003-Walkthrough
---------------------------------------------------------

003a-Egypt and the Heart of Midas
---------------------------------------------------------

Our hero, Samantha Swift, is in Alexandria, Egypt. She
hopes to find Alexander the Great's scroll of wealth.

Screen 1
--------

Samantha's things have been scattered everywhere. A list of
them is on the bottom of the screen. Find all the items and
click on them.

The location of the items is randomized. For example, the
shovel can show up against the left doorway or the right
doorway. The list of items you need to find is also
randomized, although some items will appear every single
time. When you find them, they go into the "tool" area on
the bottom/right.

Sam's scanner will show what an item looks like. Just click
an item on the list, then click the scanner. Not only that,
but item shown in the scanner changes color, depending on
how close your cursor is to the item.

When you've found all eight items, a list of eight more
items appears. The final item, Alexander's helmet, is blue.
This indicates that you have to solve a small puzzle to
find it.

In this case, the puzzle is using Samantha's scarf on the
hole in the ground, which is to the left. Your cursor turns
blue when you move it over this hole, which is the clue
that you need to use a tool there.

After finding all sixteen items, you have another puzzle.
Use the shovel on the dirt, on the right-hand side of the
screen. This reveals a chest. Use the monk's key on the
chest to open it.

When you finish the puzzle, you can go forward, through the
open doorway in the center of the screen. This takes you to
the next room.
