This is a hint for the game Raving Manor. Please be warned, the following hint gives information that could be considered a spoiler. For this reason, we would like to caution you about reading the hint unless you are certain that you want to proceed with knowing the information contained herein.
So, through cunning and effort you have made it to the second floor, only to find a wooden barricade that stops you from going on to the third. Nobody said that Raving Manor was going to be easy, but it could give you a few breaks - probably not going to happen.
The barricade is made of wood, so maybe something that could cut through the wood might give you a chance to use leverage against the boards and pull them off, clearing the passage. Well, you are in luck, since the good doctor may have had a surgical saw being used in his, ahem, work. With a little luck you can find it and cut the boards.
Of course, the question remains, do you want to remove the barricade? Apparently someone went through a lot of effort to put it up, only to have you just rip it down. Wouldn't it be nice if you had the luxury of a choice?
