Jack Keane Hints

How can I get the shopping cart down from the spider web?

  • 1 of 14: You're going to need to find a way to weigh the cart down enough that it will release itself from the sticky webbing.
  • 2 of 14: There are two items around the cavern, both of which you need to place inside the cart, in order to provide the necessary weight.
  • 3 of 14: Both are hefty, filled with liquid, and made of wood.
  • 4 of 14: There are two barrels of liquor, one near Montgomery and the other nearer the entrance.
  • 5 of 14: Now we need to find a way to get the barrels into the cart.
  • 6 of 14: Do any of the denizens of this cavern have a certain penchant for hard liquor?
  • 7 of 14: Perhaps as evidenced by a collection of empty bottles?
  • 8 of 14: Our good friend the spider can help us here.
  • 9 of 14: Place both of the barrels, one by one, onto the webbing, and the spider will transport them into the cart.
  • 10 of 14: Seems the cart still won't release.
  • 11 of 14: If you want to take a cart from a chain of them outside the supermarket, what do you sometimes have to do? (Or maybe think about getting luggage carts at an airport if that helps you.)
  • 12 of 14: They may require a deposit to release them.
  • 13 of 14: Luckily we have such a deposit with us.
  • 14 of 14: Use the shilling coin with the cart (you can climb onto the ledge just to the right of it) and it will fall down to the ground.
