Ankh Hints
Where can I get a xylophone?
1 of 8: Once again, there's no such object around, so you'll have to improvise.
2 of 8: Head back to the garden area again.
3 of 8: Look around for some items that might be used in a similar way to a xylophone.
4 of 8: Or look around for any takeable items that you haven't used yet. That'll work, too.
5 of 8: As with the red powder search, head back to the table with the big Pharaoh chair next to it.
6 of 8: The smaller chair at the right end of that table has a large fork stuck in it that you can take.
7 of 8: And the washboard that's behind the table and just to the left of the big harp can be taken, too.
8 of 8: A washboard and a fork -- not exactly a xylophone, but you can make some sort of noise on it, anyway.
