Noir Walkthru
(Note: Due to the multiple cases in Noir this walkthrough is broken out into
6 parts for ease of use, each part is labeled by its case title. [Winthrop
Case, Watkins Case, etc.] The opening section will be the same for all six
cases. In order to find out what happened to Slayton you will need to solve
all six cases.)
Opening
At the start of the game you will be in Slaytonís office. First thing to do
is go to the desk. The intercom will begin buzzing at random intervals. Turn
to the intercom, which is behind the desk, and switch it on. You will hear
the secretary give you instructions before she leaves the office. Jack
Slayton is missing and the answer to his disappearance may lie in the cases
he was working on.
(Note: Once Secretary Premise is set to TRUE you can leave the office
through the office door or go to another location via the map.)
Open the right top desk drawer and get the rolodex key. Now use the key and
open the rolodex. Flip the cards until the ìHelpî telephone number comes up.
Go to the phone and pick up the receiver, you will hear the first message
from the Informant.
After hearing the first Informant massage open the center desk drawer and
remove the coin purse. Now you will be able to call the Informant from any
pay phone.
Open the middle right drawer and remove the flash light.
Open the desk return all the way (two pulls are required) to get the
combination to the wall safe (hidden behind the picture): open the safe and
get the gun.
(Note: Now you are ready to investigate the cases in any order you like
[with some exceptions - see case descriptions below])
Winthrop Case
Slaytonís Office
Read Winthrop file (right lower drawer of desk) and you learn that he hired
Slayton to investigate the death of his prize race horse ëPegasus.í
Leave the office and go to the Race Track.
Race Track:
At the Race Track go to the stable doors. Look away from the stable doors
and down to find the muddy footprints. Now go find Pegasusí stall door and
discover that itís locked. A video of Eddie the Jockey tells you that
Pegasus was too healthy to die of natural causes and he gives you permission
to look in his stall.
Unlock Pegasusí stall and enter. Turn on the light and look at the close-up
of Pegasusí feed schedule. Now look at the bulletin board and see the close
up of Mannieís business card, also look at the close-up of the newspaper
article about Winthrop Mansion. Find the saddle and look down to find the
syringe hidden in the hay. Hmmm?
Go to Winthrop Mansion.
Winthrop Mansion:
Look up immediately after entering through the gate and wait for the
upstairs light to turn off.
Enter the mansion through the window. Open the kitchen door to see a video
of the staff discussing how Winthrop canít think straight since Pegasusí
death and he is having financial problems as a result.
Now find Winthropís desk and discover several thank you letters from various
charities. Look in the left desk drawer to find an insurance policy on
Pegasus. Find the prescription for Pegasusí medicine on the desk. In the
right desk drawer you will find Winthropís contract with Pollock which
states that if Winthrop defaults everything goes to Pollock.

telling you to ìScram!î
Go back to Slaytonís office, open the closet and get the bourbon bottle.
Go to Manorwood.

pair of boots from the left.
Locate Pollockís desk and read the survey letter saying that there are vast
oil deposits here, but money is needed to develop them. Find the bank letter
on the desk denying Pollock a loan. Read the note telling us that Winthrop
is backing out of the deal due to his being upset about Pegasusí death. Find
the medicine vile hidden in Pollockís desk. Receive Informantís phone call
that Pollock is coming ...
(Note: there are three different endingís to this case depending on your
actions here, they are listed as A, B and C)
A. Enter the closet and see video of Pollock discovering the missing vial of
medicine and running away. Back at Slaytonís office you will see a newspaper
headline about ìPegasus Killer Escaping to U.K.î
B. If after you receive the warning about Pollock coming you attempt to
leave the shack without the gun Pollock will see you and the guard will
shoot you. Back at Slaytonís office you will see a newspaper headline saying
ìDetective found in Gutter.î
(Note: depending on the difficulty level setting you will loose your memory
of this case)
C. If after you receive the warning about Pollock you attempt to leave the
shack with the gun Pollock will see you but you will win the shoot-out with
the guard. Back at Slaytonís office you will see a newspaper heading saying
the same as in option A.

After you take care of the other two cases (at least as much as you can) and
return here the Informant calls you in Watkinsí office to tell you to hide
because the Nazis are coming. Turn off the office light and hide in the
closet. You will then see Wo-Tan (the dog from the Agnes Case) retrieve one
of the code books.
Go to Mannieís bookstore. (Itís around the corner from Slaytonís office)
Mannieís Bookstore

from entering the vault, insert the paper clip into the gears.

call from the Mayor congratulating you.
