The Testament of Sherlock Holmes Hints
How can I get back across if I need to?
1 of 5: Simply undo your last plank move.
2 of 5: Walk across the sixth plank (which used to be the fourth plank) to get back onto the fifth plank.
3 of 5: Turn around and pick up the sixth plank, then turn around again and put it back into its original fourth-plank position.
4 of 5: You can then recross the planks to get back to the other side.
5 of 5: When you want to get back across, do the "move the fourth plank into the sixth position" bit again.
