Talk to Aldous to start, and he hands you a Rifle. Just to his left are ammo on the tree stump and a piece of paper on the table.

Read the paper. It lists what you need to hunt:

  • Deer: Near gently flowing water.
  • Pheasant: In treetops.
  • Rabbit: Burrows under rocks near grassland. Shoot the rock that’s in your line of sight when you aim down the gun.
  • Pigeon: Flies high in the air.
  • Boar: Among roadside bushes. Look for a slight shadow in the distance, sticking out from the trees.

Hidden achievement (A Perfect Hunt): Hunt every animal on the list, plus William. He shows up on the left, by the water and a small bridge. He may only appear after you’ve shot a few animals and left the scene to collect more ammo. Hit him once and he goes into the water. Hit him twice and he disappears. If an animal doesn’t die, hit it twice.

Aiming the rifle from the stump at the hills

Go to the stump and take the bullets. Then click the stump and drag the Rifle onto it to take aim. If you run out of ammo, back out of the scene and more bullets appear.

When the hunt is over, Aldous disappears and the paper blows onto the ground. Pick it up and read it. Aldous comes back near the table. Talk to him, and he asks for the butcher knife. First, though, look at all the meat on the table in front of him.

Meat Puzzle

Table covered in numbered pieces of meat, bones, an eye, a snout, and a claw

Hint: What did the note say?

Solution: The meat is numbered, and the note tells you the order. It says a true hunter uses all of his senses, then lists them as sight, smell, touch, taste, and hearing. On the table are an ear, tongue, snout, eye, and claw, one for each sense, and you need to activate them. For the eye, move the meat and bones until the eye moves; it follows the piece it matches. The tongue starts licking once you’ve matched it to the right item. Then put the numbers in the order the note lists the senses: sight (IX), smell (I), touch (II), taste (VII), and hearing (VI). The code is IX, I, II, VII, VI, or 9, 1, 2, 7, 6.

Once you have the code, go to the shed door on the right and enter it. Pick up the Cloth from the floor on the right, take the Butcher Knife, and bring it back to Aldous.

Click him a few times. When he blinds himself with the mess, click his bag. Open it and take the Silver Timepiece. Then use the Cloth to clean his face.
