The Mystery of the Mummy Hints
My torch is running out, and I'm not finished yet.
1 of 6: The activities required in the lab can easily be done using one torch's light.
2 of 6: However, for additional time, you should have picked up enough materials to make two torches.
3 of 6: There is also another way to avoid running out of torch light, but it doesn't involve any particular gameplay logic.
4 of 6: As soon as you light your first torch, save your game. Then begin exploring. (Much of the exploration in this room only involves reading.)
5 of 6: When you have found an object to pick up, or something to act upon, remember where it is. Then restore your last saved game, go immediately to that object (or perform that action), and then save your game again.
6 of 6: Continue exploring in this manner, until you have finished in this area, and no longer need a torch.
