6 steps for this task

  1. 01Sort the attic objects.Group the objects into animal remains, minerals, fingers, and trees/leaves. Take the candle, put it in the lantern, and light it with matches.
  2. 02Solve the soldier box.Use the letter's eight scenes in order: one soldier; soldier and woman; soldier with triangle over cube; two soldiers and woman; horse with armed soldier above; armed soldier aiming at another; woman above triangle; woman and cube. Take the key.
  3. 03Trigger the crow check.Optional achievementThe crow can appear randomly at the window. Leave and re-enter the window view until it appears, then click it for the optional achievement.
  4. 04Build the constellation clue.Use the key on the red bag for a figure, take the figure and step from the dresser, and read the locked box clue. Move the clouds until the hotel leaves 5 stars, the red moon leaves 3, and the black water leaves 6. Build the constellations and take the final figure.
  5. 05Keep the replay branch separate.Missable orderThe normal Day 1 story answer is House 5 → Moon 3 → Water 6. Some public post-credits guides report 4 → 2 → 3 for the achievement replay; that branch remains needs-verification here, so do not replace the story answer with it.
  6. 06Open the gold box.Place the figures in their habitats: moth, bird, monkey, fish, and goat. Take the special scroll and second step, install both steps, and open the attic door.
