You have found the secret scroll of the time lords, but the torches you left along the way are going out.
Gameplay
- You can briefly see everything at the start of a level before the torch goes out.
- Find your way out through the darkness.
- Collect the key and find the door.
- Avoid enemies (snakes, mummies, spikes, spiders and dancing Egyptians).
- Eye of Ra activates your third eye, and for a brief moment you can see the chamber again.
