Haiku Games is back with a new Adventure Escape game, called Psychic Squad: The Italian Affair. You play as Jacqueline, who talks to ghosts, and Khaled, who sees the future. Together, they solve crime for Interpol’s Psychic Squad. This walkthrough guide should help you if you get stuck on any of the puzzles in Chapter 1. Feel free to ask for extra help in the comments section.

Chapter 1, Rome:
You can watch my video for Chapter 1 or continue below for my step-by-step guide.
1. Notice Jacqueline says we need to get in to Soundstage 5. Pick up the movie camera and telephoto lens. Pull down the caution sign. Move aside the floodlight and straighten out the tripod.
2. Place the movie camera and telephoto lens on the tripod. Pick up the cloth.
3. Look through the lens on the movie camera to see a poster of Valentina in 476. A.D.
4. Go back and use the cloth to clean the lock on the gate. Then enter 476 as the passcode to open the lock.
5. Pick up the oil can. Also, push down the rotten tree to make a bridge. And last, notice the 5 on the building.
5. Use the oil can on the little container on the ground and take the old key from inside. Use the key to open the door and go through to Soundstage 5.
6. Move the lamp aside and pick up the rain-filled barrel. Also, look at the manuscript on the floor. Take the handle and notice the copyright year is 1960.
7. Pour the bucket of water on the dirt.
8. Grab the chalk, candles and matches from Jacqueline’s purse.
9. Go back outside and use the handle to get the poster of Valentina.
10. Go back inside and place the candles, chalk, matches and poster on the seance spot.
11. Now you have to choose the right information to summon her. It goes:
I summon you by your name… Valentina.
You departed us in the year… 1960.
Here in Soundstage… 5.
12. Now you need to drag the four markers until Valentina’s energy matches her portrait. It should look like the photo below.
13. Pick up the boom pole and use it to get the Roman warhammer down. Pick it up.
14. Use the hammer to break through the crack in the floor, revealing a chest. Then go back outside and use the hammer to break the vase. Take the star. Go back inside and place the star in the slot on the chest to unlock it.
15. Now we need to figure out the passcode for the chest. Look around the room and find five symbols on the pillars.
16. Now, to figure out the order, pay attention to the column each symbol is on. The square and triangle are still standing and fully intact. But the next one in line is broken, since the bottom is still standing. Since the circle’s column is fully intact, that can’t be the next symbol. So the spiral comes next, then circle, then asterisk.
17. There’s a skeleton inside the chest with a wedding dress. It turns out the warhammer was the murder weapon and her husband, Bernardo Carabetta, killed her on their wedding night. Valentina will show you a photo of them and then someone will light the building on fire. First, notice the date on the photo – AUG 59.
18. Close the trunk and take the two piles of gears. Then use the hammer to smash the columns on the right so you can access the exit.
19. Tap on the exit. There’s a lock. The passcode is the date on the photo, August 1959 or 08/59.
20. Tap on the exit. Place all seven gears down and then place them so all the gears move together when you turn the crank.
21. The exit should be open now. Head through to complete the chapter!
And that’s the end of Chapter 1! Click here to continue to Chapter 2 or choose a chapter below.

I wished I would have known about walkthroughs before I spent a few hundred dollars on stars
Tell me about it! Ay yi yi!
Is this a sequel? Or the first game involving The Psychic Squad? The introduction made it seem like a sequel.
No but my guess is they plan to have more games with this duo.
Nel primo capitolo di Psychic Squad alla fine dove devo inserire gli ingranaggi ho fatto come nella soluzione della foto in questo sito ma non funziona non va avanti. Non ho capito perché.
Does the order of the symbols on the columns actually make any sense? I got it after just inputting them at random after various attempts at logic failed (height of symbols, amount of moss on each column, number of sides/points per symbol, etc.).
Yes- they’re in order from left to right, but you have to match the fallen columns with the broken parts to see the order.
Never mind, I re-read the clue and see that the spiral *would* have been next to the square if it hadn’t toppled. Carry on.
The “clues” in this AE game, thus far, are too hidden or non-existent. The icon for examining the photograph in level 1 was masked behind the hint icon. There’s no clue for correct placement of the gears.
I put the order in the correct places and the game kept glitching out and wouldn’t recognize them. Then I finally gave up and used my stars to skip, and whattya know. They were all in the right spots.
