Still Life Hints

Office: How can I get to the secure archives level?

  • 1 of 11: The archives are downstairs, in the basement...
  • 2 of 11: ... on level B3.
  • 3 of 11: However, to take the elevator to that floor requires using a special security key.
  • 4 of 11: Who might have the proper security clearance to access the archives -- thereby possessing the elevator key?
  • 5 of 11: Most likely Todd would have a key.
  • 6 of 11: But where would he keep it?
  • 7 of 11: Probably in a very safe (!) place.
  • 8 of 11: Check the safe on the wall in Todd's office.
  • 9 of 11: After applying Todd's fingerprint to the scanner, click on the safe to open it.
  • 10 of 11: Take the security key from the safe.
  • 11 of 11: You can now use the security key in the elevator (B3), to reach the secure archives floor in the basement.
