The Cameron Files: Pharaoh's Curse Hints

Inventory

  • The inventory (i.e., items that you may have picked up and are carrying) in "Pharaoh's Curse" is crucial to solving the various puzzles throughout the game.  Any items you are carrying will be stored in your inventory.  The inventory screen may be accessed by right-clicking on any normal screen.

    Using inventory items in "Pharaoh's Curse" is actually quite simple.  When you are in a location that can interact with an inventory item, the cursor will change to a "working hand," to indicate such.  You can then right-click to open your inventory, select an item, and attempt to use it (normally by clicking) on the appropriate location on the screen.

    Some inventory items may be combined with others (and, indeed, may be required to be so).  Read the game manual carefully, to understand how to combine items in your inventory.  On occasion, it will not be possible to select an item from your inventory to use in the game.  This will happen if the item you've clicked on cannot be used by itself -- it may only be used by combining it with another inventory item.
