Greetings,

I'm really stuck at a point in the game.

I control Dr Watson in Whitechapel after the second murder.
I have talked to the fat guy hidden in the pub but after that i don't know where to go.
Also, next to the Finley's boarding house, there's a gas smell coming from the abandoned building but i can't find a way to get in.

I hope someone "un-stucks" me

I am not quite sure, but I think I was stuck there as well and kept wandering around quite aimlessly for some time.

Spoiler:

If I remember correctly, your next step would be to visit the police station. Take a good look around ... particularly in the vicinity of the waste-paper basket...

BTW, are you already playing the English version? Or the French one?

[jimitris]

Thanks for replying Mieze.
But i have already done that!
Do you remember where you go after this?

I play the English version. It was released some days ago here (Greece)

[Mieze]

I hope the English version will come out here as well soon. My French isn't very good and I am sure I missed many of the finer points of the game.

I am not quite sure what I did afterwards. But ...

Spoiler:

don't bother about the gas. This is a task for Holmes, not for Watson. I think I picked up a broken bottle on the stairs at Finley's place. Not sure if I did this as Watson or Holmes, though. And I did something in the hospital, I think.

Unfortunately I cannot check the game right now, since I am at work. But unless you come across the solution in the meantime, I can check when I get home.

Oh, and I thought of another thing I missed, that got me stuck:

Spoiler:

Did you see the footsteps in the hospital?

[jimitris]

Thanks again but I've done these too!
The broken bottle is before the 2nd murder and it's back home with Holmes.
So far in this visit at whitechapel with Watson i have:
-Talked to the witness at the police station.
-Retrieved the torn apart statements.
-Talked to the fat guy.
-Completed the "quest" about the stolen staff of the painter.

What do I miss?

[jimitris]

At last...problem solved!

I just had to...

Spoiler:

talk to the doctor about the pills, but i didnt know that the item had to be highlighted in order to di it

[Mieze]

Glad to see that you found it! Yes, sometimes the devil is in the detail.
Maybe I'll be able to help another time.
