Follow our comprehensive guide to successfully navigate the Faulty Wires section in Eriksholm: The Stolen Dream, including collectible locations and stealth strategies.
Walkthrough
- 1In the boiler room, collect the note on the table and the poster collectible (Rosmark’s Gate and Bastion) on the wall. Exit through the door after waiting for the guard to pass.
- 2After speaking with Aunt Mary, climb the ladder to the attic.
- 3In the attic, hide behind boxes. Wait for a guard to investigate the trap door, then sneak past him and enter the vent on the left.
- 4In the workshop, wait in the vent until guards move. Cross behind cover to the right, then down the stairs, navigating around metal grates. Look through the window to see the red crank wheel, then exit into the engine room.
- 5In the engine room, hide behind the big wheel. Wait for the second guard to pass, then move to the red crank wheel. Hide behind the middle wall and interact with the crank to turn on the machine, masking noise.
- 6Immediately sneak up the stairs to the upper grate area. Cross the grate while the wheel is on. Use moving boxes to reach the ladder on the right.
- 7On the rooftops, climb the ledge to the left. Continue across the rooftops and collect the note on the vent.
- 8Vault over the gate to the left. Continue to the next rooftop and descend ladders to the ground floor.
- 9In the repair shop, walk right past the truck and down the stairs. Collect the 'Apple Gardens Travel Guide' collectible on the platform up the ladder on the left.
- 10Backtrack to where you climbed down from the rooftops. Past the birds, vault over the gate to the left after distracting the guard by walking near the birds.
- 11Grab the note on the table just behind the gate you vaulted over.
- 12Enter the next open doorway. Quickly run across the yard to the left (hold Shift and press M1) to get past the first revolving guard.
- 13Walk down the wooden walkway past the second revolving guard when his back is turned.
- 14Grab the note on the barrel near the vault gate.
- 15Climb over the gate to the left. Navigate through the wine storage area. Drop down from the upper platform or take the stairs, move around the corner, climb the ledge, and enter the vent.
- 16Inside the vent, enter the warehouse and collect the note and the 'Madame Cecilia' collectible.
- 17Exit the warehouse back to the wine storage deck. Wait for patrols, then cross toward the left side where birds are on the roof.
- 18Step toward the birds to make noise and distract guards. Exit the area and walk around the guards to the back right side. Vault over the gate and head toward the stairs.
- 19Grab the note on a crate at the bottom of the stairs.
- 20Choose one of the two paths forward, both containing collectibles.
