This guide covers stealth mechanics and tips for Eriksholm: The Stolen Dream, focusing on navigating through guarded areas, using environmental distractions, and collecting hidden items.

Boiler Room: After escaping through the vent, find a note on a table and collectible 1 (Rosmark’s Gate and Bastion) on a hanging poster. Wait for the guard outside the window, then exit. After talking to Aunt Mary, climb the ladder.

Attic: Hide behind boxes as two guards enter. Wait for one to check the trap door, then sneak past him. Enter another vent on the left.

Workshop: Observe guards from the vent. Wait for the guard near the metal grates to exit. Carefully navigate around the metal grates, avoiding noise. Look through the window to see the red crank controlling the wheel. Exit into the engine room.

Steam Engine: Wait for a guard to walk onto the metal grate. Hide behind the big wheel. Once the second guard passes, move to the red crank wheel area. Hide behind the middle wall. Interact with the crank to turn on the machine, masking sound. Immediately 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 without being seen.

The Rooftops: Climb the ledge. Be aware that birds make noise and can be used as distractions. Find a note on a vent. Vault over the gate to the left. Continue to the next rooftop and ladders leading to the ground floor.

Repair Shop: Walk past the truck and down the stairs. You are safe near non-guard characters. Find a collectible (Apple Gardens Travel Guide) on a platform up a ladder on the left. Backtrack and go left from where you climbed down. Use the birds on the steel roofs to distract the guard facing away from the path. Vault over the gate to the left. Grab a note on a table behind the gate.

The Pub: Enter the next doorway and quickly run across the yard to the left (hold Shift + M1) to avoid a revolving guard. Wait for the next revolving guard's back to be turned, then walk down the wooden walkway. Find a note on a barrel near the vault gate. Climb over the gate. Look through the window into the warehouse. Navigate through the wine storage area by dropping down or taking stairs. Move around the corner to a brick wall with a picture. Climb the ledge and enter the vent.

Inside the vent, enter the warehouse and collect a note and a collectible (Madame Cecilia). Exit back to the wine storage deck. Wait for patrols, then cross toward the left where birds are on the roof. Step toward the birds to alert guards, then quickly exit and walk around them to the back right. Vault over the gate and continue to the stairs. Find a note on a crate at the bottom of the stairs. There are two paths with collectibles; explore both.

Achievements: - Escape Artist: Escape the Cutter's Hill interiors. - Fowl Play: Evade a guard with the help of birds (first collectible in Chapter 1).
