The Abbey

Words in bold stand for items that can be picked up or are already in your inventory, while underlined words stand for items that can be looked at or combined with in the environment. ‘Exit’ implies that first you exit the building completely and then use the map to go to the next location.

You can access the inventory by dragging the mouse to the top of the screen. Right clicking skips the dialogues and the cutscenes. Pressing the M key brings up the map and double clicking on any area on the map takes you there directly.  You can only use the map when you are outside a building. Finally, you can read Leonardo’s journal in the inventory.

The pages are divided into the game's parts.
