002-Story
---------------------------------------------------------

Samantha Swift is on a quest to find the hidden roses of 
Athena. There are six of them, and they're hidden in 
various countries in the world. Can she get all of them 
before the villains do?

out sometimes during the game.

Ravena Stryker: A poser archaeologist who tends to let 
her goons do all the work for her. She dislikes coming in 
second place.

power of Athena for himself.

Athena: The Greek goddess of wisdom, war, and heroic 
endeavor, among other things. The city of Athens is named 
after her.

004-Walkthrough
---------------------------------------------------------

004a-Athens and the Scepter of Zeus
---------------------------------------------------------

The game begins with Samantha Quick setting foot in 
Athens to find the legendary Scepter of Zeus. Her friend 
Dr. Butler is there to help out over the radio.

Screen 1
--------

Of course, this game starts off with a basic introduction 
to how the game works. You have a list of twelve 
different things which are on the screen. Your goal is to 
find all these objects and click on them.

For example, one of the objects you're looking for is a 
knife. There's a knife under the base of the tree. Click 
on the knife, and it gets scratched off the list of items 
to find.

The most important item to find is the scanner (the 
green, circular thing) in the bottom/middle of the 
screen). The scanner will show you a silhouette of what 
you're looking for. Try it out by clicking on the word 
"shovel" on your "objects to find list", then click on 
the scanner. See? A picture of the shovel shows up, which 
should make it easier to find. (Clicking randomly too 
often momentarily disables the scanner)

There are also lightning bolt hints. If you find a 
lightning bolt, click on it to add it to the hint counter 
in the lower/right. If you're ever stuck and can't find 
something you need to find, you can always use a hint to 
have its location shown to you.

Finding objects isn't all there is to this game, however; 
you also have to solve puzzles. The blue items on the 
"items to find" list, which is the PDA in this case, are 
hidden by puzzles. You have to use tools to solve the 
puzzles.

Go to the tool list by clicking the "tool" tab right 
above the "items" tab to see what tools Samantha has. In 
this case, Samantha has the knife and shovel that she 
found on this screen. (Obviously, if you haven't found 
the knife or shovel yet, you can't use them as tools). 

Use the knife as a tool on the green vines on the left-
hand side of the screen. You can tell which vines to cut, 
because your cursor turns blue when it's over the right 
ones. Cutting the vines reveals the PDA.

Now that you've found all 12 items, there's a thirteenth 
bonus item you can find! In most cases, you have to find 
the bonus item in order to proceed in the game. Here, 
it's the Golden Owl you have to find. Use the shovel tool 
on the pile of dirt on the right-hand side of the screen 
to find the Golden Owl, then use the owl on the door on 
the left to open it. You can then go through the door to 
enter the next room.

Screen 2
--------

Just like the last screen, you have to find twelve items, 
then the thirteenth bonus item.

Now, you might have noticed there are about twenty or so 
items on the screen. The twelve you have to find are 
actually randomly picked from the list of twenty, so that 
each time you play the game, you get a different set of 
items to find.

However, some items will ALWAYS be on a particular 
screen, namely, the tools needed to solve the puzzles on 
the screen. So I'm just going to list all the tools and 
puzzles throughout this walkthrough, because those are 
the items which are NOT randomized.

Tool #1: Crowbar in the lower left.

Tool #2: A helmet above a block, on the bottom of the 
screen, in the center. 

Tool #3: Water jug on the plants on the right side of the 
screen.

Tool #4: Armor, right below the water jug.

Tool #5: A chisel is standing upright in a groove on the 
left, upright pillar.

Puzzle #1: Use the water jug tool on the broken rocks in 
the middle part of the screen, in front of the large, 
gray stone block. This washes dust off of a rock to 
reveal drawing of a boat.

Puzzle #2: Use the crowbar tool on the broken pillar on 
the left-hand side of the screen. This gets you the lance 
item.

Puzzle #3: Use the chisel on the large, gray stone block 
between the two columns. Do this a few times to reveal a 
statue. Put the helmet, armor and lance items on the 
statue. This lets you get the broken shield, which sort 
of looks like a broken shield Samantha has at her museum.

Getting the shield opens a pathway further underground. 
Go through the path to get to the next screen.

Screen 3
--------

Cool, do you have the hang of things yet? Find all the 
items, then solve puzzles as necessary. You're basically 
going to do that throughout this entire game: finding 
hidden objects and doing puzzle solving.

This room features a statue of Apollo overlooking a pool.

In this room, Dr. Butler will contact Samantha and tell 
her that she can zoom in on a plate on the wall to get a 
closer look at the puzzle you can't solve yet because 
some of the levers are missing.

Tool #1: The statuette is next to the locked door on the 
right.

Tool #2: A brush, at the base of the rightmost pillar on 
the screen.

Tool #3: The axe, which is the thirteenth item, is at the 
base of the leftmost pillar, in easy view.

Puzzle #1: Use the brush on the wall left of Apollo. The 
dust that is brushed off reveals a Greek letter called 
"alpha". Fun fact: Alpha is the first letter in the Greek 
alphabet. In fact, it's where the world ALPHAbet comes 
from.

Puzzle #2: Use the axe on the broken wall on the left to 
break through it.

Screen 4
--------

This screen, I think, contains the first item which is 
not randomized, but is also not a tool. That's the torch 
near the entrance Samantha used to get into this room. 
Taking the torch causes a cave-in. Oh no!

Also in this room, near the skeleton, are notes on the 
wall. Could they be a clue to an unsolved puzzle?

Tool #1: A lever is sitting upside-down on a rock in the 
mid-left part of the screen.

Tool #2: A statue is near the pool of water, in front of 
it. It's gray and tiny.

Tool #3: A lever is on the leg bone of the skeleton. 
Ew...

Tool #4: The miner's pick is in the upper/left corner of 
the screen, trying to hide as part of the background.

Puzzle #1: Use the miner's pick on the rocks in the 
gutter to get water flowing. This reveals a key inside 
the gutter.

Puzzle #2: Use the key on the door with a design in the 
background. The design looks like the key handle.

Screen 3 Again
--------------

We're back in Apollo's room, but now we have levers. Zoom 
in on the puzzle on the wall, the one that's missing 
levers. Of course, you want to put the missing levers 
into their proper places.

The clue in Screen 4 has three pointing down and two 
pointing up. So make the left three levers point down, 
and make the right two levers point up. Tada! You solved 
the puzzle, and the door is now opened!

Screen 5
--------

There's an ornate, golden circular piece on the wall 
here. I bet it's part of a puzzle!

Tool #1: A statuette is leaning against the leftmost 
pillar in the room, right near the doorway used to get 
into the room.

Tool #2: A hand shovel is in the middle of the screen, 
resting against rocks and orange flowers.

Puzzle #1: Use the shovel on the dirt in the 
bottom/middle of the screen to dig in the dirt and find a 
wheel hub.

Puzzle #2: Use the wheel hub on the circular piece on the 
wall.

Puzzle #3: There are three openings on the circular 
design! Use the three statuettes on the openings. Each 
opening takes a particular statuette to open it.

First, put the statuette that fits in the innermost wheel 
in place. Then rotate the wheel so the statue is facing 
down. (The wheel changes color when you snap it into 
place). Then, do the same thing with the middle wheel, 
then the outer wheel. When all three statuettes are on 
the wheel, and all three parts of the wheel are rotated 
so it's facing down, something happens.

Screen 3 Again
--------------

Hey, it's Dancing Apollo! The Apollo statue dances out of 
the way, leading you straight to the treasure room.

Screen 6
--------

All right, a room full of gold and treasure! Looks like 
the budget problems that Samantha's museum is having are 
now officially OVER! Let's loot the treasure!

Tool #1: There is a golden scoop in the middle of the 
screen, sitting on the gold, in front of an open treasure 
chest.

Puzzle #1: Easy enough! The only tool you have is a 
scoop, so use it on the pile of gold in the middle of the 
room to find a key.

Puzzle #2: Also easy! Use the key on the locked treasure 
chest. This gets you a sun pendant!

Puzzle #3: Not so easy. Use the sun pendant on the little 
knob sticking out of the treasure box containing the sun 
pendant. You get the Scepter of Zeus.

All right! Samantha found the Scepter of Zeus, along with 
a bunch of artifacts and a lot of gold! This is a pretty 
successful dig, wouldn't you say? Let's leave now.

UH OH!!! The evil Ravena Stryker is here, waiting for 
Samantha. Ravena and her goons steal the Scepter of Zeus.

Oh well, at least we got some cool stuff for the museum.

004b-Italy and the Rose of Industry
---------------------------------------------------------

At the Museum of Secrets Lost in New York, Samantha and 
Dr. Butler examine the shield. Hey, the half of the 
shield Samantha found looks almost exactly like the half 
of the shield the museum has! In fact, when they put the 
two halves of the shield together...

THEY GET ONE WHOLE SHIELD!

And not just ANY shield! It's the Shield of Athena!

Legend has it that if you have all six Roses of Athena 
and put them on this shield, you obtain the Power of 
Athena. I don't know what that means, but it sounds good, 
so let's find all six roses!

Adam Woodson is here to help. He examines the symbols on 
the shield and deduces that the Rose of Industry is in 
Rome. Who's in the mood for pasta?

Screen 1
--------

Screen 1 is an excavation site. The excavation is 
actually so big that it fills two whole screens. You need 
some items from Screen 1 to solve puzzles in Screen 2, 
and you need items from Screen 2 to solve puzzles in 
Screen 1. So, go back and forth between the two screens 
to get everything you need.

What I like to do is start with Screen 2, and find the 
items there. Then, I finish Screen 1 and return to Screen 
2.

Screen 2
--------

Tool #1: A chainsaw is in the lower/right corner, near 
Samantha's head. Look out, Samantha!

Tool #2: A red lever is standing upright to the right of 
the right pillar.

Tool #3: A magnifying glass is on top of one of the rocks 
blocking the entrance to the temple.

Tool #4: A hammer is in front of some rocks, just under 
the crook of the crane.

Tool #5: An artifact, which is a golden statue head, is 
on the triangular piece being held up by two columns.

Tool #6: Another golden artifact is in front of the rock 
next to the crane. 

Screen 1
--------

Tool #1: Artifact 1, which is a golden thing, is sitting 
on top of one of the gray cases.

Puzzle #1: Artifact 2 is inside the other gray case. Use 
the hammer on the gray case to open it.

Puzzle #2: Use the chainsaw on the little green tree to 
find the blue lever.

Screen 2 (again)
----------------

Tool #7: Get the paper clip by using the magnifying glass 
on the wheels of the crane. You can then go inside the 
crane to find some puzzles.

Puzzle #1: Use the paper clip in the keyhole to turn on 
the crane.

Puzzle #2: Use the blue lever on the lever spot, and the 
red lever on the other lever spot. Pull the blue lever 
and then pull the red lever. 

Screen 3
--------

We're now inside the ruins, which have green ivy all over 
the ceiling.

Tool #1: A saw is on the lower left, resting on one the 
legs of the ladder.

Tool #2: The cane is on the rightmost side of the screen, 
to the right of a little alcove.

Puzzle #1: Use the cane on the shield hanging from the 
ceiling (the one that is swaying left and right). This 
knocks it over and reveals a jewel.

Puzzle #2: Use the saw on the single board of wood that 
is being propped up on the second floor. This reveals an 
artifact piece.

Puzzle #3: You now have five artifact pieces. See the 
cloth on the right wall? Zoom in on the cloth and 
reassemble the statue, using the five artifact pieces. 
Once you put a piece on the cloth, you can rotate it 360 
degrees, and if you put it in the right place on the 
outline, it snaps into place so you can't move it 
anymore.

Finishing the statue opens the door.

Screen 4
--------

This room has a little pool in it, and TWO exits. Let's 
go through the first exit, then return, then go through 
the second exit. Of course, there are puzzles blocking 
both exits.

Tools #1-4: Four coins are lying on the floor, in plain 
sight.

Tool #5: A fifth coin is lying hidden behind the yellow 
flowers near Samantha's head. It is on the left-hand edge 
of the flowers.

Tool #6: A crowbar is lying on the ground behind the 
pool.

Tool #7: A chain is lying on the ground behind the pool, 
and on the left.

Tool #8: A chain is lying on the ground behind the pool, 
and on the right.

Puzzle #1: Use the crowbar on the large rock in the 
upper/right to find a column.

Puzzle #2: See the two loops in the ceiling? Hang the 
chains from them. Then put the column on the chains to 
form a battering ram. Click the column several times to 
make it move faster, and when it moves fast enough, it 
crashes into the debris which blocks the first exit.

Screen 5
--------

This room is a messy kitchen.

Tool #1: A coin is on top of a piggy bank on the floor.

Tool #2: A coin is on top of a brownish pan on the floor.

Tool #3: A fan is in the dirt near Samantha's head.

Tool #4: A magnet is against the left-hand edge of the 
screen, on the table.

Tool #5: A hook is in the corner of the room, near the 
torch.

Puzzle #1: Use the magnet on the upside-down bowl on the 
floor to get a coin.

Puzzle #2: Use the hook on the mouth of the fish (the one 
over the fireplace) to get a coin.

Puzzle #3: Use the fan on the spilled flour (from the 
yellow pot which is spilling over) to find a coin inside 
it.

Screen 4 (again)
----------------

You found ten coins in screen 4 and 5. Now put every 
single coin inside the water jug near the statue, and a 
new exit appears.

Screen 6
--------

We have four statues in this room. The door is open only 
when the statues are dressed properly, but some rascal 
put the statue pieces all over the room!

Tool #1: A sandal is on the debris in the bottom/middle 
of the room.

Tool #2: See the first column that is left of the door? 
The earring is at its base.

Tool #3: A mural block is on the debris in the 
bottom/middle of the room.

Tool #4: A mirror is on the torch on the right.

Tool #5: A mural block is to the right of the rightmost 
statue, level with the head of the statue.

Tool #6: A spear is behind the right statue. It looks 
like the statue is holding it, but it's not.

Tool #7: A brush is on the ceiling, above the rightmost 
statue's head.

Tool #8: A helmet is part of the design on the door.

Tool #9: A shield is part of the design on the door.

Tool #10: A necklace is hidden on the next of the white 
statue on the left. It's almost like the woman in this 
statue stole the necklace from the other woman statue. 

Puzzle #1: Use the brush on spiderwebs above the doorway, 
the ones that are blocking the little face. This reveals 
a crown.

Puzzle #2: The poor woman statue needs her accessories. 
Put the sandal, mirror, earrings, necklace and crown on 
her.

Puzzle #3: The poor man statue needs his accessories. Put 
the helmet, shield and spear on him.

Dressing up both statues makes them move aside as the 
doorway opens.

Screen 7
--------

Second-to-last room. This one has water on the ground, 
and it looks rather bland.

Tools #1-5: Mural blocks are scattered all over the room, 
but they're easier to find because they're big square 
blocks. The only one that might be hard to find is the 
one on the rim of the fountain.

Tool #2: A silver gear is above the fountain, on the 
right, lying on the dirt.

Tool #3: A bronze gear is on the leftmost pillar, hidden 
by flowers.

Tool #4: A hammer is on the dirt near the bottom/left 
corner of the screen.

Puzzle #1: Use the hammer on one of the white tiles on 
the floor. The proper tile touches the bottom edge of the 
screen, and it is to the right of the puddle of water. 
Breaking this tile reveals a mural block.

Puzzle #2: As you can guess, there's a mural puzzle on 
the exit door. Put all the mural blocks into place to 
form a mural of a woman, standing near a pillar and 
roses. Just like the last "put the pieces into place" 
puzzle, the pieces snap into place and change color when 
you put them into the correct spot. 

Screen 8
--------

This room is some kind of gear room.

Tools #1-3: Gears are lying on the ground.

Puzzle #1: Put the gears onto the gear spots. They are 
color-coded. So put the gold gear on the gold spot, the 
bronze gear on the bronze spot, etc. When all five are in 
place, pull the lever and you get the Rose of Industry. 
Great!

004c-Guatemala and the Rose of Conquest
---------------------------------------------------------

Our heroes examine the shield to learn that the next rose 
appears to be in Guatemala, although some of the markings 
don't fit. Dr. Butler points out that Ravena Stryker is 
currently running a major dig in that area, so it's 
probably the place we want to go to.

Screen 1
--------

Samantha starts out in a market. This is a multi-room 
puzzle, just like at the start of Rome. You have to go 
back and forth between the two screens until all the 
puzzles are solved.

Screen 2
--------

Uh oh, Ravena's goons are here! We're going to have to 
figure out how to get past them!

Tool #1: A baseball is at the bottom of the pinata stand.

Tool #2: A plank is near the baseball, next to a bucket.

Tool #3: A second plank is on the road, a bit further 
past the second goon.

Tool #4: A scoop is against the side of the purple stand, 
next to the broom.

There are no puzzles you can solve here yet, but you can 
use those tools to solve puzzles on the first screen.

Screen 1
--------

Tool #1: A camera is on a mat on the left. It's just 
below a sign pointing to the other part of the market.

Puzzle #1: Take a picture of the parrot with the camera. 
The parrot flies off and leaves you a feather.

Puzzle #2: Use the baseball on the boy. He trades you his 
marbles for the baseball.

Puzzle #3: Use the scoop on the sack of melons to find a 
brooch.

Screen 2
--------

Puzzle #1: Use the marbles on the goon on the left to get 
rid of him. You can then steal his nightstick.

Puzzle #2: Use the feather on the little boy to take care 
of the other goon. You can then take his watch and money.

Puzzle #3: You can use the nightstick on the pinata to 
get a golden mask. All puzzles in this room are now done!

Screen 1
--------

Puzzle #1: Give the money to the lady in order to 
purchase a map. Yes! The puzzles on the first two screens 
are done!

Screen 3
-------- 

Sam is now at the archeological site! Unfortunately, the 
bridge is out.

Tool #1-6: Six wooden planks are spread all over the 
screen.

Tool #2: A carving is to the right of the stairs in the 
upper/left.

Tool #3: A sonar kit is lying against a peg in the dig 
area. It's inthe far right.

Tool #4: A hand shovel is lying against a peg in the dig 
area. It's in the middle/right.

Puzzle #1: Put all the wooden planks back onto the bridge 
to rebuild it so Sam can get across.

Puzzle #2: Use the sonar on the dig area to see the 
location of the underground artifacts.

Puzzle #3: Use the shovel to dig out these artifacts. 
Press the mouse button to dig, or hold down the mouse 
button to dig constantly. There are nine artifacts to 
find! Three of them are different parts of a totem pole.

Screen 4
--------

You're now in the heart of Ravena's camp, with a tent and 
goon on guard. First, you'll have to distract the guard 
somehow so you can look at things in this area.

Puzzle #1: Use the coins on the water cooler to knock it 
over. The guard leaves to investigate.

Tool #1: Scissors are on the stone shelf on the left.

Tool #2: A stick of dynamite is against the base of the 
statue in the upper/right.

Tool #3: A canteen is partly hidden behind the statue in 
the upper/right.

Tool #4: A large stone is sitting on top of the board in 
the upper/right part of the screen.

Tool #5: Dynamite is on top of the green/brown case on 
the left side.

Puzzle #2: Use scissors on the tent to open the tent. 
Hey, they've got a totem pole piece inside! It's 
protected by security, though.

Tool #6: The key is inside the tent, on the gray case (on 
the right).

Puzzle #3: Use the key on the locked gray case (in the 
bottom/right corner) in order to get wire cutters.

Puzzle #4: Use the wire cutters on the wires that lead 
into the tent. These wires connect the tent to the 
bottom/right corner. This disables part of the security 
for the totem pole piece, so you can take it easily.

Puzzle #5: Uh oh, the totem pole piece was on a pressure 
sensor! We have to fool the sensor with an item of 
similar weight. Put the large rock on the sensor, then 
move on to the next area.

Screen 5
--------

Aha, we're at the cave which contains the Rose of 
Conquest! Kind of. Okay, not really. But we do need to 
get through to the other side of the cave.

Tool #1: A stick of dynamite is on the red case, in the 
upper/middle.

Tool #2: A stick of dynamite is near the crate on the 
left, inside the opening of the tent.

Tool #3: A metal detector is near the second stick of 
dynamite, inside the opening of the tent on the left. The 
end of it is sticking up out of the jar/pot.

Puzzle #1: Use the metal detector in the patch of dirt in 
the bottom/middle. This patch of dirt is roped off, 
indicating that it's a good place to dig. The metal 
detector beeps when you hold it over a key.

Puzzle #2: Use the key on the locked blue case to get the 
detonator (for the dynamite).

Puzzle #3: Put the four sticks of dynamite inside the 
four holes on the cave wall.

Puzzle #4: Put the detonator onto the red dynamite box 
and press it down. Kablooey! The wall explodes.

Screen 6
--------

We're at a river, and there are three places here that 
are designed to hold totem poles.

Tools #1-8: The totem pole parts are scattered all 
throughout this scene.

Puzzle #1: Make three totem poles! The base has a rounded 
bottom, the piece above the base looks like an owl, the 
piece above that is a man with a hat, and the top piece 
is rectangular. All three totem poles look exactly the 
same, and if one piece doesn't fit, try another!

Once the three totem poles are in place, they sink down. 
The river then gets blocked with a large piece of stone, 
and the way to go is revealed.

Screen 7
--------

Tool #1: A brown flute is in the upper/middle. It's to 
the right of the bats. Wait, bats? Oh no!

Tool #2: The brush is on a plant in the upper/left.

Tool #3: An ordinary gray stone is in the middle of the 
screen. Samantha collects the oddest things sometimes... 

Tool #4: A diamond is on the upper/middle of the screen. 
It is hidden by the stalactites.

Puzzle #1: Use the flute on the bats to make them go 
away. This reveals a skull.

Puzzle #2: Use the brush on the spider web to get a bag 
of gold.

Puzzle #3: Use the diamond on the white crystals in the 
right/middle (to the right of the gray path) to get a red 
ruby.

Puzzle #4: Use the stone on the white-ish crystals on the 
left side of the path (inside the cave). This knocks a 
stone into the path.

Puzzle #5: Use the bow on the pieces of wood that block 
the exit. Samantha then starts a fire in the middle of 
the jungle. This might not be the best idea she's ever 
had.

Screen 8
--------

This screen is very green. Oh joy.

Tools #1-4: The chameleons are all hidden in the leaves 
of the jungle. Two are on the left, one is on the right, 
and one is above the path.

Tool #5: The jaguar is hiding on the path, on the left.

Tool #6: The machete is hiding on the path, on the left. 
It is closer to the bottom of the screen than the jaguar 
is.

Tool #7: The snake is hidden in the leaves, to the right 
of the path.

Tool #8: The shaman staff is in the upper/right corner. 
It is brown, with a green stone.

Puzzle #1: Use the machete on the leaves at the end of 
the path to open the way to the temple.

Screen 9
--------

All right, we're almost done! This is the temple with the 
rose of conquest! We just need to open the front door of 
the temple by decorating the pair of snakes.

Tool #1: A bat is on top of the snake to the left.

Tool #2: Gloves are inside the green pool in the 
middle/left. They are along the bottom edge to the pool, 
which is near the middle of the screen.

under the circular red thing.

Tool #5: Snake skin is in the green pool, along the tree 
root.

Tool #6: A green snake eye is near the oar, hiding in the 
shadows of the entrance to the temple.

Puzzle #1: Use the two snake skins on the sides of the 
two big snakes near the temple entrance.

Puzzle #2: See the gray flower sticking out of the pool 
of water in the lower/middle? Pick it with the gloves to 
find a snake eye.

snakes near the temple entrance.

Tool #7: The snake tongue, which looks like a red 
boomerang, is on top of the corner of the temple.

Puzzle #4: Put the snake tongue in the mouth of the snake 
on the right. The snakes are now decorated, so we can go 
inside the temple.

Screen 10
---------

Do you see the list of items to find? It's empty, except 
for the Rose of Conquest. No hidden items! Yay!

Puzzle #1: Put the shaman's staff in the hole in the 
ground.

Puzzle #2: Dump Samantha's entire inventory on the altar. 
We see a short cutscene that sets up...

Puzzle #3: It's Jewel Quest, a game that often comes 
bundled with this game on a CD. To solve this puzzle, 
make matches all across the board. The trick is that you 
have to make matches of three. When you make a match, the 
background of that tile turns gold. Make every tile's 
background turn gold in order to win!

Samantha gets the Rose of Conquest, which is blue. 
Hooray!

004d-England and the Rose of Justice
---------------------------------------------------------

The evil Markus Payne is upset that Samantha has taken 
another rose. He discusses this with Ravena Stryker. They 
decide to not interfere when Samantha gets the Rose of 
Justice from London because Samantha has already beaten 
them there.

Screen 1
--------

Samantha is in Buckingham Palace! You'd think they would 
clean this place up a bit. It's filthy! I guess it's up 
to Samantha to get rid of the mess.

Tool #1: The ladder is leaning against the left wall.

Tool #2: The pencil is on the floor, partially hidden by 
a red thing. It is left of the red stairs in the 
bottom/middle of the room.

Puzzle #1: Use the ladder on the two blue seats on the 
right. The ladder pushes them down, revealing a crown and 
a throne.

Puzzle #2: Use the pencil on the painting of the woman in 
red. Erase near her hands to see that she is holding a 
rose. Looks like we're in the right place! Exit through 
the curtains.

Screen 2
--------

The plaque on the wall looks strange. If you zoom in on 
it, Adam says it's probably some kind of code. Good work, 
Adam. Good work.

Tool #1: The statue of King Arthur holds a wind-up key in 
his hands (as well as a sword).

Tool #2: A paperweight is underneath the desk.

Tool #3: A nail file is on the coat rack.

Puzzle #1: The wind-up key is used on the box on the 
table, which is under the strange plaque. This reveals a 
dancer.

to get a bottle.

Puzzle #3: Use the nail file on the box in the 
lower/right, which is touching Samantha's face.

Tool #4: The gavel is underneath the plaque, on the sofa.

Puzzle #4: Zoom in on the plaque, and use the gavel on 
it. Break the three pieces of glass to see that the code 
reads "Follow King Arthur". And so, Samantha leaves the 
room, through a hidden passageway behind the statue of 
King Arthur.

Screen 3
--------

Tool #1: The lance is part of a painting along the left 
wall, under the stain glass windows. A man is holding it.

Tool #2: The hand cart is to the right of the leftmost 
statue.

Puzzle #1: Use the lance on the red curtains to find a 
dove.

Puzzle #2: Use the hand cart on the statue that is second 
from the left to move it aside and find a glass cutter.

Puzzle #3: Use the glass cutter on the stain glass window 
above the red curtain, in the center of the room. Put all 
the pieces of glass into the window so that all four 
sides of the window match. That is, the pattern repeats 
itself. (Also, most of the missing pieces are uniquely 
shaped, so you can only fit them in one place on the 
screen anyway).

Screen 4
--------

The stained glass window leads to a rainbow, which leads 
to here: some dungeons.

Tool #1: The trowel is next to the green plant, at the 
base of a column in the middle/left.

Puzzle #1: Use the trowel on the broken brick (on the 
left side of the base of the archway). This gets you 
goggles.

Puzzle #2: Use the goggles anywhere to put them on. Then, 
pick up the skeleton key, which is on the floor, near the 
door.

Puzzle #3: Use the key on the door.

Screen 5
--------

Puzzle #1: We're in a maze! How do you get through? 
Follow the letters on the signs. The letters spell out 
"King Arthur". For example, at the beginning, you go 
forward to the K, then turn left. Go forward to the I, 
then turn right. Go forward to the N, then go forward. 
It's pretty simple. Just take the paths that spell out 
the words "King Arthur".

Make sure to pick up all the statues and wall decorations 
as you go through the maze! The proper pathway leads you 
to all the correct statues.

Puzzle #2: At the end of the maze is a door, with a 
skeleton key in the corner. Grab the key and use it on 
the door to open it.

Screen 6
---------

This room has a number of statues, all gathered in a 
circle. But wait! Six of the statues appear to be 
missing!

Puzzle #1: Put the statues from the maze into their 
proper places in the circle. You can't put a statue in a 
wrong spot, and each time you place a statue, you get a 
weight.

Puzzle #2: Use the skeleton key on the exit door.

Screen 7
--------

The final room! Let's get that Rose of Justice!

Tool #1: King Arthur has a dagger on his belt.

Tool #2: King Arthur also has a scale on his belt.

Tool #3: A staff is on the column in the middle, directly 
under a cobweb.

Tool #4: A scale is upside-down, on the flowers in the 
upper/left.

Tool #5: King Arthur is holding a sword.

Puzzle #1: Use the staff on the mouse statue to break it 
open and get a horse.

Puzzle #2: Use the dagger on a floor tile (in the 
bottom/left) to get a golden crown.

Tool #6: A blindfold is on the King Arthur statue. He's 
using it as a wristband.

Puzzle #3: Letters appear on the board. Of course, you 
want to follow King Arthur. Moving in a clockwise 
fashion, click on the letters that spell "King Arthur". 
If you pick the right letter, it turns green.

Puzzle #4: A statue of a woman appears. Give her a sword 
for her right hand, a blindfold for her eyes and two 
scales for her left hand. That way, she looks like 
justice.

Puzzle #5: The scales of justice must be balanced with 
the weights. Put the 1, 7 and 3 weights on one side, and 
the 2, 4 and 5 weights on the other.

Hooray for justice and equal weight distribution! We get 
the purple rose of justice as a reward!

004e-France and the Rose of Art
---------------------------------------------------------

Adam thinks that the Rose of Art is in France. And where 
do you go to find great artwork in France? The Louvre! 
Samantha goes to the Louvre after hours in search of the 
Rose of Art.

Samantha will find a lot of things in France, but she 
won't keep any of them except the Rose of Art.

Tool #1: The box cutter is in the top-left corner.

Tool #2: The pliers are near the top of the column on the 
left (the one supporting the archway).

Puzzle #1: Use the box cutter on the black garbage bag, 
near the trash can by the Employees Only door. This gives 
you a key.

The rope will fall, and we find a box.

Puzzle #3: Use the key on the box to find a screwdriver.

Puzzle #4: Use the screwdriver on the security alarm, 
then pull the lever. This disables the security in the 
Louvre, letting us go to the Employees Only area.

Screen 2
--------

Tool #1: The vacuum cleaner is yellow and in the 
lower/left.

Tool #2: Scissors are on the floor, on a tile. They're 
below the middle/center of the room.

Puzzle #1: Use the vacuum cleaner on the dirt in the 
middle of the room to find tape.

Puzzle #2: Use the scissors on the gray coat on the left, 
hanging off of a vase. This gets you an ID badge.

Puzzle #3: Use the ID badge on the gray box on the table 
in the middle of the room. This gets you a key.

Puzzle #4: Use the key on the locked box which is red and 
in the center of the room, along the bottom edge of the 
screen. This gets you a key card.

Screen 3
--------

Tool #1: A guillotine is leaning against the exit 
doorway.

Tool #2: Gloves are on top of the open box on the right.

Tool #3: A feather duster is posing as a tree in the 
painting on the left.

Puzzle #1: Use the guillotine on the cake to get a hidden 
necklace. This must be the cake that Marie Antoinette was 
talking about before she was beheaded.

Puzzle #2: Use the gloves on the cactus. Samantha picks 
up the cactus to find a crowbar. Crowbars are always 
useful.

Puzzle #3: Use the crowbar on the crate in the 
lower/right to find a gray box.

Puzzle #4: Use the key card on the gray box to get a 
black light.

Screen 4
--------

We're out of the Employees Only area, and now we're in 
the Egyptian room. We still haven't found anything that 
relates to the Rose of Art, though.

Tool #1: The Tut Mask is in the middle of the room.

Tool #2: The staff is along a column, standing up and 
down. It is to the left of the Tut Mask.

Tool #3: A sail is on the base of the table in the upper-
left.

Tool #4: A green jar is on a platform on the right. This 
platform is intended for the yellow jar.

Puzzle #1: Use the Tut Mask on the Sphinx-like statue to 
get a yellow jar.

Puzzle #2: Use the staff on the hole in the ground to get 
a blue jar.

Puzzle #3: Use the sail on the ship in the lower/left to 
get a red jar.

Puzzle #4: On the right, there are four platforms. One is 
red, one is yellow, one is blue, and one is green. Put 
the green jar on the green platform, the yellow jar on 
the yellow platform, the red jar on the red platform, and 
the blue jar on the blue platform.

Puzzle #5: A hieroglyph puzzle appears. Spin the 
hieroglyph wheels so that the glyphs on the top of the 
screen match the ones on the bottom.

Puzzle #6: A second hieroglyph puzzle appears, but you 
can't see the glyphs. Use the feather duster to clean up 
the wall, so you can see them properly. Then, spin the 
wheels so the glyphs match, and you get the date scroll.

Screen 5
--------

The date scroll will help us solve the painting puzzle. 
As you can see, there are a number of paintings in this 
room.

Puzzle #1: Use the date scroll on the paintings. A 
picture of how the paintings should be arranged appears. 
Put the paintings where they belong, according to the 
layout.

Puzzle #2: Use the black light on the paintings to see a 
picture of a centaur.

Screen 1
--------

Samantha returns to the first room, which has a centaur 
statue.

Puzzle #1: Spin the statue's shield to reveal a hidden 
passageway.

Screen 6
--------

Since this passageway is unknown, Samantha feels free to 
take whatever she wants here. Samantha, you're just 
filling your museum up with artifacts stolen from other 
museums!

wall of a wine barrel rack.

All right, we're here at the Rose of Art!

Tool #1: A bludgeon is hanging near the top of the 
leftmost column.

Puzzle #1: You can zoom in on the panels in the back 
wall. This is a matching puzzle. Click on a rose, then 
click on the rose which matches it perfectly. Do this 
with both panels to get a throne leg and glasses.

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

The next rose is in Tibet! Inside some ancient mountain 
caves, to be specific. Let's go!

Screen 1
--------

Tool #1: The picture is sticking out of the right side of 
the brochure rack.

Samantha then has to solve a "find the fourteen

exit door shows that the order is drum, chimes, then 
bell. Use the padded stick on the drum picture on the 
altar, then the chimes picture, then the bell picture.

Screen 5
--------

It looks like we have an elemental cube and a multi-room 
puzzle! There are four rooms: a fire room, a water room, 
an ice room, and a wind room. You're going to have to go 
back and forth between the various rooms until you get a 
medallion from each one.

First, though, open the doors to the four rooms.

Puzzle #1: Put the tiles above the doorways. The dragon 
tile goes above the door with a dragon painted on it.

Now all four rooms are open. From left to right, you have 
the room of fire, water, wind and earth.

Earth Room
----------

Tools #1-8: The colored tiles are lying around the room, 
in various places. 

Puzzle #1: Zoom in on the mandala, and put the tiles 
where they belong. You have to rotate some tiles in place 
(the tiles you found in the room don't need to be

Water Room
----------

Tool #1: A shell is on the ground, to the left of the 
altar.

Puzzle #1: Use water from the shell on the altar. Use

the middle of the room. This reveals a painting puzzle.

Tool #1: Grab the paint brush along the right wall.

should be painted. This gets you the green Rose of 
Wisdom.

004g-Japan and the Rose of Skill
---------------------------------------------------------

One more rose to go! This one is in Japan, near an area 
where people go pearl diving. This time, Samantha brings 
her friend Adam along to find the rose. You have to 
switch back and forth between the two of them to solve 
the puzzles here at the start.

Screen 1
--------

You need only one item from Samantha's screen here, so 
it's easier just to get it now at the start.

There are no tools to find in this scene! Well...you 
still have to find things, but none of them are tools.

Puzzle #1: Use the knife on the clam to get a pearl.

Puzzle #2: Use the hand rake on the sand on the right to

Screen 6
--------

Once Adam and Samantha finish with their screens, you get 
taken to Screen 6. This is the last screen! Only some 
door puzzles lie between us and the rose of skill!

Tool #1: A flashlight is resting on a rock left of the 
door, level with the top of the door.

Tool #2: A quiver is against the right edge of the 
screen, and it's almost too dark to see.

Tool #3: A flute rests on the green/gray rock on the 
right of the steps. It is level with the waterfall on the 
left.

Puzzle #1: See the waterfall on the right, at the bottom 
edge of the screen? Use the flashlight there to get a 
horse.

Puzzle #2: Use the flute on the rat, near the waterfall 
on the right to get a door pull.

Puzzle #3: Zoom in on the door. Click on a door piece to 
rotate it, and rotate all six pieces so they form a rose. 
When you get a piece correct, it changes color. 

Puzzle #4: Use the door pull as a key handle to open the 
door.

Puzzle #5: More doors? Match the symbols on the two 
moveable walls with the symbols on a door. The symbols 
turn yellow when a row/column matches. Match both walls 
with a door symbol to break that part of the door. Do 
this four times in a row to get the gong hammer.

Puzzle #6: Use the gong hammer on the gong to finally get 
rid of the door.

Puzzle #7: Dress up the samurai statue. Put the katana in 
his right hand, the helmet on his head, the dragon buckle 
on his belt, the quiver on his right shoulder, the bow on 
his left shoulder, the spear on his left hand, and the 
star on his chest.

This gives us the Rose of Skill, which is...wait, what? 
That's not the Rose of Skill! It's a PDA with a message 
for Samantha.

004h-The Hidden Roses of Athena
---------------------------------------------------------

Oh no! Markus Payne has kidnapped Dr. Butler! Dr. Butler 
is being held hostage at Payne's museum, and the ransom 
price is five roses of Athena. Payne, you fiend!

Puzzle #1: Put the roses in place! Drag the roses across 
the screen, but do not drag any rose over a laser beam. 
Put the Rose of Art in France, the Rose of Industry 
inside Rome, the Rose of Justice in England, the Rose of 
Conquest in Guatemala, and the Rose of Wisdom in Tibet.

Puzzle #2: Use the scarf in Japan. Most of the lasers 
disappear.

Puzzle #3: Use the shield on the lasers on the left. This 
gives us access the dumbwaiter, which has Dr. Butler 
inside. Hooray, Dr. Butler is safe! Payne then invites 
Samantha to see the shield completed.

Puzzle #4: Pick up the shield and use it on the lasers in 
front of the exit doorway. Go through the exit to meet up 
with Payne. Payne puts the final Rose of Athena on the 
Shield of Athena in a brief cutscene. Athena herself 
appears and favors Samantha over Payne. 

It's time to leave this place, but not before robbing 
Payne blind. Find all the items on the list, ending 
with...

Tool #1: The Scepter of Zeus, which was stolen from us at 
Athens, has just been found. It's in the display case on 
the left.

Our heroes then escape from the museum, which is on an 
island with a volcano, and they watch the clouds.
