Description
Welcome to Tut's Tablet , a treasure hunt within a maze-puzzle!
50 MYSTERIOUS CHALLENGES TO SOLVE!
Objective: Find the Secret Path to Tut's Treasure!
How to play: Choose a challenge from the booklet and place it in the tablet case. Place the Cryptic Cube on the starting square that matches the colors on the top and sides of the cube. To find the secret path to the treasure, you must roll the Cryptic Cube from square to square, always matching the color on the top of the cube with the color on the square below it. When you reach the square with the coin, you have solved the challenge.
So what are you waiting for? Can you find Tut's treasure?
WARNING! Before starting each new challenge, make sure the Cryptic Cube is oriented correctly. The colors on the top and sides of the cube must match the colors of the starting square of each challenge.
Rolling the Cryptic Cube : The spherical vertices of the Cryptic Cube allow it to be rolled from square to square on the Tablet grid.
There are 50 challenges across four difficulty levels that correspond to four different ways to move the Cryptic Cube.
LEVEL 1: ROLL
You can only roll the Cryptic Cube forward, backward, left, or right to an adjacent colored square. Remember, when rolling, the color on top of the cube must always match the colored square below it after each roll. Also, note that during a roll, the orientation of the hieroglyph/symbol on the cube does not have to match the orientation shown on the printed challenge – this is allowed.
LEVEL 2: ROLLING AND SLIDING
The rules of LEVEL 1 plus you can slide the Cryptic Cube forward, backward, left or right over adjacent squares of the same color.
LEVEL 3: ROLL AND ROTATE
The rules of LEVEL 1, plus the ability to rotate the Cryptic Cube by 0°, 90° or 270° to specific colored squares with a circle.
LEVEL 4: ROLL, SLIDE AND JUMP
The rules of LEVEL 1 and 2, plus the ability to jump with the Cryptic Cube forward, backward, left or right to the other side of the grid only when the cube is on a square on the edge of the grid and the opposite square is of the same color.
