Navigate The Sinking City 2's 'Guidance Note' section with our comprehensive walkthrough. Learn how to find clues, solve puzzles, and progress through the game's challenging narrative.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Fred's Demand: Head to the Oakmont Chronicle to research coded advertisements. The correct research choices are: PERIOD - AFTER THE FLOOD, PEOPLE - JOURNALISTS, SECTION - ADVERTISEMENTS, DISTRICT - SALVATION HARBOR.
  2. 2
    Toothless Bob's Wake: After researching, an advertisement will lead you to the Seven Oaks Bar in Western Salvation Harbor, located at the intersection of Calmshore St and Salvation Rd.
  3. 3
    Seven Oaks Bar: Speak with the Bartender. Choose the dialogue options: "I'm looking to leave the city." -> "I came for Toothless Bob's wake." -> "I worked for Throgmorton." (or "Maybe I can do you a favor?") -> "Farewell."
  4. 4
    A Favor for the Bartender: The bartender will give you a side mission to check on a courier. The courier's last known location is Western Grimhaven Bay, Levi Coffin Ave, near the intersection with Marsh Ave. Approach from the northeast to avoid infested areas.
  5. 5
    Courier's Final Destination: Investigate the warehouse. Expect Wylebeasts (Stygians, Lethians, Cocitians). Cocitians are vulnerable on their back bulges after they lunge.
  6. 6
    Key Evidence: In the basement, find: Wheel tracks, Blood Stains, Skeleton (tied to a pipe), Gas Can (on a crate), and Whiskey bottles (behind an illusory wall).
  7. 7
    Retrocognition: After finding all evidence, use Mind's Eye near the bottom of the stairs to trigger the next event.
Tips
  • Be prepared for combat when entering the warehouse, as Wylebeasts can spawn in various rooms.
  • The Cocitians are tough; focus fire on their back bulges after they perform their lunging attack.
  • The illusory wall in the basement hides additional evidence (whiskey bottles).
