During this first part of the walkthrough, follow these
directional abbreviations to guide you to the necessary
locations/items.

At different locations throughout the game, visions of Isis,
Osiris, and the Priestess will appear. Listen to what they say as
they will give clues. You can rehear their clues by pushing the
Play button that appears on the screen after the first time you
hear it. This Play button will always appear anytime you are in
the exact location/direction of when you first heard the message.

You are in Osiris Court. Go F,L Priestess appears with message to
find HorusAmulet and restore it to him. Go F, F and you are
standing in front of the door to the Great Court of Horus. Open
it. Go F, F, F and you will be standing in front of the Statue of
Horus. Go F, L, F, R, D and pick up HorusAmulet (to pick up, click
the "hand" on it; automatically it will be transferred to your
inventory). Note there is a video-tape machine next to the Amulet.
You can't do anything with this until you have put the Amulet in
Horuschest. Go U, R, R, R, F, L, F, L, L to again stand in front

Next, click on the scroll on the desk and the scroll will open.
If you move the cursor over the right side of the opened scroll,
to the right-pointing finger, and click, you will read more of the
scroll. Keep clicking on the side until the entire scroll is read.
Note one scroll page with symbols of the four elements (air, fire,
water and earth) and another page with symbols for the four
directions (North, East, South and West) -- these eight symbols
are needed to solve the Obelisk Puzzle. Note other pages talk

the east bank (Anubis, Horus, and Urn of Wheat).

The Snake Puzzle Scroll Hints

The Snake Puzzle

Note that the Snake Puzzle abstractly looks like a pyramid with
four number disks on each of the three sides (4 on left, 4 on
right, 4 on bottom). Note that there are six snakes, each with two
heads, a number disk in each head. Disks numbered 10, 11, and 12
are fixed. To solve this puzzle, the sums of the 4 disks on each
side of the pyramid must total 26, and at the same time, the sum
of the two heads of each snake must total 13. Once you have done
this correctly, the drawer will open and you can pick up the Eye
of Horus.

Now, we want to go back and look at the video tape that was next
to the Amulet of Horus we found on the floor below. We also have
to find the four Element Keys.

Before we leave the PriestessRoom, go back to the desk across the
room.  Don't look Down. Move the cursor over the wall above the
desk until it turns into a hand Click the hand to open the secret
cache. Click on the Element Key for Air and it transfers to your
inventory.

Go back downstairs to the Great Court of Horus to find the video
tape on the floor. Push the blue button to activate the video and
listen to it. When you come Up from the tape, Priestess appears
with message about the Travelers.

Go into the Great Hall to the side of the Altar facing the
Library. Move the cursor around the base of the altar until it
turns into a hand. Click the hand to open the secret cache.  Click
on the Element Key for Fire and it transfers to your inventory.

Leave the interior of the Great Court of Horus back out into
Osiris Court. (Before you leave, you might want to wander around
to see if you can trigger any more appearances of the Priestess
with messages and clues.)

Two steps out the door, turn left to the water pool. Move the
cursor till it becomes a hand and click to retrieve the Element
Key for Water and transfer it to your inventory.

Go U, R, F,F,F to the door of the Isis Chamber. Move the cursor
till it becomes a hand and click to focus on the door combination.
Enter any one of the four combinations (noted earlier) to open the
door. Enter the Isis Chamber. Once inside, Isis will appear with a
message (you might have to turn left once to trigger the
appearance). Her message will be a clue to getting past one of the
Isis Gates in the Labyrinth. After her message, an item will
appear on the floor. Click on the item to transfer it to your
inventory. Leave the Isis Chamber, turn around. Repeat these
instructions for all four of the combinations, hearing four total
messages with clues to the four gates in the Labyrinth, and
receiving four total items: a golden Ankh, a golden Urn of Wheat
Offering, a golden statue of Anubis Offering, and a Golden statue
of Horus Offering.

Back in the Osiris Court, head towards the Boat Dock. Notice the
two clay pots on either side of the Dock. Facing the dock, the
left-hand pot contains the fourth Element Key of Earth. Find it,
click on it to transfer it to your inventory.

Go to the Obelisk in the Courtyard. Right click your mouse
and push the Help Button; turn the pages of the help book until
you come to the glyphs for the four directions. Note which one is
East.

At the Obelisk, walk around it (there are four sides, one for each
direction) until you find the glyph for East on the Obelisk. Go
forward for a closeup of that direction. On the top of the Obelisk
your cursor turns to a hand. Click until the Ankh glyph appears,
that back away. You have just set one of the four Obelisks to
East.

Wander around the Osiris Court to see if you can trigger any more
visions.

Go to the front of the statue of Osiris. Move the Eye of Horus
from your inventory to the indentation on the base of the statue
in the shape of the eye. This opens the stairway down into The
Dark Way. Go down the stairway and forward to the room with the
orb above the four-sided pedestal, with four doors other than the
one you came in.

Drag the four Element Keys in your inventory onto the
corresponding side of the pedestal. When you have all four in
place, push the Earth Element Key on the pedestal to open the
doorway. Go down the open door tunnel and pick up the bucket of
dirt which transfers to your inventory. A gap appears in the wall
before you, but you can't do anything with it yet.

Go back to the Orb Room and push the Element Key for Water. Go
down the open door tunnel and pick up the bucket of water which
transfers to your inventory. Move the cursor around until a hand
appears over a "scale". Drag the bucket of dirt from your
inventory onto the "scale" to trigger a bridge over the moat
surrounding the Obelisk. Go to the Obelisk and set this Obelisk to
East as well. (Same as you did to the Obelisk in the Courtyard)

Go back to the Orb Room and push the Element Key for Fire.  Go
down the open door tunnel and click on the torch on the wall which
transfers to your inventory. Go the rest of the way down the
tunnel and drag the bucket of water from your inventory onto the
fire to put it out. Go further down the tunnel to the Obelisk, and
again set this one to East.

Go back to the Orb Room and push the Element Key for Earth again.
Go to the end of the tunnel and drag the torch from your inventory
onto the gap in the wall before you to open the door. Go further
until you find the Obelisk. Set this one, too, to East.

Go back to the Orb Room and push the Element Key for Air.  Go to
the end of the tunnel into the organ room. The door shuts behind
you. The only way to open the door to get out is to solve the
organ puzzle. Listen to the sounds being played. You must make the
pipes in the puzzle sound the same tune. The solution looks as
below. When the hand appears, click it to play the pipes in order
from right to left as they appear in the rack. You have to move
the pipes around in the rack until they look like this and play
the same song.  When successful, the door will open again. There
is no Obelisk. here.

When you've solved the Organ puzzle and set all four Obelisks to
East, the Boat from across the river will be waiting for you at
the dock. Leave the Dark Way back to the surface.

When you step back into the courtyard and the statue of Osiris
moves back to cover the stairway to the Dark Way, turn around and
click on the Eye of Horus you put in the Osiris statue's base, to
put the Eye of Horus back in your inventory. You will need the Eye
later in the game, and if you don't pick it up now, you'll have to
come back for it.

Go to the Boat Dock. Go forward to the end of the dock, turn left
and forward to the boat. Turn left and face the altar. This is
where you place the three offerings you received from Isis:  The
Golden Urn, the Golden Anubis, and the Golden Horus. Drag each
item into it's cubbyhole in the altar. From left to right: Urn,
Anubis, Horus. To get successfully across the river to the East
Bank, you must get all three offerings across without them eating
each other. You can only carry one offering at a time, so:

At the West Bank altar, click on the Horus and take the Horus
across the river and place it in the East Bank altar on the other
side. Come back across the river (empty-handed).

At the West Bank altar, click on the Urn and take the Urn across
the river and place it in the East Bank alter there.  Pick up the
Horus in the East Bank altar and bring it back across and put it
in the West Bank altar.

At the West Bank altar, click on the Anubis and take the Anubis
across the river and place it in the East Bank alter there. Come
back across the river (empty-handed).

At the West Bank altar, click on the Horus and take the Horus
across the river and place it in the East Bank altar on the other
side. You have successfully solved the Boat puzzle.
