Demon's Tomb: The Awakening Hints
What do I use for light in the cave?
1 of 11: Looking back at the prologue may shine some light on the matter.
2 of 11: Lynton had a torch in the prologue.
3 of 11: "Torch" in this case means "flashlight". This is another British term.
4 of 11: Its batteries are dead? They were working in the prologue.
5 of 11: You'll have to figure out a way for Lynton to preserve the torch until Richard can use it.
6 of 11: Don't continue until you've successfully completed the prologue.
7 of 11: If you've read the hints for the prologue, you know that you have 29 moves in the prologue, and saving all the objects only takes up 28.
8 of 11: You have one "free" move in the prologue. You should use it to turn off the torch.
9 of 11: You have to turn it off at the right time, though. If you turn it off too late, the batteries will either be dead, or won't last long enough to get Richard through the cave.
10 of 11: And if you turn it off too soon, the fire will spread too quickly, and you can't save all the objects.
11 of 11: Replay the prologue, and this time turn the torch off immediately after you stuff the sleeping bag in the hole. Then save the items in the usual manner. When Richard gets the torch, it will last just long enough to get him through the cave.
