Complete walkthrough for Salvation Harbor (West) in The Sinking City 2. Find key evidence, optional items, and navigate conversations with NPCs to progress the investigation.
Walkthrough
- 1On the "Charon" Ship:
- Collect Key Evidence: Your belongings on the table (briefcase, camera, pistol). Examine the pistol by rotating it until the eyeball symbol appears on the handle and press X.
- 2Collect Additional Evidence: Take a photo of the fish trophy on the wall with your camera. Examine the flyer on the desk.
- 3Lootable Objects: Search the locker to the right of the desk for ammunition and crafting materials. Lootable contents are randomized and reset upon leaving and returning to the area.
- 4Exit the boat by climbing onto the dock (Triangle).
- 5Speak with Johannes van der Berg: Select dialogue options to advance the conversation: "About my problem.", "Where is Robert Throgmorton?", "I need somewhere to stay.", "How do I get to Devil's Reef?", "Goodbye.". Note that choosing specific options locks out others.
- 6Proceed north along the pier to a sign with directions. Turn right and go up the stairs to speak with Robert Throgmorton.
- 7Speak with Robert Throgmorton: Select dialogue options to advance the game: "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.", "I'll be going.". Optional questions can be asked, but selecting "I'll be going." ends the conversation.
- 8Titania Lifeboat (Optional Investigation):
- Return to the sign with directions. Go left down a path, then left toward the sea. The lifeboat is beyond police barricades.
- 9Collect Additional Evidence: Inspect the Lifeboat Name "TITANIA". Rotate the Diving Helmet and search its front faceplate. Find Albert Throgmorton's will on a seat inside the lifeboat.
- 10Note: While examining the diving helmet, your sanity will drain. Climbing inside the lifeboat requires the Triangle button.
- 11Completing this optional investigation grants 140 XP and unlocks an additional conversation with Robert Throgmorton.
