Return to Mysterious Island Hints

Where can I find a lens?

  • 1 of 17: You won't find one just laying around...
  • 2 of 17: But maybe you can scavenge something that contains a lens.
  • 3 of 17: First, you'll have to explore around the beach area fairly thoroughly...
  • 4 of 17: ...particularly the area beyond the large stone archway.
  • 5 of 17: Have you seen the turtle who was just burying some eggs?
  • 6 of 17: Go over to the spot that the turtle just left.
  • 7 of 17: Note the trail left by the departing turtle.
  • 8 of 17: Look for signs in the sand of similar digging elsewhere.
  • 9 of 17: From the spot where the turtle left, head back toward the stone archway, but then turn to the right to see another trail apparently left by another turtle.
  • 10 of 17: If you dig at (click on) the right spot, you'll not only find the turtle eggs, but a wooden chest, as well.
  • 11 of 17: Open the chest with the key.
  • 12 of 17: Take the telescope from the chest.
  • 13 of 17: It looks pretty beat up -- probably won't work as a telescope any more.
  • 14 of 17: A perfect thing to scavenge!
  • 15 of 17: What can you use to pry out the lens from the telescope?
  • 16 of 17: A knife, or a screwdriver would work...  but since you probably don't have one (yet), that old rusty key should do nicely.
  • 17 of 17: Combine the rusty key and the telescope in inventory to get a lens.
