Detailed walkthrough for Grimhaven Bay Central (7) in The Sinking City 2, covering key evidence, optional objectives, and character interactions to help you progress.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Charon Ship Investigation: This is your first investigation location. Collect the following key evidence: your belongings on the table (briefcase, camera, pistol), the 'Letter from J. van der Berg' found in the briefcase, and the 'Camera'. To collect the pistol, pick it up, rotate it until an 'eyeball' symbol appears on the handle, and press 'X' to examine it. You will also receive 6 .38 pistol rounds.
  2. 2
    Additional Evidence on Ship: Use your camera to take a photo of the 'Photo of a trophy plate' (a strange fish on the wall) and examine the 'Flyer' on the desk.
  3. 3
    Lootables: Search lootable objects like lockers for ammunition and crafting materials. These reset upon returning to the area.
  4. 4
    Conversation with Johannes van der Berg: After collecting your belongings, climb onto the dock (Triangle) and speak with Johannes van der Berg. To advance, select 'About my problem,' 'Where is Robert Throgmorton?,' 'I need somewhere to stay,' 'How do I get to Devil's Reef?,' and 'Goodbye.' Note that optional dialogue choices will be lost after saying goodbye.
  5. 5
    Find Robert Throgmorton: Proceed north along the pier and turn right at the sign pointing to the exit. Go up the stairs to begin a conversation with Robert Throgmorton. Key dialogue choices to advance include 'What happened to your son?,' 'Who are the Innsmouthers?,' 'What do you know about the visions?,' 'I can try to find Albert,' 'Tell me more about the case,' and 'I'll be going.'
  6. 6
    Optional: Titania Lifeboat Investigation: Return to the sign pointing to the exit, then go left down a path and left towards the sea. The lifeboat is beyond police barricades. This is optional and does not add to your casebook but grants 140 XP and an additional conversation with Robert Throgmorton.
  7. 7
    Evidence in Titania Lifeboat: Inspect the 'TITANIA' lifeboat name, examine the 'Diving Helmet' (rotate and search the front faceplate), and collect 'Albert Throgmorton's will' from a seat. Be cautious as looking at the diving helmet drains sanity. Climb inside the lifeboat (Triangle) to collect evidence.
  8. 8
    Return to Robert Throgmorton: After finding Albert's will, return to Robert Throgmorton to give him the will and unlock an optional conversation.
Tips
  • If you own the Necronomicon Edition or DLC, you receive a Submachine Gun and 30 .45 ABP rounds. Use this ammo sparingly as it depletes quickly.
  • Consider investing a Skill Point into 'Absolute Clarity' for a 5% XP bonus.
  • Reload your equipped gun by holding L1 to bring up the weapon wheel and pressing Square.
  • Lootable objects can be repeatedly searched for ammo and crafting materials. Areas with more loot may indicate greater danger.
  • The Titania Lifeboat investigation is optional but rewarding.
  • 140 XP for collecting all evidence on the 'Charon' ship (if all is found).
  • 140 XP for completing the optional Titania Lifeboat investigation.
  • Access to additional conversations with Robert Throgmorton.
