Go towards the gates of the cemetery and, standing two steps away from them, you will see how the device works. Just combine the two amplitudes - green and red, by rotating the toggle switches at the bottom of the device. It is not difficult to do this. Then walk in a circle and find the second point. The third point is under the tree to Joe's left. When you combine the amplitudes of the tree, you will find a strange device on it.

Look for fakery clues in the forest

Move into the forest towards Hathorn's house (to the left of the sign in the cemetery). Walk forward and stop at the first fork. Follow the left, to the littered tree, and examine the ropes with hooks on the tree on the left. Return and go to the opposite side of the fork. On the left is a spotlight, and on the right is a plate of powder. Finally, head straight from the fork and look at the pumpkin head with the candle inside.

Search Olivia 's shop

Leave the forest and the cemetery and av?You will automatically enter Olivia's shop. Approach the table and on its right side you will find a piece of paper with mysterious symbols. Right click on it in inventory. Expand the sheet and study the drawing of the graves.

Follow the map

Go to the cemetery, find the two graves marked on the map, and in accordance with their location, find the right one, where something is buried. In order not to get lost, enter the cemetery, take two steps forward and turn right. Literally after two steps, look to the right and find the black tombstone of Samuel Sewall. Pull out the bush and find a box of evidence. Examine it to proceed to the decryption puzzle.

How to decipher Olivia's note

You have 5 lines. A hint is given at the beginning of each. For example, in the first it is the letters H and O and the symbol of "a vertical line and three stripes perpendicular to it." Rotate the inner Greek ring so that the O aligns with the "vertical line and three perpendicular stripes." Then rotate the inner circle so that the letter H coincides with the letter O. That is, now all three characters from the hint are on the same row. Next, click on the button at the bottom right Select Letters. Now you will not be able to rotate the rings, but you will be able to select letters. See the first line and choose a sequence of three characters?? that ends with the first character of the string. This will be the letter R. The result should be the phrase RESTOCK WANDS . If you do not want to bother, then after the first setting, select the Latin letters in this order.

Next, you will need to make additional settings for four more lines. The first letters are missing everywhere. And here they are:

  • V and the phrase GROCERY SHOPPING
  • M and the phrase INVENTORY JUST DO IT
  • K and the phrase CAT MAINTENANCE
  • GET Stock from L (we missed the right letter, but you need to set up two plates and then make the first character match the letter G.

Next, chat with everyone, including Olivia. Decide who to blame. We chose a neutral, bottom line. You will receive the It's right there achievement .

Find source of ergot poisoning

Move into the forest and examine the scarecrow. From the right sleeve (left on the screen), take out a piece of the flyer . However, this subject, like rosemary , is not relevant to the investigation. To pick a green rosemary bush, go forward through the forest to the first fork.

Get out of basement

Turn around and pick up the first thin board??y, which lies next to the lamp. Paste it into the icon. Under the barrel to the left of the lamp is a note with the words I am just a shadow . The barrel to the right of the lamp has the initials AW. Click on them, and then on the board a little higher (on the lid of the same barrel) to find a cache with a metal object . Apply the note found under the barrel to any candles near the icon. Examine the drawing that appears on it. The "cross" marks the desired brick. Face the wall to Mei's left. There are two horizontal strips of bricks, three in each with the initials AW. Use the metal item on the middle brick in the top lane. A niche will open. Take out a thin plate from there and install it in the icon.

[adinserter block="7"]

Examine the icon itself. Hold LMB and move the cursor over the icon to wipe off the dust. Now you need to move the side stripes so that you get a symmetrical pattern on the left and right. The answer is shown in the screenshot below, but how to achieve this result? First, you can close the puzzle on the "cross" in the lower left corner of the screen. In this case, everything will return to their positions. Secondly, number the four strips on the right side from left to right from "1" to "4". Now drag them like this:

  1. No. 1 all the way up.
  2. No. 3 all the way up.
  3. #4 up twice.
  4. #1 od?n times up.
