The Royal Museum

How do I take the royal jewels?

  1. The cage is impregnable, but you can't let small details like that stop you. Read the hints to unlocking the cage before going to 2.
  2. By now you know that the gold machine is a time machine which can be used to go to the Jewel Room before the cage is installed. (Push the machine to the Jewel Room in the present and go back to the year 776.)
  3. Unfortunately, you can't carry anything with you through time.
  4. You must find a very good hiding place. Lord Dimwit Flathead's men will no doubt launch an extensive search for the missing jewels. They must remain hidden for 200 years.
  5. You might check the machines for a good place. (Wait for the guards to leave.)
  6. Have you looked under the seat in the time machine?
  7. Excessive greed in an adventurer of your status is unbecoming.
  8. Only the ring can be successfully hidden.
  9. If you succeed in getting the ring, Flathead has the other jewels moved. If you botch the burglary, two things can happen: 1) They realize the time machine works and remove it; or 2) They find the jewels displaced and simply put them back (but a different plaque is installed).
