Title: Black Sect 2: The Cursed Crypt
Post by: lanchong on Fri 31/01/2020 07:03:03
The 2nd episode is more difficult than the 1st one.
I got
Spoiler
the piece of fabric with the pentagon symbol from the drawer of the parlor. It looks like I should use it to carve something on the floor of the next room up. How?

Thanks

Yes, you're on the right track.

1. First you must have read the instructions first, I think you've done this step already though:
Spoiler

you need to have read the book from the library first.
the info in the book tells you the location where to 'design the emblem'.
[close]

2. Secondly you need to find... (you've done this for certain already):
Spoiler

an example of that emblem, which is indeed that piece of fabric with the pentagon symbol
[close]

3. And the 3rd thing you need is...:
Spoiler

something to carve the emblem with...
[close]
small hint:
Spoiler

which might be found somewhere in the first episode...
[close]
medium hint:
Spoiler

somewhere in the second half of the episode...
[close]
big hint:
Spoiler

maybe you should check the dungeon/prison area a bit closer...
[close]

4. So finally:
Spoiler

while you have the piece of fabric plus the stone, go to the location as said in the book and use the rock on the floor to draw the emblem on the floor.
this triggers something, which is up to you again to find out  ;)

Thank you for taking the time to write all these tips. It was a pixel hunt to find the book but I got there eventually. You've done a great job to remake this game.

I think that maybe Bertolino is stuck at the very beginning. A general tip for this game (the original version is the same): when you find something or open a secret compartment or open a chest, look inside and take whatever, look inside again because you might find another item or a clue. Keep looking until the game tells you "It is empty" or there is nothing to see.
For Bertolino:
Spoiler
Go towhere you picked up the flask and look there - you will find a coin. You can now proceed.

Great remake Arj0n!

You're absolutely right about that, Wiggy  ;)
