Dodge the room with the traps and go to the back. The Ancient Artifact rewards pillar is in the center, surrounded by three rooms, each with a round, turnable symbol. Look for a map with three “X” marks on it. These are the locations where you will find the symbols’ correct alignment.

It all began in the ’80s when I was just 7 years old. Starting with basic arcade games, I soon delved into titles like Loom and Monkey Island by Lucasarts. Throughout the years, as I indulged in more and more games, I consistently sought clear guides to swiftly navigate my gameplay. Now, it’s my turn to contribute back to the community.
