dame quinn - the ankh in the painting made me think of cleopatra...

You will be in a boat driven by a fisherman in a green shirt and black hat, holding an invitation that says "You are Invited to Attend" and "Seven Noble Kinsmen". Click the next button in the bottom right. You will be taken back five years.

Click the next button through all the information to hear about the play itself and the eight other characters -Richard Burrows, Will Kent, Susanna Hilton, Dame Judith Quinn, Lord Edward Allwood, Anne Hatcher, Christopher Morton, and Robert Archer. You will also find out that the play closed in only a week because of scathing criticism from many newspapers, and that YOU were the critic who destroyed Morton's production - the Seven Noble Kinsmen.

The fisherman in green will hand you a PDA that he was "told to give to you". Click next.

It will run you through the basic things you need to do to solve the mystery - explore the rooms, talk to all the characters, find the 7NK script, find the Shakespearean Quotes Book, and look in your PDA when you get stuck. Don't worry, you'll find the script and the quotes book later. You'll have me to help, so I don't think you'll be using your PDA much. :) Click "Begin The Mystery".

The door to the Knell will open, and you will find yourself in the Foyer. Speak to Lord Edward Allwood by clicking on him; ask all three series of questions. Do the same with Anne Hatcher to the left of Edward, and Robert Archer to the left of Anne. If you would like, click one of the posters on the wall to read about all eight actors/actresses and get a bit of background.

You will see something glittery between Robert and Anne. Click it. You have found a WATCH. Click "view item" to reach your inventory. Click the watch, and on the right side click "rotate view" to see it has a 7 on the back, along with CM. Hmm. Christopher Morton, perhaps? Click "back to room" in the bottom left corner.

Put you mouse to the far left side of the screen and click to turn around. You will find another glittery thing on the floor. Click it. You have found a PLAQUE. Click "view item", the plaque, and "rotate view" to see it has a 9 on the back. Click "back to room".

To the left of the doors (your left), you should see quite a few pictures all bunched together on one wall. Click the one in the bottom-middle. It should be bluish-gray. You have found a MAP, that is automatically loaded into your PDA, in case you get lost.

Turn back around, and click the door to the right of Anne. Your hand should say "exit". If it says you are unable to lock the door at this time, it means you are clicking too high. Click "exit" to enter the Theatre.

You will now find yourself right next to Will Kent. Speak to him, ask all the questions. You will also see something to the right of Will. Click it. You have found a RECEIPT. As with the watch and plaque, click "view item", the receipt, and "rotate view" to find it has an 8 on the back. Click back to room.

Turn around by clicking the far left or far right side of the screen, and notice that the stage has barbed wire on the edge. Click the seats to observe that they have manacles attached. Spooky, eh? :) Click on Judith and talk to her.

To the right of Judith, next to a dark red door, you will see a glittery thing. Click it. You have found a BOTTLE. As with the other three, "view item", bottle, "rotate view" to find it has a 4 on the back. Go back to the room.

Click the dark red door. It should be right next to the Shakespeare bust. Congrats, you have found the 7NK SCRIPT. Click next. Ooh, spooky music! :) Click "view item" to look in it. Notice that on the right page, there are pictures of a PLAQUE, a RECEIPT, a WATCH, and a BOTTLE, along with the numbers that were found on each one. That four digit number is a code that will be used later.

Click back to room. Click on the dark red door again, and click "exit".

You are now in the Dressing Room. You will find Susanna. Speak to her, ask all the questions.

Turn around to see a purple neon sign that says "theatre". To the right of that should be a doorway that was bricked up a while ago. To the right of the bricked-up entrance, underneath two lamps, is a safe. Click it. Highlight the "8888" and instead type "9874". Click "next". You have found the QUOTES BOOK, along with some brandy that you can't click. Click "view item", then go back to the room.

At the very bottom of the screen, you should see the red 7NK script. Click it, then click "next' in the top right corner. You will see some quotes, with question marks covering some of the words. Click the bottom right corner for the Quotes Book. Click the cover to open it.

You will see a list of plays that Shakespeare wrote. Each one links to an information page, stating the setting, a little bit about the play, and some quotes from it. Click "Cymbeline". Scroll down until you reach the quote from Act IV, Scene II. Click and drag that quote to the lowest question mark. It should now read "Look not to light, but search the ground".

Press back in the bottom right of the quotes book. Click "Henry IV (Part II)". Scroll down to the quote from Act III, Scene I. Click and drag it to the second set of question marks. It should now say, "Yet mad, awaiting thee in smoky cribs".

Go back to the plays list in the quotes book, and click "Henry VI (Part I)". Scroll down to the quote from Act II, Scene III. Click and drag to the third question mark. It should now say, "The plot is laid once I am found".

Click back on the quotes book, and then click "turn" in the bottom right corner. Click on "Much Ado About Nothing". Drag the only quote to the first question mark. The whole quote should now read, "Starved of friendship thus I've hid, yet mad, awaiting thee in smoky cribs, the plot is laid once I am found, look not to light, but search the ground." This is a premonition for the second act, so don't worry about it too much.

Turn around to face Susanna, and click the blue door in between the red dress and the suit of mannequins. Click "exit".

You are now in the study. Speak with Richard Burrows. Click to his right to reach Morton's computer. If you want, click the book on the right to discover some news articles, with added writing from Mister Morton himself in red ink.

Click on the computer and click "next" to play a matching mini-game. Allwood matches with Falstaff, Archer matches with Malvolio, Burrows matches with Hamlet, Hatcher matches with Lady Macbeth, Hilton matches with Ophelia, Kent matches with Othello, Morton matches with Julius Caesar, and Quinn matches with Olivia. If the top row of cards from left to right were T1 through T8 and the bottom row from left to right was B1 through B8, the matches would be as follows: T1 and B3, T2 and B6, T3 and B4, T4 and B2, T5 and B5, T6 and B1, T7 and B8, T8 and B7.

You should now have access to Morton's computer. Click on Morton's mailbox. Note that Morton sent two e-mails to Edward Allwood - didn't he say he hadn't been there before? Also note that Morton ordered a great deal of food. Exit the computer and the desk.

Turn around, away from Richard, and notice something glittery in Morton's bookcase. Click it to read his diary. Note that his backer has been holding funds. Also note that one of the Kinsmen - one of the seven actors invited - contacted Morton with a few script ideas. At the very last page there is writing in red that states: "Where is our usual manager of mirth? What revels are in hand? Is there no play to ease the anguish of a torturing hour". This is also a premonition for act two.

Click the blue door by the globe. Suddenly, there will be a large crash. Click "go there now".

Oh no, a murder! Click through the cut scene. In short, Susanna Hilton is now dead. She became "weakened" by the sight of the brandy bottle, went "to the wall" and drank the brandy in the safe, which happened to be laced with poison - the "object poison" that must be "hid from sight", as the script said. She has some more of the 7NK script in her hand. The plot thickens!

There will be a cut scene that recaps a bit of the first act. You will receive new pages to your script. Click next. New locations have been unlocked. Click next again.

You will be in the Dressing Room, facing Susanna's body. Click her to examine the body. You will see something glittering in her pocket. Click it. You have found a CD. You don't have to look at it; just click back. You will also notice a paper under her arm - it says " ‘The weakest goes to the wall' - and you, my dear, are weakest of them all". Click back until you reach the dressing room.

Turn around and go back to the study - the blue door by the red dress. You will find Richard and Judith together. Talk to each of them. Apparently you interrupted something between them. Go to Morton's desk. Click the computer to go to your inventory - click the CD and "use item", then click the computer again. You will be shown the workings of Susanna Hilton's autobiography.
This explains that she and Will used to be lovers, that she hated Anne, and that she hated Quinn. It also shows you that Susanna was angry with Morton for throwing her out of the lead because she drank too much. She explains that one time she was in the bathroom when Quinn and Morton came in, arguing about something. It turns out that Quinn was pregnant at age 45, and was telling Morton she'd get rid of the baby if her part was rewritten to give her more fame. The father is still unknown.
The autobiography also tells you that Richard went insane with 7NK - he was always irritable, cruel, and overall not a nice person. Susanna says she was afraid to be around him.
Once you finish with the information, leave the computer and the room.

Go back into the Theatre. Robert will be sitting there - talk to him. Odd how he didn't show up when Susanna died. He also seems pretty mad at Morton for scarring him, and keeps agonizing over it. Exit to the Dressing Room using the door to the right.

Back at Susanna's body, look to the far left. You should see a brown doorway covered with a blue curtain - click it to leave the dressing room.

In here you will find Will Kent smoking - talk to him. Notice he calls Susanna "Suzie". You will then see a glittery object - click it. You have found a FLASHLIGHT. It will come in handy later. Click back.

Next to where the flashlight was is a scrap of paper, with a phone number on it - 07564 4531. Remember that number for later.

To the left of Anne (the person in the red dress), there is a globe and a chest. Click the chest. Now you will have to play another mini-game. The pot goes to Macbeth, the skull goes to Hamlet, the donkey head goes to Midsummer Night's Dream, the blue stone goes to the Tempest, the snake goes to Anthony and Cleopatra, and the rest stone goes to the merchant of Venice. Click "open box". You have found a TAPE. Click back. You won't be able to use this for a long time, so don't worry about it too much. Click back. Note that there is a large wind turbine to the very far left of the screen. Now turn around.

Speak to Anne, who is taking pictures of the event. She seems to only care about selling this story for more money - she doesn't care that Susanna is dead. You will also notice something glittering, but don't click it. First you need to consult the script.

Click the 7NK script. Notice some more question marks. As in the first act, you need to fill it all in with the quotes book. Click "As You Like It" and scroll down to the Act II, Scene VII quote. Put it in the last slot to reveal a number - seven.

Click back and turn to the next page. Click "Macbeth"; scroll down to the Act I, Scene I quote. Drag it to the third slit to reveal another number - three.

Click back and click "Two Gentlemen of Verona". Drag the name of the play - up at the top - into the second slot. You now have a two.

Click back and click "Romeo and Juliet", right under Two Gentlemen of Verona". Scroll down to the Act II, Scene IV quote and fill it in. The numbers should now read "Noon, Two, Three, Seven". Notice the clock at the top of the page, then exit the quotes book and the script.

Now click on the glittery object on the wall by the exit sign. It turns out to be a clock. Click the clock until the hour hand is at twelve (noon), then press the square button on the bottom-right. Do the same for two, three, and seven. You have found a SEVERED HAND. Eww, gross! Click next. You have also found a CROWBAR. Click back and leave the clock.

Go back into the Dressing Room using the exit right by the clock. Then exit the dressing room and go into the Study.

Click the script and go to the second page. Note how there is a pentagram symbol on the page. Now, click the Act I tab in the top left corner, and go to the second page. Remember the quote? It says "but search the ground". Leave the script. Look at what Richard is standing on - a rug on the ground with a pentagram on it! Click it.

There is a trapdoor under the rug! How intriguing. Click on it, click the crowbar, click "use item", and click the trapdoor again. Click exit.

You will notice many torture instruments on the left wall. In here, talk to Allwood. How did he know where to find the phone AND the trapdoor? Has he been here before, perhaps? To the left of Allwood you will see (from right to left) some stairs, a wooden beam, a water tank, and a Mask of Infamy (it looks kind of like bunny ears). Click above that to turn on the lights.

You will find Morton's decomposed corpse, sitting on a throne with a crown on his head. He is missing several body parts, including his hands - one of which you are carrying. He was starved, mutilated, and tortured for an extended period of time - basically, his body parts were cut off "inch" by "inch". Click next once everyone shows their shock at discovering Morton dead.

There will be a cut scene with a small recap of the last scene. Anne will take a picture of Morton's body, then take the Act Three pages. She looks like she notices something familiar…she then hands them to you. You now have more pages to your script. Click next. New locations have been unlocked. Click next.

You will find yourself in the basement. Click Morton's body to the right of the stairs. You will see he is sitting on some papers - click them.
The first is an account of what the murderer did to torture him - first he cut off an ear, then a tongue, then his *ahem* "region", and finally with his death. Ironically, Morton died on his birthday, just like Shakespeare.
The second is a picture of the cast - Susanna and Morton are crossed out.
The third is a receipt for a coffin.
Click back and leave Morton's body.

To the far right you should see some boxes. Click them. You will find bits of Morton's Diary. It explains that Quinn had an affair with "the boy" (Robert Archer, being the youngest and also for something Judith says later in the game), as well as "the Monarch" Richard Burrows - but "the boy" isn't the father. Guess who is? Morton also wrote that there were many affairs, and they were driving him nearly insane.
He complained that he was rewriting the script often to appease everyone, because they were bickering about whose part was bigger. Anne Hatcher seems to have started logging the arguments, because Morton had to promise to make her part bigger so that she wouldn't leak any of the arguments to the press. He apparently put an anaphrodisiac, bromide, into everyone's tea to keep them from (pardon my crude metaphor) screwing like rabbits, but Anne Hatcher tried to seduce him anyway to get the lead role, claiming it was "quid pro quo" to get the lead role - a.k.a., if Morton slept with her, she expected the lead role. Morton seems to have considered it, but says he denied her advances.
Once you're done, click back.

Next to the boxes are loose papers on the floor - click them. They are postcards addressed to his mother. They explain that Morton decided to stick solely to directing because he was sick of the actors bickering. Will and Susanna's affair reached the public and Morton had to keep the press from beating down the door. Everything went wrong with the play at once - Hilton showed up drunk on opening night, the cast still argued, the rewrites didn't go smoothly, the props messed up, the pyrotechnics didn't work, seats were double-booked or marked as taken when they weren't. Morton grew sick of the press and left the city, going to the Knell. It then shows a picture of a dock, supposedly where Morton left the world behind for the Knell.
Once you're done, click back.

On the far left of the screen are some more boxes - click those. It will show you some letters. The first explains that Morton kept running out of funds because his mysterious backer stopped sending him money, and the building was almost left half-finished. It also shows that the murderer (Morton's "Noble Kinsman") tried to give Morton some ideas to the plot.
Once you're done, click back.

Leave this room via the stairs and enter the study. Turn around to find Richard. Talk to him. Richard is apparently in complete shock over Christopher. Leave for the dressing room.

Turn around to find Allwood. Talk to him. He apparently was the backer that stopped sending Morton payments. He is also starting to obsess over getting out. Once you are done speaking to him, turn back around and go to the theatre (not the stage).

In here, turn around and speak to Judith. Once you are done, turn back around and exit to the Foyer.

Speak to Anne Hatcher. She seems to get mad if you mention Act Three… did she recognize something? She also notes that one of the remaining cast members has to be the killer. When you're done speaking to her, turn around. Notice that Archer's portrait has been torn from the frame on the wall. Now click the script.

Click the quotes book and add the King Lear quote as you have with all the previous quotes - "The wheel has come full circle". Note that there is no scene number by the "As You Like It" prompt; looks like you'll have to find it. Exit the quote book and the script to open a new location - the Balcony (also called the Circle). Click just below the rightmost chandelier to enter the Balcony.

You'll notice Robert here - speak to him. He seems desperate now that you've told him Morton is dead. He also thinks Allwood knows more than he's telling everyone. Once you are done, click the glittering object by the wooden bucket to the left of Robert. You have found a HAIRPIN. Click back.

Turn around so you're facing the seats. You will see something glittering on the ground. You have found a CELL PHONE. You won't need to use it until later, though. Click back.

Click and read the script. As the script says, "Turn To Face the Actor's Home, look to thee and think of Rome". Do what it says - turn around to face the Stage (the actor's home). Click the right curtain of the stage. You will find some BINOCULARS. Click the binoculars, then click the pillars. They look like a Roman numeral seven… hm. Think of Rome? Click back once it says the script is updated.

Click the script, and add the missing quote from line 152. It should now say something about a cannon's mouth. Let's go see if we can find a cannon! Exit the script, turn around, and leave for the Foyer.

Turn around and go to the lower level of the Theatre. Turn around and go into the Dressing room. Then turn around and go onto the stage.

Turn around on the stage to face the pillars. You should see a yellowish glow coming from backstage. Click it and exit.

In here you will find Will. Speak to him. He seems depressed over Susanna's death, as well as Morton's, stating he'll "get whoever did this". To the left of will should be a yellow piece of paper on the floor, by some shelves. Click it to read about the financial reasons why Allwood and Hatcher might have committed the crime. Once you're done, click back and click the cupboard with four square holes lined up. It should be right above the "Who's Who" pamphlet.

Yay, another matching mini-game! Now you have to match each play with its category. You must put them in the categories the SCRIPT says, however. Apparently "Julius Caesar" isn't a historical play, even though it's about a Roman emperor…
Romance: The Tempest
Tragedy: Julius Caesar, Romeo & Juliet
Comedy: As You Like It, Midsummer Night's Dream, Much Ado About Nothing
Historical: King John, Richard III.
You will find a piece of paper that says something written by the killer - it is different for each one. Click next. You have found some NIGHT-VISION GOGGLES. These will be used later. Click back and leave the cupboard.

Turn around and notice that there's a cannon here! Don't click it just yet, though. Click the black briefcase next to the cannonballs to find it is locked. Use the HAIRPIN on the briefcase by clicking it, the hairpin, "use item", and clicking the briefcase again. You will find Morton's tongue, along with a piece of paper that says, "Done to death by slanderous tongues". Icky! Click back.

Click the cannon, and the glittery paper in the mouth of the cannon (as the script says). It will show you part of a map with some writing that says, "Sits the wind in that corner?" with a red X. Hmm. Where did we see that turbine? Click back, and exit to the stage.

Click the turbine. Anne Hatcher will angrily tell you the "prize is hers". A spotlight will fall on her, killing her instantly. Everyone will be in shock, but most of them mutter "good riddance". She stole a bit of the third act script - the map - and hid it in the cannon so that she could get the exclusive. Everyone hated her because of her "slanderous tongue", and she paid the ultimate price - she was killed.

There will be a cut scene that recaps a bit of the third act. You will receive new pages to your script. Click next. New locations have been unlocked. Click next again.

Click Anne's body. To the right will be a white card - click it and note she would have been paid 100,000 pounds for her "exclusive". Click back, and click her digital camera to the left. The pictures in order are: the theatre, Judith and Richard talking intimately, Robert Kent staring at a mirror horrified, a room full of computers (you'll see this later), the stage from the balcony, Judith and Richard arguing. Click back.

Judith will be to her right. Click her and talk to her. Judith explains she is not too sad about Anne's passing. She will also confess that she has wanted to be a mother, but the one time she was pregnant Robert pushed her during rehearsals. When you're done speaking to her, turn around and head backstage.

In here, speak to Allwood. He will confess that he HAS been here before - he was Morton's backer and this place used to belong to his grandparents. When you're done speaking to him, turn around and exit.

Turn around and leave for the dressing room. In here, find that Susanna's body is missing - and Will Kent is standing there. Speak with him. He seemed not to realize Susanna's body was gone until it disappeared. Once you are done speaking to him, leave for the theatre - the study is now locked for good.

In here you will find Richard. Speak with him. He will admit he's not too sad about Hatcher's death. He'll also admit he's bitter about Morton making him the villain, saying his role is "the most foulest of creations". Once you are done, leave for the dressing room, then the stage.

On the stage, click the doors by the turbine and three daggers on the wall. Leave for that room. In here you will find Archer. Speak to him. He says that when he gets out of here, he'll sell this story to get an operation on his eye in the US. When you're done, look at the TV on the far left of the screen. Use the TAPE on the TV. Morton will be on it, stating (at gunpoint) that this is the last production that any of the cast will be in. He also states that everyone "took the bait" and will die tragically. It then shows a knife that he was killed with. Leave the TV once you are done.

To the immediate right of Archer will be a phonograph on a table. Click it, and click the drawer to find Morton's severed ear. Ewwwww! Click back.

To the far right of the screen will be a skeleton. Click it and click the papers on its neck to reveal some medical records, and reasons why Richard, Judith, and Robert might by the killer. Click back to the room.

Turn around to face an old kitchen, a fireplace, and a safe on the wall. To the far right is half of Morton's will - the bottom half seems to be missing. There is something glittering under the stove - click it. You found a MAGNET. Click back to go to the room. Click the sink to reveal blood stains - this is where the murderer washed their hands. Also note that in the fireplace there is a metal box, but the fire is too hot to reach it. Go back to the room and turn around.

Take out your script, and fill in the quotes. You should now have the words "touch", "sundial", "east", and "stone". Go to the next page and click "King John", dragging the name as before. It should now say "King John will keep you safe". Exit the script and click the sundial.

Click the sundial once so that the needle is pointing east. Then click the white square immediately underneath the south. A secret entrance will open up in the wall. Click next. Enter the doorway to reach the Ante Room.

Note the empty coffin here. Click the altar. You will see something glittering on the alter - take it. You have found HOLY WATER. Click back, turn around, exit up the steps, and go to the fireplace. Use the HOLY WATER on the fire to put it out, then click the glittering box. You will discover a pamphlet. Open it. The person mentioned on the left side of the page is the killer. Click back to exit, and go back in the Ante Room.

Turn around and click to the right of the stairs. Yay, yet ANOTHER mini-game. This time you have to click and drag flags to the countries the plays were set in. Measure for Measure was in Vienna, Much Ado About Nothing was in Sicily, Midsummer Night's Dream was in Athens, Julius Caesar was in Rome, Richard III was in England, Hamlet was in Denmark, and Macbeth was in Scotland. Click OK at the bottom left of the screen. Scotland will open to reveal a MEMORY CARD. It will automatically update onto your PDA. Turn around and click the altar.

Click the bible. You will see writing that says "Matthew, Mark, Like, and John. Your task is to find the one." As the script said, John was the luck one. Click until you reach the very back of the bible. Note that one verse - John 10, Verse 10 - states "The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy". This code - 1010 - opens the safe on the wall in Morton's room. Leave the bible and the altar, turn around, and exit.

Go to the safe and enter the code 1010. Click next. You have found a KNIFE - the very same that Morton was killed with. Click back. Also note the gun in the safe. Click back.

There will be a scream coming from the Ante Room. Go there. There will be a cut scene. Basically, Robert put on a mask that happened to be lined with spring-loaded needles, tipped with poison acid. They stabbed him in the eyes - the fastest way to ingest poison, as Richard so kindly points out. Robert obsessed over his looks more than anyone else in the cast - "A Pretty Piece of Flesh Am I" was his mentality, even with the scar. He died because of his vanity.

As with all the other acts, there will be a small recap. You will get new pages, but this time no new places will be unlocked. You can no longer access the Foyer or the Balcony.

Click on Robert's body. He will be lying on his portrait that was taken from the Foyer in act three. Leave his body and exit the Ante Room.

Click the safe. Notice the gun in the safe is now missing. Turn around and speak to Edward. He seems scared out of his mind, but admits that he's sad about Robert's death. He also seems to suspect either Richard or Will. Turn around and leave for the stage.

Speak to Will. He is freaking out because he is only 30 years old and does not want to die. He now has the gun, and says he'll be ready if anyone tries to attack him. He also states that everyone here will be immortalized if they die or escape, because this is a slaughterhouse and will sell well back in civilization. When you're done, exit to Backstage.

You will find Richard here. Speak to him. He states that he and Judith were once very much in love. He thinks Edward is the killer. He seems to be freaking out, reciting random quotes from Hamlet while clutching a skull. Once you are done, turn around and leave for the stage, then to the dressing room.

Speak with Judith. She thinks Richard is the killer, because he is "a sadist, a lunatic, and god knows what else". She is trying to be calm, reading an original folio that Morton just happened to have around. She is memorizing lines for "Winter's Tale" - apparently she is Hermione, a mother figure. She also confesses she was a "Mrs. Robinson" - she did indeed have an affair with Robert Archer. Leave and go straight to the Ante Room.

Turn around to face the stairs, and click the script. Fill in the quote - it should now say "in France amongst a fickle wavering nation". Hmm, where have we seen France? Exit the script book and click the map to the right of the stairs, where you played the flag mini-game.

Click France to find a switch. Click the switch to reveal ANOTHER secret room, underneath the coffin. Click back and turn around, clicking the stairs under the coffin.

You are now in the computer room that Anne photographed. Before you click the computer, turn around. Note the bloodstain on the right wall, and click the paper on the left table. Everyone is crossed out except Edward, Judith, Richard, and Will. Click the gold object to the left of the paper once you're done. This is the Slide Puzzle - it's beneficial if you finish it, but is not necessary. You should either get a crown, a beanstalk, or two drama faces on the back. The significance will be explained later.

Leave the slide puzzle and turn to the computer. The screen should be blinking, "Verify ID". Right next to that should be a small, white rectangle. Use the CELL PHONE on it to read the messages. Once done, leave it.

There should be a black phone on the desk, next to the cell phone dock. Click it. Cycle through the messages. The first two are about delayed payments, the third is someone calling the undertaker, and the last is a message to Morton that states the ‘visitor' (killer) came late to meet him. Leave once you're done.

To the left of that should be a blue handprint. It's a biometric scan machine. Use the SEVERED HAND (finally) on the machine; it will scan it. You will get a scrambled-up password: the letters should spell out "jcaesar", Morton's username on the computer in his study. Type it in and click enter. The computer will turn on, also turning on the security system.

Now, this is the confusing part. There are ten total screens that, when clicked, show scenes that have been recorded by secret cameras; you have to watch six of them to move on. I will explain what each one shows so you can pick ones of interest to you.
The first "set" of cameras:

The second "set" of cameras:

Suddenly the security system will alert you to an intruder. The camera will show Edward being chased by a pack of dogs, attacked, and finally killed by them, with the portcullis smashing into his back on top of him. The "dogs of war" have been unleashed. Let the last act begin.

There will be a recap. The passage lights will go out. You will get the last pages of the script. You will not be able to access the foyer or the study; now you can only reach the rooms from the theatre on.

You will automatically turn on your NIGHT-VISION GOGGLES. Click the pamphlet on the floor to figure out a bit more about the remaining three - of these, one is the killer. Click back.

Go to Edward's body. Use the handy-dandy MAGNET on the object stuck behind the portcullis. This is the next clue that tells you who the killer is - you should have found an earring, a euro coin, or a lighter. Leave Edward's body and turn around.

On the far right should be a cylinder. Click it. The last mini-game! You need to take the names (right) and match them to the quote (left) by clicking the middle triangle.
"Here's to my love" - Romeo, "The rest is silence" - Hamlet, "Et tu, Brute?" - Julius Caesar, "Yea noise?" - Juliet, "A horse!" - Richard III, "As sweet as balm" - Cleopatra. Ironically, these are the last words of each of the characters before they die a tragic, gruesome death. When you complete the puzzle you will find the last half of MORTON'S WILL. Click back.

This part is a bit tricky, but it gives you the next clue to the killer. To the left of the cylinder is a book. Look past the book until you reach a wall. That wall should have the shadow of a chain on it, making an inverted cross shape. Go to the bottom-right corner of the wall and you should see a white object. Click it. You should now be at a pack of cards. Click the card sticking out from underneath the deck - this is the third clue to the killer. You should have either a Joker, an Ace of Hearts, or a King of Spades.

To the left of the cards is the exit. Leave; there's nothing else for you to do here. You will be in the chapel. Turn around to speak to Will. He will be stealing some gold coins from the altar, saying, "Morton doesn't need them". He will again state that everyone here will gain immortality because everyone is dying in terrible ways. He suspects the other two. Once you're done talking to him, go to the dressing room.

In here, talk to Judith. She will admit that she is the last of the Quinn line, and that she's afraid it will end here. She will explain that the new Richard is frightening, and kills off everyone in the old play. She suspects the other two, but Richard more than Will. Once done, leave for the theatre.

In here, speak with Richard. He will be reciting cryptic Hamlet quotes again. He explains that he never had Morton's version of Hamlet, and also notes that killers always kill until they themselves are killed. He suspects Will is behind all this. Once done, leave for the computer room.

In here, note that the CCTV system is destroyed, and the wall now says "Doomsday is near, die all merrily, die". Turn around and face the table with the slide puzzle and newspaper. Underneath it will be a glittering object. Click it. You have found a MAGNIFYING GLASS. Click back, and leave for the chapel.

Click the script and go to the back page. Note that the very last page is missing. Read the quote at the top of the left page: "Get thee glass eyes, and like a scurvy politician, seem to see the things thou dost not." This means you must use your newfound MAGNIFYING GLASS. Just above Robert's body should be a painting with two figures. Click it, and use the MAGNIFYING GLASS on it. Drag it to the very bottom corner of the painting, and you should find the last clue. Click on the picture within a picture. You will either have a skull, an ankh, or a clown. Now click back, and go up the stairs to Morton's room.

In here, turn around and click on the first half of Morton's will. Use the second half of

on it. It will state that Morton left half of his estate to none other than you. Click back.

The PA system will suddenly crackle to life, and ask you to go to the stage for "one last performance". Go there.

There will be a cut scene - a feast is laid out for the four of you (you, Richard, Judith, Will). Morton's hand will be on a platter holding a piece of paper. You will suddenly realize you are poisoned. Click next.

The PA system will speak again. It will tell everyone at the table that they are poisoned. There will be a cutscene that shows everyone's shock. Now you must name the killer.
If you received the Drama Faces sliding puzzle, the euro, the King of Spades, and the Skull in the painting, your killer is

If you received the Beanstalk sliding puzzle, the lighter, the Joker, and the Clown in the painting, your killer is

If you received the Crown sliding puzzle, the earring, the Ace of Hearts, and the Ankh in the painting, your killer is

If you guess incorrectly the PA system will announce, "I'm afraid you are… INCORRECT! Ha ha, after all your hard work, goodbye" and you will die. You may click "play again" to replay ALL of act six. If you guess correctly, the killer will say, "Congratulations. You guessed correctly. I will allow you to survive." Click next, and the other two will die.

You will now be taken through all the evidence you found that pointed to the killer. All the things he or she said, the newspapers and letters that you found, the things that other people said, etcetera. Click next until you hear police sirens.

The killer will then say they have called the police and have framed you for everything. He amended Morton's diary to make it look like you were involved in writing the plot.The knife in your suitcase - the one he or she killed Morton with - now has your fingerprints on it. You led Susanna straight to the poison. You knew where to find Morton. You gave Anne the 7NK script, which led her to her death that only you observed. You opened the door to the chapel, which led Robert to the poisoned mask. You switched on the security system - causing Edward to die. The killer will then explain WHY they did it - Richard states it's because he never fully grasped the concept of his last character until he killed them all like in the play, Judith states that she "cannot give life, but can take it away", and Will states that each and every one of the Kinsmen, as well as yourself, ruined his career. Then the killer will die, and the police will apprehend you for the murders. Hopefully with the 7NK script and the evidence in the house you can prove yourself innocent. :) The screen will say "THE END", and you may click next to play again if you so choose.
