The Testament of Sherlock Holmes Hints
After the bars are gone, how can I open the window?
1 of 9: You'll have to use the latch that's on the other side of the window.
2 of 9: Holmes doesn't want to make any noise by breaking the glass, so you'll need to carefully cut it with something.
3 of 9: If you click on the window to inspect it, Holmes will mention that Prince Woodville should have a utensil to help with that.
4 of 9: If you'll remember, Watson pointed out that the prince dropped his diamond ring on the stage.
5 of 9: If you didn't pick it up earlier, return to the theater and get it now. The ring is hard to see, but the hand icon that'll appear when you get close to it won't be.
6 of 9: Take the ring and return to the ladder, then climb up it to get the window's close-up again.
7 of 9: Pick up the ring and click it around on all the window panes until you find the right one.
8 of 9: It's the middle one in the third column.
9 of 9: After the glass is cut, click on it to remove it, then click on the latch to open the window.
