Follow our comprehensive walkthrough for 'A Frosty Welcome' in The Sinking City 2, detailing key evidence, optional objectives, and character interactions.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    'Charon' Ship Investigation: This is your first investigation location. Collect key evidence: your belongings (briefcase), the Letter from J. van der Berg, the Camera, and the Pistol (examine the handle by rotating it until an 'eyeball' symbol appears, then press X). Additional evidence includes a Photo of a trophy plate (use the camera on the fish) and a Flyer (examine on the desk). Lootable objects like lockers can be repeatedly searched for ammo and crafting materials.
  2. 2
    Conversation with Johannes van der Berg: After leaving the ship, you'll speak with Johannes. To progress, select: 'About my problem,' 'Where is Robert Throgmorton?,' 'I need somewhere to stay,' 'How do I get to Devil's Reef?,' and 'Goodbye.'
  3. 3
    Finding Robert Throgmorton: Proceed north along the pier and turn right at the sign. Stairs lead to Robert Throgmorton.
  4. 4
    Conversation with Robert Throgmorton: To advance, select: 'What happened to your son?,' 'Who are the Innsmouthers?,' 'What do you know about the visions?,' 'I can try to find Albert,' 'Tell me more about the case,' and 'I'll be going.'
  5. 5
    Optional: Titania Lifeboat (Optional Investigation): Return to the sign, go left down a path, then left towards the sea. Find the lifeboat beyond police barricades. Evidence includes: inspecting the 'TITANIA' name, examining the Diving Helmet (rotate and search the front faceplate, be mindful of sanity drain), and finding Albert Throgmorton's will on a seat. Climbing inside the lifeboat (Triangle) is necessary for some items.
  6. 6
    Returning Albert's Will: After finding the will, return to Robert Throgmorton to unlock an optional conversation.
Tips
  • Collecting all evidence in a location grants an additional 140 XP.
  • The Necronomicon Edition or DLC includes a Submachine Gun and .45 ABP rounds; use these sparingly due to high ammo consumption.
  • Consider investing a Skill Point into 'Absolute Clarity' for a 5% XP bonus.
  • Lootable objects reset when you leave and return to an area, allowing for repeated scavenging of ammo and crafting materials.
  • The Titania Lifeboat is optional but provides extra XP and an additional conversation with Robert Throgmorton.
  • XP bonuses for collecting all evidence.
  • Access to optional conversations and lore.
  • Potential for additional loot from reset lootable objects.
