Danger on Deception Island part 1 - Sabotage!

Here's my video walkthrough:

And the following is my written walkthrough! If you haven't read my other walkthroughs, here is a few things you need to know: Italics means that this is an optional action, but typically it is recommended that you do this. Bold means that this is necessary to do, but you should probably do it later (these situations are rare). Underlined means that we are in a new location.

As always, the game starts with a letter. You'll listen to the letter, talk to Katie, and then find yourself...

Below Deck

If you would like to, explore your laptop. It is to the right of the stairs you see in front of you. The DI portal, Anagram buster and mail will be helpful later, but you don't need to look at them now. The journal and task list is for your help through out the game. Senior level detectives won't have the task list.

To the left of the stairs, you can find a faucet. When you click on it, Nancy will point out to you that it isn't working!

After Katie tells you to, open the cupboard below this sink and put the pipes together.

      Hint: Start at the pipe at the bottom. It won't work if you start from the top.

      Hint: You can rotate by right-clicking.

      Hint: You can solve this like a guess-and-check, by checking each pipe to see if it fits with the other pipe.

Here is the solution:

This next location we will also call below deck, since you can't get to it without going through the lower deck.

If you turn around, to the left of Nancy's bunk there are some wooden stairs. Go up them.

Notice all the books on the floor! To the left of them, there is a blue shelf close to the ground. Zoom in on them.

This is one of the book puzzles that you will find in several Nancy Drew games. You must get all the books to fit in the shelf again. There are several ways to do this. A few tips:

      Put the longest ones in first, then the biggest. That way, the smaller ones can fit into the little crevices.

      Get the books as close together as possible. You want as much room for the other books as possible.

There are multiple solutions: but here is the one the game wants you to get for Senior:

I have only now realized that the Junior solution is different from the Senior one, so I will be doing the Junior solution in my next walkthrough.

Thank you for reading my walkthrough and I hope you truly enjoyed it! If you have any questions about the puzzles, post it in the comments below and I would love to help you! Also, if you have any comments that would be nice, too. I enjoy pleasurable comments. I hope I will be able to post the next one soon!
