II. Introduction
*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*

This was made to help those that need Museum/Monster help. We tried to add as
much as we could think of to help. This is more of a Companion guide to our
Walkthrough. We felt our walkthrough was getting a bit long and crowded.
This is not a needed thing in the game to beat it. This is only if you want
to complete the game 100 percent. We will probably update as needed just like
the walkthrough.

=================
III. Museum Diagram
=================

This is a rough Diagram of what the Museum looks like and the location of
each monsters that is on Display. This should help those that are unsure
which monster they are missing. (There is 44 Total spots in the Museum)
You only need to capture 35 of them to fill up the Museum though.

list all the monsters you need to capture or buy farther in this guide.

Note: Electric Armadillo and Fire Armadillo take up one display Space
together.

the Museum when you first get to it.

===================
3. Monsters You Buy
===================

These are the Monsters you need to Buy in order to fill up your Museum and
to complete a Monster List.

    Monster\'s Name      How much it Cost
------------------------------------------

1.  Shuttlecock Bird    900 Scarabs
2.  Featherless Turkey  700 Scarabs
3.  Shell Critter       360 Scarabs
4.  Mummy Bird          300 Scarabs
5.  Rat                 100 Scarabs
6.  Small Frog          070 Scarabs

When you start the game you are limited with only holding 400 scarabs in
your bag, pouch at one time which means you can only buy number 3, 4, 5,
and 6.

To buy number 1 and 2 you need to get the Larger Scarab Bag which holds 900
Scarabs at one time. 

Here is how you get the Larger Scarab bag:

After you Acquire the Fourth Stolen Jewel (which is roughly over half way
through the game) give the jewel to the Jewel person in the Museum. They
will give you the Parasol. Take that parasol to the guy (it\'s the same one
you gave money to in abydos) in the watch tower in Bedouin Outpost. To get a
Larger Scarab bag that will hold 900 scarabs and then you can buy 1 and 2
from the list above.

================
4. Monster Trade
================

This is the only monster you need to Trade for to Complete your Museum.

The Goofy Lizard

You get the Goofy Lizard by Winning all four Medals from the four
Mini-Games. The Mini-Games are:

1. Paneb\'s Pair Matching Place Mini-Game

Located near the guy/bum you give money to.

2. Tefnut\'s Target Tavern Mini-Game

Located near where you get the Goofy Lizard, down the corridor at the end of
the big Bridge.

3. Sorkon\'s Sequence Shack Mini-Game

Located near the guy/bum you give money to.

4. Corridor of Champions Mini-Game

Located between the Stairs (where you used the Stairs key at) and the Museum.

To make monsters respawn, you need to leave an area and get a loading screen,
NOT a Ankh Loading screen a Loading screen, that actually says Sphinx and the
Cursed Mummy then go back in.

                   V. Monster Frequently Asked Questions
                  =======================================

1.

Q. Where do I get a WASP SPIDER?

A. You run into many of them through the story, but if you missed them you
can get one from Anubis\'s Tower. In the room with fire and Monkey Bars, it\'s
the room to the left if you are facing the color memory puzzle.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

2.

Q. What is Almost-A-Bull/how will I know I have found it and where can I
find one?

A. Almost-A-Bull is a creature that looks similar to a bull with a flat face
and once you hit it, Almost-A-Bull will shrink in size. It will continue to
shrink with every hit until it dies. To find one go to the ruins you found
the Rosetta Stone in and go to where the fire armadillos respawn.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

3.

Q. Do I need to capture monsters to beat the game?

A. No, it\'s just a Side quest and it\'s not needed unless you want to complete
the game 100 percent. You get nothing of use just the hunter certificate.
