Follow this comprehensive walkthrough for Eriksholm: The Stolen Dream Chapter 1: What the Boy Took, covering the Boiler Room, Attic, Workshop, Steam Engine, Rooftops, Repair Shop, and The Pub.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Boiler Room: After escaping through the vent, find a note on a table and collectible 1 (Rosmark’s Gate and Bastion) on a poster. Exit through the door after waiting for the guard to pass. Climb the ladder after speaking with Aunt Mary.
  2. 2
    Attic: Hide behind boxes as two guards enter. Wait for one to check the trap door, then pass behind him. Enter a vent on the left.
  3. 3
    Workshop: Wait in the vent to observe guard patrols. Exit the vent and cross to the right behind cover. Wait for guards to move, then descend stairs, avoiding metal grates. Look through the window at the red crank, then exit into the engine room.
  4. 4
    Steam Engine: Hide behind the big wheel as a guard walks on the grate. Wait for the second guard to pass, then cross to the red crank. Hide and wait for the guard to pass, then interact with the crank to turn on the machine. Immediately sneak up the stairs onto the upper grate area. Use moving boxes to reach the ladder on the right.
  5. 5
    The Rooftops: After dialogue, climb the ledge to the left. Note that birds make noise and can alert guards or be used as distractions. Continue across rooftops, find a note on a vent, and vault over a gate to the left. Climb ladders back to the ground floor.
  6. 6
    Repair Shop: Walk right past the truck and down the stairs. Find a collectible (Apple Gardens Travel Guide) on a platform up a ladder on the left. Backtrack to the rooftops area. Past the birds, make noise near them to distract the guard. Vault over the gate to the left. Grab a note on a table behind the gate.
  7. 7
    The Pub: Enter through the next doorway, watch the cutscene with the revolving guard. Quickly run across the yard to the left (hold Shift + M1). Wait for the next revolving guard’s back to turn, then walk down the wooden walkway. Find a note on a barrel near the vault gate. Climb over the gate. Look through the window into the warehouse. Navigate the wine storage area by waiting for patrols, then drop down or take stairs. Move around the corner to a brick wall with a picture, climb the ledge, and enter a vent. Inside the vent, enter the warehouse to collect a note and a collectible (Madame Cecilia).
