The House of Da Vinci 2: Chapter 5 Walkthrough Guide

41. Open the boot in your bag and slide open the sole. Take the metal flower leaf from inside.

42. Then go to the opposite wall and look at the maze painting. Pull the red gem through the maze and past the portrait, stopping right before it has to go through the portrait again.

43. Pull the portrait pack up. Then continue pulling the red gem along the maze until it hits another dead end.

44. Now go to the desk and turn the two wheels until the two discs on the painting are lined up properly. Pull the red gem along the track until it hits another dead end.

45. Again, turn the wheels on the desk to turn the discs in the painting. You should now be able to get the red gem to the exit. Then take the metal component. Also, notice the symbols next to each plant on the frame of the painting. That’s important.

46. Go back to the desk. Insert the metal component on the top of what looks like an urn. It will open up, but don’t worry about it yet.

47. Zoom in on the front of the desk and use your Oculus to see the machinery inside. There are four parts, each controlled by the little handle. They take turns moving, starting from 1 to 4, then back to 1. The goal is to get all four pointing straight down. Push the handle either up or down for each one until they line up and look like the image below. Then take the vial that pops up.

48. The vial holds essence of tulip. Look at the drawing on it and then find that same drawing on the maze painting. Note down the symbol next to it. Then go to the open urn on the table and find that symbol. Place the essence of tulip by it and take the strange key.

49. Head over to the wall to the left of the desk. Insert the strange key below the gold dome and pull it down to open the dome.

50. Zoom in on the puzzle. The goal here is to open up the covering over each globe. It’s not easy to explain but I’ll try. The locks on the four corners only work one at a time and lock a color into place so the covering won’t move anymore. The slider that goes around either opens or closes the covering on the globe near it. Anyway, once they’re al open, take the essence of anise from the center.

51. Again, find the correct symbol on the frame and then place it with the other essence. Then take the flower ornament that slides out.

52. Open the flower ornament in your bag and combine it with the metal flower leaf to make a mechanism with flower motif.

53. Head back to the wall left of the desk. Rotate the disc on the right to match the emblem on the left. Then open the flap.

54. Slide the metal pieces aside to reveal a metal pipe. Screw the adorned wood stud into it and then keep turning to open the blinds, revealing some books. Take the book with the red bookmark. It’s an herbarium.

55. Go back to the desk. Zoom in on the top and place the mechanism with flower motif in the slot. Then slide open the two wooden panels.

56. Place the book downs and it will automatically open, revealing a sort of pinball game.

57. The goal with this game is to get each ball to the bottom of the board without it falling through any of the holes on the way. If it falls through, you have to keep trying till you get it. Use the red/green arrow to direct the ball. You’ll have to do this three times to complete it and get the vial of essence of sage and a drawer handle.

58. Omg again, check which symbol matches the image on the vial and then place it with the rest. It won’t lock in this time, but that’s ok.

59. Now, look at the left side of the desk. There are two holes. Insert the drawer handle and pull it down to reveal three changeable words.

60. Remember the three words from the painting? Change the words on the desk to those: CUSTODIAS HIC HOSTIUM. Then take the essence of mint.

    Stuck in the secret passage way elevator room. Hints do not match that room. Telling me to look at the round to the left. There is no round stool. Cannot go back. Stuck.

    1. Mitch

      look to your left down you can turn the 3e around. Then go back in time and pick up whatΓÇÖs in it.

  2. Vron

    Im stuck after the attic in the hallway- picked up hook with a screw and IΓò¼├┤Γö£├ºΓö£├╗m completely lost. Hint mentions the past but I canΓò¼├┤Γö£├ºΓö£├╗t go backwards – help!

  3. Jackie Ellis

    ItΓÇÖs so weird that when I look through these posts, I donΓÇÖt remember doing half these things, yet IΓÇÖm further along lol odd.

  4. Carol

    Anxiously awaiting more of your advice. The hints indicate that I should be taking the lift up to another level, but I can’t seem to go up any further than a few feet before I bang my head against the ceiling again.

    1. AppUnwrapper

      Try moving the lever to the center with the two arrows. ItΓÇÖs a little confusing and I went up by accident.

  5. Tezza

    I am lost…after you use the hook to get into the building with the lights and mirrors. Being dyslexic, and a person that has trouble with even right/left, N, S, E, W IΓò¼├┤Γö£├ºΓö£├╗m in purgatory. I know there is the pattern in our little diary but that doesnΓò¼├┤Γö£├ºΓö£├╗t help in this situation. Do you have any thoughts? Can I undo what I did and start over? Thanks! (Or a Γò¼├┤Γö£├ºΓö¼├║there, There pat when you read this and throw your hands up in the air…either way is just fine.)

    1. AppUnwrapper

      I finished it and I think IΓÇÖm watching the ending (itΓÇÖs really bad and sounds like itΓÇÖs voiced by a computer). IΓÇÖm hoping it will allow me to replay any chapter so I donΓÇÖt have to start a new profile and catch up. But I probably wonΓÇÖt get to it till tomorrow. Getting late here.

    2. AppUnwrapper

      Ok it was the ending and it does let you choose any chapter. So bear with me. IΓÇÖll finish up my guide for 5, then make a video, then work on my guide for 6.

      1. Tezza

        Thanks…I finally just started pressing things and running here and there and looking at the rays. There should be no possible way I could do this without a plan but it worked.. I do not want to do that over again. I do love the story and the clever puzzles. I did the same thing with the next section of puzzles. THANK YOU for the help offer AND the amazing videos and walkthroughs you do. You really do a lovely job of your reviews and walkthroughs. I did this kind of thing way back in the old days. At this point I donΓò¼├┤Γö£├ºΓö£├╗t have a brain that works the way it did. YOU help me enjoy the stories and the art and the clever plots and twists and evil puzzles. I should have said thank you long ago. Holler if you are in Denver area…weΓò¼├┤Γö£├ºΓö£├╗ll pick you up and feed ya!

    I am stuck with the planets and the sun

    1. AppUnwrapper

      I added it to my guide, but itΓÇÖs a hard one to explain. I should have a video out of this chapter later today.

      1. Linda Seymour

        Hi thank you for replying I get to 46 on page 3
        Then it goes to page 4 but starts at 61 sorry to be a pain

        Many thanks Linda

        1. AppUnwrapper

          Hi Linda! Page 3 should go to step 60. ItΓÇÖs possible the cache is keeping it from showing so you may need to wait a bit and try again. IΓÇÖll also keep an eye on it and see when it fixes itself.

  7. Wendy

    IΓò¼├┤Γö£├ºΓö£├╗m stuck at the ball drop – #57. IΓò¼├┤Γö£├ºΓö£├╗ve collected 2 balls but the 3rd just disappeared. It didnΓò¼├┤Γö£├ºΓö£├╗t drop back into the spring. ???

    1. Bob

      I had two balls collected, but when I turned iPad on the next day, they had both disappeared, the game gave me only one ball to play, but no more, is this a bug?
      Does anyone know how I can unlock the vial, IΓÇÖm surely you donΓÇÖt have to the play the whole chapter again, or am I missing something.

      1. Ali

        I am having the same problem. I have got 2 balls but no ball appears now for me to get the third

        1. Ali

          Here is a weird thing, I hadnΓÇÖt played for a couple of days, and when I did, all three balls had reappeared, so IΓÇÖm not sure if you have to wait for a while, but hopefully they will return. Good luck.

          1. Frances

            IΓò¼├┤Γö£├ºΓö£├╗ve got the same problem….

          2. Gunsu

            Same here,

          3. Angie

            I’ve got the same problem any news yet?

    2. LuAnn

      If you force stop the app then you get all 3 balls back.

      1. Lori

        I’m playing on my laptop with a track pad. Hard enough to switch fast enough. I got one done, then after trying the 2nd ball a couple of times my ball disappears. I exit the game and restart. My ball I had completed was gone. So I start again, and it happens again. What do I do?

  8. Ashley

    How do I open the ‘part of a shield’ so I can add the shield part? I’ve tried pushing, pulling etc and it doesn’t open for me to attach the second piece.

  9. Mike

    H Leonardo keeps telling me to knock on the door so the librarian will know we are here ?

  10. Halim

    Stuck at step 47 !!! I still cant get the sequence to get the vial !! Starting to be frustrated! It seems that u also stuck at that part too,right?

  11. Debra

    My tablet does not allow me to move the arrow mechanism fast enough to get ball three through the maze. Is there a way to skip. To move on? Or am I just done.

    1. Zorro

      I had a hard time with this myself — just alternate as fast as you can without even thinking about the path. For the third ball, start on red and keep switching as many times as you need to as fast as you can. I got it with a wireless mouse eventually — but it was tough. This particular puzzle is out of character to the game and a poor choice in my opinion.

  12. Debra

    The level with the Pachinco Machine wonΓÇÖt let me have a third ball.

  13. pierluigi

    stuck at page 58…
    i collected the 3 balls, the flask and the handle…
    but now I can’t do anything… I can’t return back to the room…
    stuck… blocked… annoyed…
