First, repair  the fuse in  the Manor. Put  the portrait from  the
Manor in the notch in the  steps. A code lock will  be revealed.
You will need  to enter the correct number  to open the  code
lock. Subtract  the two dates  you see on the lock to find
Philibert's age when he  died. Enter this number in the code lock.
Click on the cross and an elevator will appear.

How do I use the Elevator? Where does it lead?
You should  have the code  from the shipwreck  before taking the
elevator. The shipwreck  is  visible  from  inside  the
Lighthouse.  Once  you have, use the elevator to descend into the
Crypt. If the elevator doors are closed, open them by pressing on
the portrait in the steps.

How do I enter the Lighthouse?
First, open the Crypt  Vault. Go to the North side of  the
Lighthouse. You will find a full barrel. Use the dart you found at

Lighthouse.  Open the desk drawer. Take the book page and the acid
solution. Use the field glasses to scan the ocean. Find  the
wrecked ship. Click on  the ship to get a  close-up. Click again
to get  a close-up  view of  the bow.  Note the  order and  color
of the symbols  on  the  bow.  For  example,  yellow  sword,

top of the screen until you see the  "Use CORK on BOTTLE" message.
Click your mouse and the  cork will pop  out of the  bottle, knock
the  solvent container to the ground, and fly out the window. Take
the solvent. You will need the cork again, but you will have to
retrieve it from the Garden Well!

How do I get my cork back?
Use the garden hose to fill the Garden  Well and float the cork to
the surface. You must repair  the garden hose to use  it. Attach
the hose to  the faucet. To repair the hose,  use the piece of
fiberglass  that you found in the  Crypt and the can  of resin
from the  Manor. Put the other  end of the hose  in the well. Turn
on the faucet.  Click on the Garden Well to get  a close-up view.
When the well is full, you can take the cork.

How do I open the gate in the Lighthouse basement?
You must have the wooden shoe, the piece of broken glass, and the
acid solution from the Lighthouse.  You will also need the
roasting  spit from the Manor, and some rust remover  from the
Crypt. Pour acid solution  on the algae. Scrape the algae off with
the broken glass. Use the rust remover on the mechanism. Use the
roasting spit to open the gate.

How do I fix the boat? How do I use the boat?
Bail the water out of the boat with the shoe you found on the
Lighthouse steps. Place the piece of curtain from the Lighthouse
on the hole. Finish plugging the hole with  the cork you

the  bottle of nuoc-mam. Look inside  the  basket  on  the  table
a  few  times. Take  the handkerchief, a nail,  and a piece of
bread. Take the notebook under the chair leg. Move  the chair
under the chandelier.  Use  the chair to  reach the chain holding
the chandelier. Use the  nail on the top of the  chain to remove
the chandelier.

What do I do on the beach? How do I get back to the Manor?
Use the nuoc-mam from the Cabin on the piece of bread. Throw the
piece of bread onto the roof. After the gulls knock the buoy off
the roof, use the razor on it to cut the rope.  Click on the

the Manor and go to the fireplace. Get the iron rod leaning
against the wall to the left of  the fireplace. Put  the rod on
the fireplace grate  contacts. Put the log, handkerchief, and
kerosene in the fireplace. Strike a  match on the empty match box
from cigarette pack and  light the fire. When  you have
successfully built the fire, a secret panel will appear.

How do I open the secret panel?
Place the  open barrel on the  flagstone in front of  the Manor
fireplace. Seal the hole  in the barrel  with a candle  from the
chandelier  you took from  the Fisherman's Cabin.  Fill the barrel
with  sand from the trunk  using the wooden shoe.

I've opened the secret passage. What do I do?
Look at the mast  and take the pliers. Put the floats on  the
floor in front of the wooden box. Use the copper wire on the
electric wire to divert the current.Cut the electric wire with the
pliers. Use the small pipe on the puddle to fill it with water.

Return to the Briscarde

What is my goal now that I have returned to the Briscarde?
Your objective is to free Melkior.

What do I do on the Mid Deck?
Take the hook from  the door. Take the oar located by  the
cannonballs. Use the pliers to remove a wooden pin from the ship.

What do I do in the Hold?
Use the hook to open the trunk. Take  the clothes and the ribbon

However, you will  need a dagger to open  the compartment.  When
you  find the  dagger, return  and take the beauty powder and  the
handkerchief by opening  the false bottom twice.  Take the nail
located under the stool by the anchor.

How do I free Melkior?
You need to find Melkior a "saw" so he can be cut free. Connect
the oar and the wooden  pin with  the ribbon.  Use the  pliers to
twist the  nail. Attach  the twisted nail to  the oar/wooden pin
to make  a boat hook. Use the  boat hook to pull  the halyard  in
the  closet. Look  at the  end of  the halyard. Stick the
corkscrew into the notch in the wall. Attach the halyard to the
corkscrew. Look through the  porthole to see  the rope. Pull  the
rope to  bring up the bucket. Look in the bucket 3 times. You will
see a saw. Take it. Retrieve the corkscrew from the notch in the
wall.

What do I do in the Captain's Cabin?

revolver.  Shoot the shackles off  Yoruba. Use the  wet sponge on
the bottle of  rum to remove  the label. Use the  label on Melkior
to show  him the coordinates of the  Island of St. Cristobald.

The Island of St. Cristobald

I've arrived on the beach at St. Cristobald. What should I do?
Listen to Yoruba. Head for the waterfall.

What should I do at the waterfall?

ground beside the waterfall. Use the small pipe to get some
coconut milk. Give the small pipe of milk  to the manicou.  Use
the flag  on the manicou.  Use the parrot  on the passage.

in the  false bottomed cage. Put the gold pieces in the door's
slot.

What should I do at Delia's hut?
Timing is  tricky here. Just  before you  enter  the hut, save
your game. When Delia searches for  her glasses, take the recipe
book.  You only get one chance before she  finds her glasses. Wait
until Delia leaves the  room, then use the mirror on the spider.
Take the silk blouse.

Delia's potion, take the glass.

Where should I go after I've been in Makandal's hut?
Return to Delia's hut and meet with Velvet and Celeucie.

How do I communicate with Serapion?
Go to Delia's  hut and she will give  you an "inverter." Then go
to Makandal's cabin. He'll  give you some "bequiet".  Use the
"inverter" on  the "bequiet" to create the "speakable".  Use the
"speakable" on Serapion and  you'll be able to talk to him.

How do I get past the mean dog near Serapion's hut?
Talk to  Serapion twice. After  you talk to  him a second  time,
he'll give you some coarse salt. Use the "inverter" on the salt to
turn it into sugar. Use the sugar on the mean dog.

What should I do in the Kitchen?
Get rid  of the snake in  the crib. Take the  bag from the table.
Look in your inventory and click on the bag. Click on  the flower
to remove it from the bag. Use the bag  on the fire to take  some
embers. Now place the  bag on the stool. When the snake crawls
into the bag, place the bag on the embers of the fire.
