Behind Seven Seals 23: General Tips

A distant relative of the royal family bought the old hotel and hired workers to carry out restoration work. Everything went well until a hidden walled room was found in the bowels of the building. After this event, frightening incidents began to occur in the hotel, so the builders refused to go to work. The Queen herself learned of the incident and asked the Master Detective to join the investigation.

Help the hero of the game overcome all difficulties, find the necessary equipment and solve tricky puzzles to find out about the terrible past of the Pendle Tower, including experiments on people carried out there. Gather the right items and check the quest diary often so you don’t go astray and don’t miss important details. If necessary, refer to the hint and check your location on the map.

This walkthrough will not mention the need to zoom in on a certain area. The screenshots show an already enlarged image. Hidden Object Scenes are abbreviated "HOP". In the walkthrough, only the location of the HOPs themselves will be noted and the item that you will receive as a reward for passing will be indicated. Use the map to quickly get to the right place.

You will be shown puzzle solutions that are not randomly generated. Please read the in-game descriptions for each puzzle. Sometimes in this game, before interacting with a scene, you will need to click on a new scene to trigger a dialogue, cutscene, or quest.
