Destination: Treasure Island Hints
How can I get the fire lit?
1 of 10: With your trusty lighter.
2 of 10: Well, maybe not. If you pick it up in inventory and look at the description at the bottom of the screen, you'll learn that the lighter lost its oakum wick.
3 of 10: So find it another one.
4 of 10: There's some oakum and other useful stuff in a package on the island.
5 of 10: It's next to one of the two spots where you can make a fire.
6 of 10: Go to the area that's between the idol and the Flowery Coast and check out the small ruins section.
7 of 10: The package is inside what looks like a large stone mouth.
8 of 10: Pick it up and disassemble it in inventory to find the oakum you need.
9 of 10: Use that with the lighter to get it restored.
10 of 10: Now you can click your lighter on either of the two fire-making spots (as long as there's fuel on the spot) to start a fire.
