Go to the central square and throw a sandwich you got from the brothel to distract the dog. Examine the goblet because it is the 4th evidence.
Go to the park and clean the moss from the monument with the brush you got from the brothel. The initials are the 5th piece of evidence.
File 2. Oscar Brown
Go to the brothel and speak with Diana. She will give you a doorpiece. Use it on the door of the playroom to start a puzzle.
You need to place flowers of the correct colors in the proper places. You can swap positions of 2 flowers, but once the swapping is complete, all flowers will move one place, counter-clockwise.
When you complete the puzzle, you will enter the playroom.
1. Use the umbrella to get the 1st part of the box from the chandelier. You will need 5 parts to unlock a certain box in the playroom later.
2. Go upstairs to pick a powder.

2. Use the key to enter the Oscar’s house.
1. On the right, at the window, pick the 2nd piece of the box. Use the alcohol you got from the cabinet in the brothel to clean the window. The glass of the window holds a clue for the bookshelf puzzle.
2. Go to the bookshelf and solve the puzzle. Push only the books that have symbols present on the window. Order doesn’t matter. Once you complete the puzzle, the safe will be revealed.
3. Go to the table, and pick and read the theater promotion poster with an autograph. This is the first evidence for the “Oscar Brown” file. Once you leave the poster on the table, you will see a tiny comedy mask that was previously behind the poster. Pick it. This mask, together with the tragedy mask, will serve later to open one case where binoculars are.
4. Go to the drawer on the left and use the powder from the playroom to start the puzzle. Click on the surfaces that have the most fingerprints.
Once you solve the puzzle, the drawer will open. Inside the drawer, pick the antler. With the help of an oiler you have, you will fix one statue of a stag later. Check the medicine for the liver. This is the 2nd evidence.
5. Above the fireplace, check the personalized ticket for the theatre show. This is the 3rd evidence. Besides the ticket, pick the tragedy mask. This mask, together with the comedy mask, will serve later to open one case where binoculars are. Exit the house.
Go to the starting area where your car is and approach the bust of a stag. Use an oiler on the hole where the antler is missing and then place the antler you got from Oscar’s house. The box will open that will have numbers in Roman numerals. These numbers are a code for unlocking the safe in Oscar’s House. Don’t forget to pick a 3rd part of the box. It’s beside the bust.
Go to Oscar’s house and open the safe with numbers from the previous clue. Hold the combination lock until the arrow is pointing to the number 9 and then release.

File 3. Relationships of the Deceased
Go to the central square. Use comedy and tragedy masks to unlock the case you just got. Pick the binoculars from the case.
1. Use the binoculars to look at the banners. The banners are the clue for opening the door of the theatre. Each Roman numeral on the left banner corresponds to the animal on the right banner, in order from left to right. Roman numerals explain when to pick which door knocker on the theatre’s front door.
2. Go to the theatre’s front door and use the door knockers in the order described on the banners. Once you open the door, go inside the theatre.
In the theatre, speak with Scott Roth. He will give you a key to the dressing room. Go to the dressing room door, unlock it with this new key, and proceed to the dressing room.
In the dressing room, you need to collect 15 lenses. You will need 15 lenses to open a chest in the theatre.
Once you collect all the lenses, go to the chest in the theatre and use the lenses to start the new puzzle challenge.
You need to move the tiles that have an eye symbol. Move the tile so it jumps over another eye tile. The tile that is jumped over will disappear. You need to delete all eye tiles except the last one. If you complete this puzzle in less than 30 seconds and play the game on Steam, you will earn the achievement “Erudite”.
Once you solve the puzzle, the chest will open. Pick the needle and thread from it. You will need it to patch a fabric in the playroom. That fabric has the clue on it, for one of the puzzles. Pick a case from the chest.
