Learn how to test Bruno's crystal skull for authenticity in Skull & Bones. Follow our guide to navigate the mansion and uncover the truth.

Alright, so you've landed in New Orleans and it's time to check out this whole Bruno's crystal skull situation. Your friend Ned asked you to visit his pal Henry Bolet, who's dealing with some spooky stuff after his great-uncle passed. First things first, you'll head over to the Bolet Mansion. Ned's already given Henry a heads-up you're coming.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Once you've sorted out Nancy's desk and picked your detective level (Junior or Senior), the game kicks off with Nancy approaching the Bolet Mansion. Just point your cursor at the door and click. You'll hear a knock, and the door will swing open on its own.
  2. 2
    Nancy walks inside, calls out, and notices some footprints on the floor. She'll then move towards the opening into the great room on the right. As she looks in, she'll spot a figure with their back to her. After she speaks, the figure turns around – it's a creepy 'skeleton man' in a top hat and ascot! A lightning flash and thunder crash, the lights go out, and when they flicker back on, the skeleton man is right in front of Nancy. He throws something that explodes into powder, knocking her out.
  3. 3
    When Nancy wakes up, she sees Renee Amande, who offers her a green drink. It's probably best to refuse it – it doesn't look like something Nancy would want. Henry's voice can be heard from off-screen, insisting no doctor or police be called.
  4. 4
    After Renee leaves, stand up and turn around. Henry will be at his desk, facing away from you. Talk to him about everything, and let him know you're going to figure out who the skeleton man is and why he knocked you out. Henry will reluctantly agree to let you investigate.
  5. 5
    Library: Henry's desk is in the corner to the left of some glass doors leading outside. To his left is a library card catalog – these details will be important later. Next to that is a trophy display. Pick up the trophies; they're for miniature models. When you grab one, you'll hear something rolling inside. Open it up to find a glass eye! The other walls are covered in bookshelves. Some books can be examined now, but you can't do anything with them yet. To the left of the trophy display are the doors leading back to the hallway.
  6. 6
    Great Room: Exit the library and turn left, then left again into the great room where you first saw the skeleton man. Directly across from the entrance is a miniature model of a cemetery. This is where the skeleton man was standing. Head over to the model.
Tips
  • Pay close attention to the library card catalog details; they'll be crucial for later puzzles.
  • The miniature cemetery model is important – make sure to examine it thoroughly.
  • Don't be afraid to talk to Henry about everything; he holds key information.
