A sack of potatoes

Don't get stumped on 'A Sack of Potatoes'! This guide breaks down the mission in The Sinking City 2, helping you find the courier and the crucial whiskey crate.

Okay, so you've got a mission called "A Sack of Potatoes" in The Sinking City 2. Don't worry, it's not as weird as it sounds! This is all about helping out Fred, who's in a bit of a bind with the Esoteric Order of Dagon. He's got info on Professor Harriet Dough, but he needs a safe way out of the city first. He figures the local smugglers are the key, and they use newspaper ads for Salvation Harbor as their secret code. You'll need to check the Oakmont Chronicle archives. Look for an ad titled "Toothless Bob's wake." It'll give you a location: The Seven Oaks Bar, at the crossroads of Calmshore St and Salvation Rd in western Salvation Harbor. Once you get to The Seven Oaks, the bartender is your contact. He's a bit suspicious of newcomers, so he'll ask you to do a favor. You need to find a courier who was supposed to deliver a package. The bartender gives you his last known address: a house on Levi Coffin Avenue, near the intersection with Marsh Avenue in western Grimhaven Bay. When you get there, be ready for a fight. Some wylebeasts are hanging around. After you deal with them, head into the basement. You'll find some clues: tire tracks, a bloodstain, a can of gasoline, and a burnt body. Use your Mind's Eye to find a hidden wall. Behind it is the package: a crate of whiskey for the bartender. You'll also get a vision using retrocognition – it shows someone being killed here by a group led by a guy in a wheelchair. Take the whiskey back to The Seven Oaks. The bartender freaks out when he hears what happened. He's worried his boss will think he was involved. He'll eventually give you the real smuggling details: a rendezvous point in an alley on Windmill Ave, between Octopus Ave and Skipper Rd in southern Salvation Harbor. The password is: "The dog is rabid, so it must be killed." You'll need to ask "What does one do with a dog?" to use it.
