* Go into the first door on the western wall.

* Purple shading is for the rooms with purple grow that hurt you.

−
* After the cutscene, take the [[raven key]] and [[clock hands]].
  
  +
* '''Notes:'''
−
* Leave the room and enter the southern door again.
  
  +
** Before entering any door, check if there is smoke emitting from the bottom. If there is no smoke, enter the door normally. If there is smoke, right-click Peek through the door, then click the Enter Room button (the animation is irrelevant). Peeking through doors will negate ALL damage taken from the ghost, the monster or the purple cloud.
−
* Use the clock hands on the clock to receive an [[eye gem]].
  
  +
** You do not heal life points over time; only [[mystery meat]] heals you. Mystery meat restores all of your life points once eaten. Deaths are safe (safe for hardcore ironmen as well).
−
* Go through the northern door.
  
  +
** {{Color|red|Safe rooms}} save your progress. Dying, exiting the house, or lobbying reverts you to your last saved state with the items and life points that you saved with but ''not'' the time.
−
* Unbolt and go through the eastern door.
  
  +
** Temporal chests cannot be opened on the first playthrough when completing the quest itself, so ignore them.
−
* Go across the main hall to the eastern door, unlock and go through it.
  
  +
** Timers (e.g. ''(30 minutes remaining)'') are general guides for the replay challenge. Challenges cannot be completed on the first playthrough, so these should also be ignored.[[File:Broken Home - Into the mansion.png|thumb|290x290px]]

 This is the quick guide for Broken Home.
For a more in-depth version, click here.

Walkthrough

Start pointQuest map icon
Broken Home icon
Talk to the distressed servant Maria, outside the mansion north east of Varrock, just south of the Silvarea limestone quarry.
Member requirementF2P icon Free to play
Official difficultyNovice Novice
Official lengthMedium to Long
RequirementsSkill requirements are not boostable unless marked with a [B] for boostable.

None

Bonus: having all non-elite skills at level 90+ will allow access to all Temporal chests in subsequent playthroughs. Individual chests scale up in levels of 10 beginning with level 10.
Items requiredItems from the tool belt are not listed unless they do not work or are not automatically added.
  • None
Enemies to defeat
  • None

Starting the quest

  • Speak to Maria. Finish the dialogue.
  • Deposit all of your items in the bank deposit box and enter the mansion.
Image notes
  • Purple shading is for the rooms with purple grow that hurt you.
  • Cyan shading is for when Senecianus chases you in monster form.

Inside of the mansion

Broken Home map
  • Notes:
    • Before entering any door, check if there is smoke emitting from the bottom. If there is no smoke, enter the door normally. If there is smoke, right-click Peek through the door, then click the Enter Room button (the animation is irrelevant). Peeking through doors will negate ALL damage taken from the ghost, the monster or the purple cloud.
    • You do not heal life points over time; only mystery meat heals you. Mystery meat restores all of your life points once eaten. Deaths are safe (safe for hardcore ironmen as well).
    • Safe rooms save your progress. Dying, exiting the house, or lobbying reverts you to your last saved state with the items and life points that you saved with but not the time.
    • Temporal chests cannot be opened on the first playthrough when completing the quest itself, so ignore them.
    • Timers (e.g. (30 minutes remaining)) are general guides for the replay challenge. Challenges cannot be completed on the first playthrough, so these should also be ignored.
