Walkthrough: Secret Files 2: Puritas Cordis




notes:

This is a point-and-click adventure game.

The cursor indicates possible interactions with people and objects.

Drag items from the inventory onto other items to combine them, or to a person or an object on the screen to use / discuss them.

Use the magnifying glass (SnoopKey) to highlight objects and action points on the screen.

Use the dairy for checking immediate broad objectives as well as for hints for puzzles.

Right clicking skips segments / dialogues.

The game allows multiple saves. You can use the computer icon or CTRL+S to save.

The game is overall linear and does not allow wrong usage of items. Characters cannot die, and while the game is remarkably bug-free, it is recommended to save often to avoid replaying large sequences.


walkthrough:

Chapter 1: Introduction

The game starts with a movie that shows Brother Matthew of the Parish Church of St. Mary the Virgin being stalked by unknown entities as he leaves the church for the night. Soon, he is shot by two men in combat gear, who are looking for a parchment supposed to be in his possession.

The scene shifts to Christ’s College at the University of Cambridge, where Bishop Parrey is studying a manuscript sent by Brother Matthew. He gets a call from Superintendent Falk of Ashton CID, informing him of Matthew’s fate and warning him. He gets up the close a window and sees the men in combat gear outside his door.

Pick up the book on the desk.

Read the sheet on the desk: Seems William Patterson and Lucie Forrester have both reserved the book.

Parrey wants to hide the manuscript so that only Patterson finds it.

Put the manuscript in the book.

Put the book in the bookshelf – fourth row from the top, in the gap amidst the red books.

Leave the room by the door next to the bookshelf.

Open the door to the left using Parrey’s keys.

Look at the lecture schedule on the wall.

Mini-game: To ensure that Patterson gets the book before Forrester in the morning.

Solution:
Move Patterson to the 9:30 AM slot so he can pick up the book before his lecture. Move Forrester to the 7:30 slot so she is busy with her lecture and cannot pick up the book before Patterson.

Turn the sign thrice to the left till it is aligned with the beam.

Return to statue and take the spirit level.

Place the spirit level on the signpost to continue the beam.

The beam is now interrupted by the snack stand.

Talk to the Chinese man inside the stand. He cannot move the stand because of contract issues.

Return to the screen with the surveyor.

Use the pocket knife the remove the rock slide sign.

Go to the screen with the trailer.

Use the pocket knife the remove the parking sign.

Put the rock slide sign in the place of the parking sign.

Return to the surveyor and warn him about his car. He isn’t bothered because his horoscope said that day held no troubles for him.

Go to snack stand.

Use the pocket knife on fortune cookies till you get a message about heeding one’s neighbour’s bad luck. I got mine on the third cookie.

Ask the Chinese man to bake you a cookie with that message inside.

Take the new fortune cookie to the surveyor.

Talk to him again about his car. This time, he moves it.

Place the shiny cup amidst the rocks.

Talk to the surveyor. He clears the rubble.

Use the ring on the door to open the exposed chamber.

Look at the panel with the discs. The diary gives a hint.

Mini-game: To align the vacant areas of the discs.

Solution:
This is a simple puzzle.

First, use the right button to set the discs so that the right disc’s opening comes at 11 o clock.

Then, use the middle button to set the top and left discs such that the top disc’s opening comes below the right disc’s opening. You won’t be able to see it because the left disc is yet not aligned.

Now use the left button to set the left disc so all three openings overlap to reveal a niche.

Take the ring from the niche.

Look at the wooden board on top of the wine barrel.

Place Sister Elise’s diagram on the board.

Place the ring in the indentation to activate the board.

Korrel informs you that the statue is of St. Austrebert of Rouen.

Mini-game: To spell the word Austrebert on the wooden board.

Solution:
The alphabets need to be keyed in the right order to spell Austrebert.

Which key can be pressed after which one depends on the lines connecting them or not as per Sister Elise’s diagram. Solving this took me a little while because I assumed that each key can be pressed only once, but that’s not the case. Then, the puzzle becomes really simple.

Watch the cut-scenes.


Chapter 7: Meanwhile, in Paris

Take the blue stone from the pillar. It shows a white king.

Look at the emblem: INSTITIO VIAE EST FINIS

Try to leave the hole.

Watch the cut-scene.

Take the candle and stick from the compost heap.

Go right to the cemetery.

Mini-game: To find Michel’s grave.

Solution:
The clues to make the right road choices are given during the homeless man’s conversation, and summarised in the diary.

The cardinal died in 1663, and curator Michel ten years after that, so check in graves from 1670s.

Since Michel was found in his squalid basement flat, he can be assumed to be poor.

Since Michel served the cardinal for forty years and died ten after, he clearly died old.

Michel was always heavily covered up, because he was a woman named Michelle!

Note the way the words Saint-Maillefert is written.

Return to the ruins and re-enter the hole.

Mini-game: To open the secret door using the emblem.

Solution:
Rotate the alphabets S, A and F in the emblem the way Saint-Maillefert was written:

INSTITIO VIAE EST FINIS

Click here to see the solution. Make sure the “S” is right-side up when you finish rotating.

Enter the passage.

Now go to the park. Go near the water.

Use the noisemaker again. The ducks are here!

Go to the zoo, to the bridge beside the crocodile enclosure, and use the noisemaker again.

Mini-game: Solve the riddle.

Solution:
To figure out the three digit number. The diary gives a hint on this puzzle.

First digit: Between 1 to 5, the number is NOT in the cell - 5
(The cell has 1 chair, 2 bunks, 3 coat hooks and the chair has 4 legs)

Second digit: Odd number larger than 1, has Nina trapped - 9
(The bars on the window above)

Third digit: Even number, all can stand but not all can walk - 6
(The chair’s 4 legs and Nina’s 2)

Use the umbrella to detach the stone – a white knight.

Return to the mosaic in the ruins.

Mini-game: Solve the mosaic - continued.

Solution:
First, put all the stones in the empty slots, without bothering about positions. The map of France corresponds to the squares on the board. The story tells about the order of the stones.

The first line of the story says that the king was in Provence, which is at the bottom right of France, and therefore, the board. Put the white king in the right-most space in the lowest line (I) of the mosaic.

The second line says that the peasants were rising to the north of the king. Put the pawn on the square above the white king, i.e. the right-most space of line (II).

The third line says that the reinforcements from Navarre were forced to meet the castle from the east. Navarre is at the bottom left corner of France – put the white knight in the left-most slot space in line (I). As for the black castle, one space to the right of the white knight in line (I).

The fourth line says that the king’s opponent watched the spectacle from Brittany i.e. Bretagne, which is in the top left of the map. Put the black king in the left-most space of the top line (IV).
