  19. 19
    Continue to the right and remove the character from the rope. Pull the box left, positioning it between the gap above so characters can safely drop down.
  20. 20
    Move all three characters onto the weighted floor lever to proceed.
Tips
  • When positioning characters for the bell and levers, one character will automatically move to a new checkpoint, so focus on the two active characters.
  • The box moved in step 19 is crucial for characters to safely descend the gap.
  • Ensure all three characters are on the weighted floor lever to progress after moving the box.
  • Achievement/Trophy: Shoplifting (Saw a postcard stolen from the Gift Shop) - 5 points.
  • Items: Fuse, Cave Painting (x2), Trinket (x3), Postcard.
