Gold Rush Hints

I'm starving in the desert!

  • 1 of 6: Is there an abandoned wagon off to the side of the road?
  • 2 of 6: If there is, you should explore it carefully.
  • 3 of 6: If there isn't, then you've forgotten something and can't complete the game from here.  Restore and get the guy with the book to help you.
  • 4 of 6: Look inside the wagon and inside the barrel.
  • 5 of 6: Eat the meat from inside the wagon and drink the water from the barrel.
  • 6 of 6: Hurry and catch up with the wagon!
