Guide to finding the Melted Iron Key in The Sinking City 2. Learn where to look and what steps to take to acquire this important item for your progression.
Walkthrough
- 1Charon Ship Investigation: Collect key evidence: your belongings (briefcase containing a Letter from J. van der Berg), the Camera, and the Pistol. To collect the pistol, examine its handle until an eyeball symbol appears. Also collect additional evidence: a photo of the mounted fish (using the camera) and the flyer on the desk. Lootable objects like lockers can be repeatedly searched for ammo and crafting materials.
- 2Optional: Titania Lifeboat Investigation: After speaking with Robert Throgmorton, return to the pier sign. Go left down a path, then left towards the sea. Inspect the Lifeboat Name "TITANIA", the Diving Helmet (rotate to search the front faceplate, be mindful of sanity drain), and Albert Throgmorton's will. Climbing inside the lifeboat is necessary for some evidence.
Tips
- The Submachine Gun and Skill Point are DLC bonuses. The Skill Point is recommended for the "Absolute Clarity" Mind skill for a 5% XP bonus.
- Reloading your gun is done by equipping it and pressing Square.
- Lootable object contents are randomized but reset upon leaving and returning to the area. Larger supplies may indicate a more dangerous area.
- Conversations with NPCs like Johannes van der Berg and Robert Throgmorton offer world-building but are not critical for game progression, though specific dialogue choices advance the main objectives.
- The Titania Lifeboat is an optional investigation that grants extra XP and an additional conversation with Robert Throgmorton if Albert's Will is returned to him.
