Nancy Drew 25: Alibi in Ashes Hints
How does the case board work?
1 of 4: The case board (which is a large shuttered box on the wall labeled "Suspect Profiles") shows the evidence against each of the possible suspects, the five people who were around the Old Town Hall when it caught fire.
2 of 4: When Nancy gets evidence about one of the suspects, look at the board, and you'll see it on this board, in the section labeled "New Evidence." It's up to you to move it into the box where it belongs (except for the first item, the half-burnt note, which automatically goes into Nancy's box the first time you open the case board).
3 of 4: Physical items (like the box of matches and the burnt note you got from one of your friends) will be enclosed in ziplock bags. Bits of information you learn from your friends (like alibis) will appear as sticky notes.
4 of 4: As Chief McGinnis said the first time you opened the case board, as soon as you think you have the evidence you need, push the red "Intercom" button at the lower right and he'll come and check it all. If you have what you need and it's all in the right places, he'll let you out; if not, well, keep looking.
