Cupboard Key? (possible spoilers)
Hey guys,

Enjoying this game so far. A little too much key hunting for me, but there ya go.

Apparently, I'm stuck. I seem to have used the cupboard key in the jail rec room to unlock another cupboard somewhere else. Now that I need it to unlock the cupboard in the rec room, I no longer have it, thus I can't progress the story and get the full pirate costume..

Is there ANOTHER cupboard key somewhere else in the game that I can find and use? Or is there another solution to this issue that I'm not aware of?

Thanks!!

Also stuck at this part if anyone has the solution?

Hi,

Are you sure you took the cupboard key? It's across the floor outside of the cell with the sleeping rat. Because I cannot remember that there is another cupboard key in the game.

From what I’ve read it should be in the table drawer opposite the cupboard but I’ve already taken everything from there and am still unable to open the cupboard. Feel I may have hit a buggy dead end in my game

Hi Keminus,

you're right the key is in the drawer . I just reloaded an early save game and checked.
But why you don't have the key and the drawer is empty, I cannot answer.

No worries, was a fun game though - bugs aside. Thank you for your help and checking

Not to resurrect an old thread, but the same thing happened to me. The cupboard is still locked, I do not have the key, and the drawer in question is empty. I have attempted to email the game makers but haven't received a reply.

Please let me know if you manage to solve this issue!

I'd love to be able to finish the game... I've been loving it so far.

I there,
Same issue, but I went through my save file using a text editor. Found the only cupboard in the Jail section that was still "locked". There are three phases it can be in, I changed Locked to "false" and edited the "searched" section to "true".. this unlocked the cupboard and I was able to get the item in it. code and item # to find below
