Nancy Drew: Treasure in the Royal Tower Hints
What should I do in the garden?
1 of 11: It is still very cold outside. Luckily there are only a few spots to examine.
2 of 11: Remember what Wickford wrote in his poem. He hid a keepsake here in the garden.
3 of 11: Wickford wrote that it was "stashed in the back of my old troubled head". Hmmm. Do you see a head anywhere around?
4 of 11: The bust in the alcove is a "head". But you can't reach the back of it.
5 of 11: There must be a way to turn it around in another direction.
6 of 11: The only other thing usable in the garden is the weather vane (arrow) statue. What happens to the bust when you click on the arrow?
7 of 11: The head statue turns!
8 of 11: Turn the weather vane's arrow so it is pointed absolutely west (left).
9 of 11: Go examine the bust more closely.
10 of 11: Click on the handle on the back of the head.
11 of 11: Look at the compartment that has opened. There's a box inside.
