Apothecary’s Chest (Puzzle Box)

In Nancy Drew: Midnight in Salem, Nancy finds Mei in the tunnels, she then hunts for the Book of Apologies, found behind the big poster on the wall. She must place all the drawers back in the chest so that they all fit together. This puzzle is different for Amateur and Master sleuth levels, and in my personal opinion, Master sleuth level is easier.

You can right-mouse click and drag your camera around to see better, since the lighting is dark in many places and the shine from the light is limiting. Left-mouse click on a drawer to select it, and from this  moment, you can either right-mouse click to inspect it closer (then right-mouse click again to exit inspection mode), or hover your cursor over a space in the chest. The slots will be red (cannot fit here) or white (you can fit it here). Left-mouse click again to “place” your drawer, or swap it with another one.

Since the drawers on the left and right sides of the box are randomly sorted each time you approach the puzzle, refer to the video for the end solution. Simply look for the box shapes and place them according to the answer.
