The object of the puzzle is to move the gold metal arrowhead at bottom through the rings to end up at the inner horizontal slot at the center.

Note that there 5 rings. There are metal bars that blocks passage within the rings and rotating gold bars that throws the arrowhead back to the start.

I find that the easiest way for me is to use point and click within the rings rather than keyboard or arrows at bottom right.

Position the arrowhead at the open spot at bottom.

Move the arrowhead using left click on the place you want it to go.

Click on next ring when the rotating bar just passed. Time each click on the next subsequent rings when the rotating bars are far from where you click.

At the 4th inner ring or the one second to the innermost, position the arrowhead close to the blocking bar at right so that you can get to the inner ring as close as possible to the horizontal slot at center. Then move the arrowhead inside the slit. Good luck.

Check the cells:

The wardens have placed the Flints back in their cells.

O'Sullivan is nowhere to be found presumably left through the other door. Now the wardens will check the cells.

Holmes goes upstairs and Watson stays to help check the cells.

Check Schielman's cell. The gate is open.

Enter and check the sleeping man. It is O'Sullivan.

Warden James says that O'Sullivan was with them earlier unless... Schielman has escaped.

Go back to the reception room and talk to Holmes.

Behind the prison:   

Behind the prison, go to the man standing at left. It is Schielman. He is there because Holmes asked him to.

Holmes admits helping Schielman escape. This caused Watson to be very upset.

Holmes will bring Schielman to a safe place and will rejoin Watson at the next place Watson will go to.

Holmes gives his notes to Watson as explanation to what happened.

Select the next place you want to go to.

Read Escape from Westgate Prison for Watson's transcription of the Holmes' explanation. Holmes revealed what was in the note in Schielman's box. The ink in the pen was mixed with his masterpiece.

Whitechapel

Holmes and Watson walk down Whitechapel Street.

Look around and talk to any active person. It is nice to revisit the area. You can check Buck's Row (first side road at right) where Polly Nichols was killed. See people eating. Some have lost their homes.

If you talk to some of the non-essential characters in the streets, you might get the A Very Fine Loafer honour.

(Optional) Check the people at Whitechapel Street: those in line for a job, young boys, man closing shop; man selling newspaper; beggars and policeman pass the church.

Solomonovitch place is closed.

Find the source of items taken from murder and analysis.

Dispensary:

Walk forward and see the dispensary at right. It is now marked at the map (inset after clicking on Whitechapel).

Go through the gate and see falling leaves from trees; people sleeping in benches and working people.

Enter the dispensary. Talk to the physician. Dr. Watson recognizes the doctor. It is an old colleague, Dr. Grant. Dr. Grant sounds bitter.

Holmes asks about the scalpel. Dr. Grant says it seems to be stolen from here by an employee.

Exit the dispensary and through the gate.

Cemetery:

See a circulating soup kitchen cart across the street and left of the church.

Enter through the church gate where a beggar is kneeling and right of the soup kitchen cart.

Holmes deduces that it came from the long rope. The rope is used to lower the coffins to the grave.

Items:    Go to the right side of the shed and check the shovel leaning by the ladder.

Take the leaflet on the wheelbarrow. It mentions that the soup kitchens are donated by Prince Woodville. This is a voucher for September 19. It is written for Kurtz and signed by Grape Ape.

Holmes deduces that since this voucher is for 2 days from now, only someone that works there could have written it. So Grape Ape works with the soup kitchen distribution.

Back part of cemetery:    Go through the gates at right to enter the back part of the cemetery.

Open grave:    Turn left and go forward to the freshly dug grave.

Soil:    Examine the soil at foot of grave.

Use the magnifying lens on the small piece of stone - they are of the same granite.

Use the magnifying lens on the wall under the chipped area at bottom part of the large piece of stone - black paint.

Use the magnifying lens on the small stone to show that it also has black paint.

Soup kitchen:

Talk to the volunteer manning the mobile soup kitchen by the church gate.

Ask about Grape Ape and Kurtz. He refuses to answer.

Money Dice game:    Click on the dice game - 36 on the box right of the soup kitchen.

Aha. Talk to the volunteer again about the money game. The bet is the volunteer's ring against Watson's watch.

The rule is the first who gets 36 points wins.

Roll the dice and then decide if you want to accept that number shown. If yes, roll again.

Roll the dice as many times as you want before "storing it" but - warning; if you show a skull all the numbers accumulated is lost. (I do not roll more than 4 times before storing the accumulated points.)

Click the "store points" button at bottom left to keep what numbers has been rolled (as shown at top bar) and let the opponent play.

The accumulated number is seen at right.

Talk to the volunteer after winning the game. My, such a sob story. Hahahaha.

Turn the box on several sides and bottom. See and click on all 4 lock cipher codes - numbers etched on those sides. They are noted by Watson. I have noted everything.

Dial I =  The progression of the numbers is: 1 + 2 = 3; 2 + 3 = 5; 3 + 5 = 8.

Turn dial 1 to 8.

Dial II = Add the left column and the sum is 9. Add the middle column and the sum is 9. If the blank third number of the right column is 1; the sum will be 9.

Turn dial 2 to1.

Dial III = Going on a spiral starting at 21; the difference between 21 and 18 is -3; 18 and 16 is -2; 16 and 15 is -1; 15 and 12 is -3 (starts over); 12 and 10 is -2 ; 10 and 9 is -1 and 9 and 6 is -3 again. So it is a repeated -3, -2 and -1 pattern. By the progression, the next number following 6 should be 4 having a difference of -2. (Thanks Rushes!)

Turn dial 3 to 4.

Dial IV = The difference between 10, 8 and 6 is 2; the difference between 3, 7 and 11 is 4. The only available progression with a difference on the bottom row is 1; so the middle blank number is 3.

Turn dial 4 to 3.

From left to right: turn the dials 8, 1,  4 and 3. The box opens. See that the new revolver is gone.

Holmes' question to Watson:

Now that all items are checked, Holmes asks Watson a question.

My dear Watson, in the garden and in this room, pieces are missing that should have never have left their places. What do you think?

Click on revolver, spade and violin case.

 

Holmes says that they have to recapture Henry Hampford immediately. Holmes explains that Henry has a moderate behavioural problem. The candle is still warm so Henry left just moments before they arrived. A sign that Henry is upset is the chaotic state of the room. The missing items especially the gun is worrisome.

Holmes will pick up an old friend in Lambeth. One that helped them at The Sign of Four.

Wharf 321

Holmes says that the reason for the quarrel between Henry with the Bishop is here in the industrial area. Toby will find Henry with his sense of smell.

Place a plank on the railing (at the spot of the cursor in the picture). Walk the plank. See that a wall support is needed for the second plank.

Go back to the railing, study the maze below again and see that there are 2 areas that need walls.

In inventory combine the 2 bed sheets to make a cloth rope. Use the cloth rope on the bottom part of the baluster left of the draped cloth on the railing.

Climb down the cloth rope.

First wall:     Go forward and check the plain wood wall at left. Look right to see a metal wheel panel that turns the plain wood wall. Holmes says it is rusty and might make noise.

Use the oilcan taken from the rifle case on the metal wheel panel.

Push the plain wood panel at left and see it swing to the right side. One wall support is now in place.

Second wall:    From the metal wheel panel; go F - R - L - L.

Open the plain wood panel at right.

Immediately go left (while seeing a cross at far end of the hallway). Open another plain wood wall.

Go F and open another plain wood wall. The wall swings to the right where we want it to be. Second wall support is now in place.

Go back to the cloth rope and balcony. Turnaround, F - R - R - L - R - R - L - F to cloth rope.

Make a walkway:    Place the first plank on the railing. Walk the plank.

Place the next plank. Look around for the active place to put the next plank down; it might be on the left or right of the previously laid plank.

Turn and walk the next plank until there are no more planks.

Turn around and take the previous stepped on plank and place it to the last empty space.

Climb to the other balcony.

Disable the planted bombs:

Call and warn Inspector Lestrade:

Check the glass door at left. Use the key taken from Moriarty's table on the lock.

Enter and use the telephone. Hear another warehouse bell.

Holmes calls Scotland Yard and talks to Inspector Lestrade about his state of health and the bombs. The police are to wait for the defusing instructions.

Watson:    Holmes is alerted by the tapping on the window.  Check the window.

Holmes talks to Watson about the live bomb he has with him. Watson wants Holmes to bring the telephone.

Holmes jumps out the window. They will use the bomb on the warehouse and check the merry go round.

They have to disconnect the bomb from the merry go round control panel and then tell Lestrade when to turn off the switches.

You are reversing the roles, Watson. Highly amusing.

Turn off the switches to the bombs:

Go to the carousel and then to the control panel.

Connect the telephone to the telephone panel at top right. Perfect!

Look close at the live control panel at left.

See colored balls in 2 rows at outer circle.

The inner circle balls are still grayed out.

The outer balls are separated into quadrants. Each of those quadrants represents a bomb in a London location.

The grayed balls in the inner circle can be clicked to show different colors.

The aim of the puzzle is to highlight a column of balls in the outer circle by complimenting their colors with the balls in the inner circle.

Click the inner balls to copy a pair of balls in the column seen at outer ring.

Once a quadrant is finished, a bomb in that location can be switched off. Holmes will tell Lestrade to do so.

One solution is shown below. The starting colored ball in this solution is the inner yellow ball seen at left picture and the lit balls go counterclockwise. The bottom left quadrant (Scotland Yard) is finished at left picture.

The finished solution is the picture on the right.

The bombs have been disconnected. The switches can be turned off now.

Get the Minesweeper honour for defusing the planted bombs.

Obtain The Brain honour for not skipping a puzzle.

     

Moriarty exits from the Haunted House and wonders why the bombs have not exploded yet. He calls for the anarchists to be brought to the warehouse. He will go to the warehouse to check on the soup preparations.

Stop the soup kitchen carts:

Cable car:   

Go to the main gate just across the steps from the carousel. Exit through gate. There are no guards.

Go to the cable car. Hear the warehouse siren. Watson explains about the siren.

We must hurry... Moriarty's men are looking for us, the soup production is nearly finished and I am carrying a primed bomb in my hands!

Enter the cable car. The cable car stalls in the middle of the ravine.

The goons see the cable car and Moriarty is alerted. Moriarty taunts Holmes.

Bomb:    Pick up the bucket from behind Watson.

In inventory combine the bucket and the bomb. Combine the bomb in a bucket with the belt to get bomb ready.

Use the bomb ready on the cable above Watson. Watson sends the bomb through the cable to fall and roll in front of the water reservoir.

Get back to the other side away from the bomb:    Look left at the panel beside Holmes at side of cable car.

Use the knife to flip the right latch. Pull the manual emergency system lever.

Watch the bomb destroy the water reservoir.

Get the Bomb Defuser honour for using the bomb.

Find out who Moriarty obeys:

Enter the fun fair again. Go to and enter the Haunted House.

From the door, go left to the side passage. Open the door.

Watch what happens.

Get The Legacy honour for finishing the game.
