In Tombs & Treasure, you'll have to use your wits in order for your party to successfully make its way through the ruins. As you enter such sites as El Castillo and the Ball Court, you'll have to use collected items in innovative ways in order to attain vital clues and progress. Each screen you encounter will feature items and peculiarities that must been looked at, taken, pushed, pulled, moved, smashed, joined, and/or washed in order to advance. Occasionally, you will confront monsters and engage in a classic RPG-style fight, your final battle versus the demon Tentacula. Be sure to refer to Professor Imes' journal in order to gain essential clues. You'll need them in order to survive the Tombs & Treasure.
