(NOTE: under emulation, check CAPS LOCK status if commands are not recognized)
"Temple of the Sun" is more of a treasure hunt than a true adventure. Most of the
critical objects are randomized and hidden, so as you navigate, be sure to EXAMINE ROOM everywhere.
This walkthrough will tour the rooms, but omits the EXAMINE ROOM commands for brevity.
You will need to acquire these items to win (SCORE to check progress):
ROBE OF FEATHERS (WEAR ROBE)
TEETH OF GOLD
FEATHERED MASK OF GOLD (WEAR FEATHERED)
CHARRED WOOD (GET CHARRED)
POUCH AND APRON MADE OF DEER SKIN (WEAR POUCH)
CROWN OF GOLD AND FEATHERS (WEAR CROWN)
And AVOID these items:
COTTON ROBE
CEREMONIAL MASK
SNAKES (can KILL or ignore them)
Other items can be taken or left.
