How to find all gears and get out of the barn?

The main thing you’ll notice when you walk to the larger part of the barn is that there is a gear-powered mechanism next to the door with a handle next to it. It is missing some gears and these are the gears you need to collect one by one in order to get out and proceed with the mission.

The first gear will be to the left of the big barn door and the broken mechanism, behind a locked blue door. Next to the door, you will see three hangers and a key hanging. Grab the key, unlock the door and pick up the first gear laying on the table inside.

The road to the second gear will take you to the right of the barn door. Go to the closed wooden box that has a crowbar sticking out of it. Take the crowbar, crack open the wooden box and pick up stones found inside. Select the stone from your inventory, go to the right again, approach the big glass showcase and throw the stone at the glass. Once the glass has been broken you can pick up the gear that was inside it.

The last gear will take you to the back of the barn, to a small passage blocked by a red board. Take your crowbar to remove the board, crouch to squeeze in, follow up by climbing the ladder in front of you, and jump on the highest level of the barn where you will find the last gear sitting on the table.

And there you have it! You’ve collected all the gears, now just go to the barn door, put them all in the mechanism and pull the lever.
