Safecracker Hints
How do I get to the cellar from the second floor?
1 of 9: Search carefully -- this entrance to the cellar isn't obvious.
2 of 9: In particular, look around in room 37 (library).
3 of 9: Look for something to pull.
4 of 9: Beginning with your back against the door to room 52 (Crabb's office), pivot to the right. Follow the wall until you can't go any further.
5 of 9: Look immediately in front of you.
6 of 9: There is a pull rope, with the word "PULL" on it.
7 of 9: Ignore the sign which says "Please do not pull".
8 of 9: Clicking on the pull rope results in a quick drop to the cellar.
9 of 9: This is a one-way passage. It is not possible to go back up the chute to the second floor.
