So, I'm in the mines and can't get to the elevator. Apparently, I'm screwed because you ABSOLUTELY need to block the minecart's way before it hits the elevator. How the hell was I supposed to know ? Oh well, old games design... Whatever. Problem is, I have done the egypt and london chapters... On a single save. That is, not only I'm completely stuck with no turning back, but I have to start the game over from the beginning ! And frankly, I don't feel like starting the game over, the london chapter really got on my nerves with the damned mob and the police all over the place, and the multiple tripwire death I had to suffer through the pyramid don't help either.

So, what I'm getting at is : Anybody has a save that takes place in the beginning of the mines chapter, and has the pyramid and london chapters already completed ? That'd be sweet. Otherwise I'll just have to delete the game and never mention it again in my life :D (I was raised on the "lucasarts" school of adventure games : no dead ends, no intrusive deaths)

Oh well, nevermind, that post was written in a fit of frustration and rage. I ended up restarting the game !

Fun game. But so unfair...

i know your pain man . i had london done as well as pyramid and graveyard. then my pc crashed.... shit hey. but whatever its worth doing again

Honestly, if I own a game and find that you can "screw" yourself and have to start over, I straight up delete it. I can't stand that sort of design, and don't waste my time playing games that feel it is acceptable.

This isn't helpful and this thread is old, but I just felt like complaining.

You're a baby and shouldn't be playing games

woah you must be a total badass

Thanks!

That happened to me the first time I played the mine chapter too. I used a walkthrough and there just happens to be one out there with the wrong information for dealing with that minecart.

Freakin Eh! Can someone please tell me the weights needed-precisely which ones on which side- for the damn last puzzle on level six after right after rescuing the princess, before the priest? I am Stuck! Thank you if you can. I played this game when it first came out 20 some years ago and I loved it, but was playing with my ex-mother-in-law, so had another thinker. On my own, I just get pissed!
