Ankh Hints

Who can make a crocodile costume for me?

  • 1 of 7: No one in Cairo can help, not even the tailor, so try the desert.
  • 2 of 7: Have you visited Giza and the Sphinx? They're both accessible from the desert area that's past the starting area (the one with the bones and tree).
  • 3 of 7: But no one there can weave a costume.
  • 4 of 7: You'll have to find the three Israelite weavers in the oasis area.
  • 5 of 7: The oasis is the goal of the desert treasure hunt, so do the "Find the 'treasure of the desert'" task to get there.
  • 6 of 7: Head down the narrow walkways that lead to the camp, then talk to the three guys down there.
  • 7 of 7: Keep talking to them until they say they're weavers, then ask them to weave you a crocodile costume.
