Sherlock Holmes: Chapter One – The Hand Me Down (100% Case Walkthrough) Guide

This page will be focusing on providing a detailed walkthrough for the Sherlock Holmes: Chapter One, The Hand Me Down optional side case, which starts at The Old City

I will be trying to cover as much of the side case as possible, from collecting all evidence to unlocking any potential missable trophies and achievements.

REQUIRED NPC: N/A
LOCATION: Scarlet St (Old City)
REWARDS: Violet Holmes’s Magnifying Glass, 15 Coin
GUIDE:
Head to Scarlet St in the Old City and you should come across a large statue of a hand, hence the name Hand-me-Down..
Now proceed to pin The Silver Hand Monument from the Casebook menu and then inspect the hand statue. We will now learn that it is a statue in honour of the pirate, Karim.
John will now magically be standing on the statue and we will receive The Silver Hand Riddles
Head back to the Casebook menu and this time pin The Silver Hand Riddles evidence that we just picked up
We will now be doing some riddle solving..

FIRST RIDDLE:
‘A hand with treasure, a quest so sweet! Stand where Eurus Rd and Crooked St meet.
A few steps towards the mosque, left at the first stairs.
And find the courtyard a wishing well shares’

We now need to travel south of Old City, towards the Gul Afshar Caravanserai
The wishing well can then be found through a small arched tunnel.
Inspect the wishing well using concentration mode in order to find its secret stash (Second Riddle)

SECOND RIDDLE:
You’re almost there, lets not postpone.
You’re seeking an arc that’s made of stone
Head east from the Old Ruins, my friend, it guards the ancients until the end..

Here you basically want to travel to the Old Ruins, south west of the map by Grand Saray
Once you arrive head down to the beach, where you will find an abandoned wooden boat.
In this area the game will hint that you are near the stash. In order to find it you will need to search the rocks just beyond this abandoned boat

LAST RIDDLE:
With old ruins beneath its feet.
Find a tree that treasures keep.
You may find only one small detail. But that does not mean that you have failed.
