Tex Murphy: Overseer Hints
How do I retrieve the item from the pit?
1 of 7: If you look closely, you'll notice that it lies in a bucket.
2 of 7: So you have to find something like a rope with a hook to get the bucket out of the well.
3 of 7: You can find a rope in the ceremonial chamber close to the tree at the far right in the ruins -- it's hanging there on the wall.
4 of 7: Now, for the hook, you'll have to find the hallway towards the inner chamber of the ruins.
5 of 7: You'll find it behind the door in the alcove in the right part of the ruins.
6 of 7: Just proceed through the hallway until you see at pipe lying on the floor.
7 of 7: Combine the pipe with the rope and use this combination on the bucket in the pit.
