Hotel Dusk: Room 215 Hints

How do I find the bookmark in the cardboard box?

  • 1 of 3: When you tap the box you shift its contents.  If you tap the box enough times in the right angles, you'll dislodge the bookmark, allowing you to drag it out of the box.  (You'll probably have to tap the box dozens of times to get the bookmark out.)
  • 2 of 3: Twist the box around so that you face the bottom and tap the bottom a dozen times.  Then twist the box around so you face the bottom again, but at a different angle, and tapping another dozen times.  (Try rotating the box left, up, and right.)  Eventually, you'll find the bookmark inside the box.
  • 3 of 3: This pattern seems to work for me: the first time you examine the box, tap the up arrow to look at the bottom of the box, then tap the center of the bottom of the box twelve times.  Rotate the box left, up, and right.  Now you're looking at the bottom of the box at a different orientation.  Tap twelve more times, then rotate left, up, and right to see another orientation.  Tap twelve more times, then rotate left, up, and right.  Tap twelve more times, then rotate left twice to look in the bottom of the box.  The bookmark should now be poking out.
