How do I get the phosphorus into the oscilloscope?

Once you have the oscilloscope in the drawbridge box,
turn it on and place the phosphorus on the screen. If

the phosphorus. Try going back to the apothocary and
trading in your yellow bottle for a bottle of
phosphorus, which will have been marked down.

Q:
|
How do I get the dynamite?
|
|
A:

Morse Code for dynamite is:
__ .. __ . __ __ __ .. __ __ __ .. __ .
Tap your dashes long and your dots short. When you tap this
out on the telegraph correctly, Dandy Don from KCOW will
deliver your dynamite.

|
Q:
|
I used the dynamite to blow up the entrance to the
mine before I got the shawl. Now I need to use it again
to re-enter the mine, how do I get it back?
|
|
A:
|
Unfortunately, you can't. You must start the level over
again, and wait until you have the shawl before you use
the dynamite. If you would like a saved game file that
starts you at the beginning of level 2, clickhere to
request one by email. Please specify whether you are
using PC or Mac.
|
|
Q:
|
I'm hopelessly lost in the mine, where should I go?
|
|
A:
|
The inside of the mine is a maze. Weave your way
through the maze until you find the wooden planks on
the ground. We suggest tracking your path on a piece of
paper so you don't get lost. When you click the center
of the wall next to the planks a tile puzzle will be
revealed. The map should indictate all this. If you
become really desperate and have your hints activated,
go to hints and a "magic button" will take you out of
the mine.
|
|
Q:
|
What pattern am I supposed to make with the shapes
on the wall in the mine puzzle?
|
|
A:
|
You will need to bring the patterned shawl with you
into the mine. Arrange the pattern in the puzzle so
that it matches the pattern on the shawl, and you will
be rewarded with gold!

miles. Set the meter on your right at 50 as well.

What are the last two hieroglyphic symbols needed to
complete the code on the wall?

accross a middle line. You will find the 6 in the third
column from the left, and the 7 in the eighth column
from the left, on the bottom half of the wall.
