---

60 years ago, a tomb was uncovered in the desert outside Cairo. A British expedition set out to find the legendary Lost Queen but never returned. Talk of a curse followed until today.

Present day, 100km outside Cairo: A team from Kingston University is digging in the desert. A dust storm overwhelms the campsite.

Expedition leader Jon Boyle is found unconscious on the floor of the main tent.

Nancy talks on the cell phone with Jon who is at the hospital. Jon was hit on the head. Learn that the crew left after the incident. Jon wants Nancy to be his eyes and ears at the campsite and to check his notes located in his bunk area.

Nancy says she will see if she can prove whose tomb this is and find out who attacked Jon.

Explore the main tent:

Look around and see bunks at both sides of the tent.

Nancy’s bunk:    Check the rightmost bunk on the right.

Open the footlocker and get Egyptian Hieroglyphs to English and Hieroglyph Practice Book. Eat the Koko Kringle bar. 😀 Take and read the How to Read Egyptian Hieroglyphs book above the chocolate bar. If you read all documents or books in the game; you might win an award.

Go to the side table and see The Lost Queens of Egypt by Prof Beatrice Hotchkiss (Nancy’s old friend) book. Open the book and check the phone number to enter it on the cell phone. Open the pages and read about the Lost Queens of Egypt.

Lily Crew:    Go to the middle bunk at left side. Talk to Lily. She tells Nancy that she is taking charge of the American group (which means Nancy) of the expedition.

Other bunks:    Try to check the 2 other crew bunks. Lily stops Nancy.

Lily:     Talk to Lily again about calling Jon and getting his notes.

Find Professor Jon Boyle’s notes:

Professor Jon Boyle’s bunk:    Check the rightmost bunk at left side.

Now that you told Lily to call Jon – Go to the side table and take Jon Boyle’s notebook. Read the notebook. The last page is cut. It refers to another big clue.

Open the footlocker. Read Nancy’s letter of recommendation written by Franklin Rose, of Beech Hill Museum (Secret of the Scarlet Hand).

Take the lighter on top of the jeans.

We have to find a way to check Lily’s and the other bunk later.

Play the board game in the camp tent:

Go to the middle table and see a board game. Play Senet.

Senet:    The object of the game is to get all your light brown pawns off the board.

The light colored casting sticks determine how many squares your selected pawn can move. If 4 dark colored sticks are cast, the pawn moves 5 squares. You can throw again if you get 1, 4 or 5 on the casting sticks.

Move your pawn to a blank square or a square that has your opponent’s pawn but not on your own. If you land on a square with your opponent’s pawn; you move him back to the square where you came from. This is a good strategy.

If a pawn is blocked by 2 or more consecutive opponents pawns; it cannot be moved or played until the number of blocker pawns are less than 2.

The square with the ankh, 3 dots and eye are safe places; the pawn that lands there cannot be bumped back.

The square with the bird must be landed on no matter what the casting stick show.

The water square bumps the pawn that lands there back to the ankh square above.

It is also good strategy to land on safe places so that the opponent settles on squares that it can be bumped back on.

If you play Senet often enough; you might win an award.

Exit the tent.

 Explore the antiquities tent:

Go to the tent at right and enter.

Left worktable:    Check the left worktable.

Take the bird (Hoopoe) tile left of the book.

See a stone with hieroglyph in a pan. Translate the hieroglyph by clicking the dictionary on the stone. Judge is he by the ancestors of Ra.

If you use the dictionary to translate often enough; you might win an award.

Pick up and read the crumpled paper right of the water bottle.  It’s an ad for survival guide for earth’s demolition. At top is a drawing of the eye of Horus and #. Learn that it is a Sonny Joon’s show about extraterrestrial aliens and space travel.

Shelves at middle wall of the tent:    Turn right to see 2 shelving. Look close at the wood shelves at right.

Take the brown book at middle shelf. Open and see the Official site grid. Based on the map taken from the left table, the main chamber and 3 tunnels are divided into squares and labeled.

Location where the cat amulet was taken:    Take note that the label at bottom left is N13E2.

Go back to the official site grid at middle wall shelf. See that N13E2 is at top end of tunnel 2 or middle tunnel.

See who else stuck around after the storm hit:

Exit the tent and go down to the pit ahead. Go through the tomb entrance.

Dr. Abdullah Bakhoum:    Turn left twice after entering the chamber. Talk to Abdullah standing right of the exit door.

Abdullah contends that he is the best archeologist and that this site is his. (He doesn’t lack belief in himself.)

He doesn’t like Lily even though she is part of his team.

Explore the main room:

Anubis hieroglyphs:    Abdullah wants you to practice translating hieroglyphs at top of where he is working.

Climb the ladder right of Abdullah. Use the dictionary on the hieroglyphs under the drawing of Anubis.

…according thereto. Let it be found inscribed on the tablet. As to anyone who does not know this spell, he shall never enter.

Worktable:    Go to the worktable at center of the room.  Take the spade from the table.

Explore the tunnels:

Tunnel 1:    Go the hallway at left.

See hieroglyphs left and right of the entryway. Use dictionary to translate: Twice is my hiding place opened. Thy bones shall not be destroyed and thy flesh shall not perish.

Go forward. The hallway before the dead end there is hieroglyph above the doorway. Use the dictionary to translate and get: I speak that which I wish to his mummy. It becometh strong.

Check the doorway at the dead end and see a cat depicted. Go back to the main room.

Tunnel 2:    Let’s go to N13E2; the site where they found the cat amulet pieces. Go left from tunnel 1 entryway or forward through the entrance across the main entryway.

Go forward until the turn to the right and then left and forward to the end.

Use the shattered pieces to completely rebuild the amulet #2:

See a pile of soil at right. Nancy confirms that this is the site where the cat amulet pieces were found.

Use the shovel taken from the main room on the pile of dirt to get an amulet piece.

Look at the birds and tiger mural on the wall. See a bird tile on right side of the mural. It’s stuck! Use the pick on the tile to get bird (vulture) tile.

Exit tunnel 2.

Pick up the cat amulet.

Tunnel 3:    Go back to the tomb. Enter the hallway at left when facing the main entryway.

Scarab puzzle:    Go forward until the first light stand.

Turn left from the light stand and see a scarab puzzle. The red scarab is missing.

Sons of Horus hieroglyph:     Back up from the scarab puzzle.

Check the hieroglyph at top of the wall right of the entryway. Nancy says that it must be important since the passage starts and ends with jackal symbol.

Try the dictionary on it and it makes no sense. Crazy!

In close up of the puzzle, click on a standalone – single glyph; like the feather at start of 4th line and see the frequency it occurs in the passage. Click on letter I at top of the page. See that all of that kind of glyph is now labeled I.

Decode the rest of the glyphs by selecting it and then click on the letter above that you think is the letter that works.

Click on the erase at top right to erase a highlighted entry.

Nancy needs to find the sons of Horus the falcon headed god.

Come ye hither Gods in the train of Horus

And let the steps ascend

We are the four of Horus

I am the air that sweeps up the Nile

I am the Hunter who faces to greet

the new day

I am Imsety protector of the south

I am the cry that soars towards the

setting sun together we the Gods in

the train of Horus guard the corners

Find the burial chamber:

Continue forward until the end. See a door filled with hieroglyphs at the dead end of the hallway.

Slider hieroglyphs:    Look at left wall and Nancy says this must be the one mentioned on Jon’s notes (last page). The tomb within sealed behind her titles. Acknowledge them fully with no gaps from left to right and it shall be opened according thereto. Let it be…

See 6 bars with glyphs in the frame. Below are squares that show the glyphs of the column above it. The 5th bar is fixed.

The object of the puzzle is to arrange the slider bars in a way that shows only one kind of glyph in one column and that all the squares at the bottom show glyphs.

    

The door at right opens.

Turn back to the slider. Use the dictionary on the glyphs at the bottom to translate it. Great King’s Wife, Lady of the Two Lands, Beloved of Mut.

Burial chamber:    Examine the door. It still has the seal. It is not opened yet.

Touch the seal and it breaks. Ooops!

Enter and use the flashlight. See a tomb ahead.

Lily enters and checks the tomb. Abdullah follows (Brilliant); as well as 2 other people.

Suddenly, Abdullah who is reading the hieroglyphs on the wall says to exit the room immediately. Lily says it’s the curse.

B.  If one is lighter, take off the heavier one and work on the 5 lighter mice.

Use the remaining 5:  2 on each pan and one in reserve. Check which is lighter.

If the scales are even, the one in reserve is the lightest.

If not even, use the 2 from the light pan and weigh.

They arrive on six feet or soaring wings, with a howl or a bleat, the ancient reptile leading the way.

Underneath a blazing sun, the jackal joins the mix of hearts that stand as one betwixt the sky and the Underworld.

Dressed in red, she is joined by the child. As the evening dew appears in the cat’s footprints, they learn of knowledge (looks like a snake to me).
