Hey, thanks for playing - I hope you're enjoying it!
// SPOILERS AHEAD
The key thing where you are is whether you've read the note that was with the Atwater woman. If you have, it'll point you to the safe room in the bottom floor of the tower and you'll have some new options there (the painting in particular).
// SPOILERS DONE
If you're still stuck, or if you think you're running into some kind of bug, please let me know. Feel free to DM me on Discord or anywhere else (same name everywhere), I'm happy to go into more detail if you want. Thanks!
