The Ward Hints

I have talked to everybody, but nothing new is happening.

  • 1 of 5: If you are sure you have talked to everyone you can, solved all of the puzzles you can, and yet you can't get any action going, try using your new Pager card on some of the locked doors.
  • 2 of 5: See if you can open the Preacher's door with it. If you can, it's time to cause a little distraction.
  • 3 of 5: Rally everybody together.
  • 4 of 5: Ring the Church bell.
  • 5 of 5: This will cause Rita to leave her room so you can investigate those secret rooms further.
