints
How can I set the motives board correctly?
1 of 7: Start by finding it on the wall near the table you got the map of London from at the beginning of the game. (It's to the right of the two windows.)
2 of 7: Click on it to bring up a view of it, then start arranging facts next to motives, just like you did with the previous murder's motives board.
3 of 7: Remember that you can pick a fact and put it in various slots to find where it belongs without having to reason it out.
4 of 7: After that's done, set the Yes/No markers to the left of the motives to what you think is correct. Remember that you can pick up and drop a motive's fact for a big clue.
5 of 7: Read on if you want to know the exact Yes/No answers.
6 of 7: Specimen for the sole purpose of study?: No Black magic?: No Cannibalism?: Yes Trophy?: No Money?: Yes
7 of 7: Once all the reasons and Yes/No's are correctly set, the board will be finished.
