Post-game question:

How does one know which house is DeCharry's? Spent a long time wandering around trying doors and finally had to come to this thread to find out. Just like to know what I miss that I shouldn't have. Thanks.

I honestly don't remember if there's a clue that gives you a hint of where to look for his house or not! It's been too long since I've played it.

Help! I'm woefully ignorant of what I'm supposed to be doing. I don't know where to go or what to do (though I have ransacked a couple of shops and have found one letter from my thiefly adversary). I also found a door in a garden, but it requires a key and I don't have the key. Moreover, there's a guard standing on the other side of a gate, but I can't get the gate open (there's also another gate nearby, but the switch for it is on the other side of it).

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks!

Oh, and I've whacked the harpist a few times, but he doesn't fall down, which sticks, because I wanted to knock him out and take his harp so bad! I'm guessing he's just for show--correct?

You're not supposed to try to harm the poor fellow with the harp. He's simple and no threat to you.

As for the door in the ground that you found [SPOILER] you won't find the key to open it for quite awhile. [/SPOILER]

To get to the next section, you need to [SPOILER] go into a guard tower near one of the gates in the town square and climb it. You'll find another way out. [/SPOILER]

Thanks, Nightwalker!

Now, I appear to be stuck again. I'm in the section of the city that holds the police headquarters and the warehouse, but I don't know what to do next. I already went back to the jeweler's and opened the display case. I already met up with the thieves' ambush waiting for me in that painting warehouse (?), but now I'm just stumped. I'm at a gate that won't open (at one end of the patrol of the guard who you can't knock out) and I don't see a switch or lock for it. Can anyone help me? I'd be eternally grateful!

There are two upstairs sections in the Police headquarters, one above the front foyer and another one accessed by a set of stairs at the end of a hallway. Go up to the latter and follow the hallway to the very far end, where there's a door outside. That takes you to the next section of town. I think you need to find a key to the door along the way somewhere.

This seems to be the last post for the L'Arsene threads so I hope I'm in the right place. I cannot get into La Pouilleaux's tower. Have tried mantling, running and jumping etc etc. Am I missing someting blindingly obvious? Any suggestions and or help anybody pleeeease?

Nightwalker on 11/10/2003 at 17:16

I had the same problem. I had to bring up a box to stand on then I could get in. There's lots in a shed not too far from the bottom of the ladder, so it's not too hard to find.

There's a slight problem with many of the places that can be mantled. Just back up and try again. Sometimes, take short steps instead of long runs.

Thank you guys - I found the 3 crate method worked. By the way Nightwalker, what's the black dot on the envelope icon for?

Sorry too - looking for something else I found the previous post re crates. I should have looked a bit further before posting.
