The Mystery of the Mummy Hints

What do I do with the three levers?

  • 1 of 12: Play with the levers to see how they can be arranged.
  • 2 of 12: It appears that you can set any lever to one of three positions, so a clue is necessary to find out the right positions.
  • 3 of 12: The clue can be found in another document located nearby.
  • 4 of 12: The document is a dirty piece of paper, located in the cabinet in the main foyer.
  • 5 of 12: The paper seems to indicate movement of the three levers.
  • 6 of 12: Apparently there is a correct sequence of movements, in addition to just the final lever setting.
  • 7 of 12: The paper appears to show a three-step process.
  • 8 of 12: This clue should be read left-to-right, top-to-bottom.
  • 9 of 12: The first step -- reading across the paper -- indicates to put all three levers in the "down" position.
  • 10 of 12: The second step only moves the middle lever.
  • 11 of 12: The middle lever must be moved up twice -- to the top position.
  • 12 of 12: The third step moves the left and right levers up one position, to the middle position.
