The Mystery of the Mummy Hints
Help! I keep dying, and I don't know why!
1 of 8: Think back to earlier in this level.
2 of 8: Specifically, when you were ready to leave the wine cellar and move into the laboratory.
3 of 8: The laboratory was dark -- you needed to provide light before you could proceed.
4 of 8: To do that, you constructed a torch and lit it.
5 of 8: When you lit the torch, a timer appeared on the right side of the screen.
6 of 8: It has been slowly draining, ever since you entered the laboratory.
7 of 8: If it runs out you will die -- suddenly and unexpectedly.
8 of 8: In order to work through the level, you'll need to look for an alternate light source -- one that will last longer.
