Riddle of the Sphinx the awakening

Hi everyone,

I am really stuck at the Funery Yacht Chamber. I have set the alligator eyes, found all the bolts and placed the correct one in the wheel slot,
I have opened Sobeck's door and checked those eye colors so many times. The next step is clicking on the wheel and it just wont pull the
yacht forward so I can go down into the opening under the back of the yacht. Any help would be appreciated. It's been a long time since I have
posted here but you have always been so helpful in the past. Any help would be appreciated, thanks so much.

Hi, Sue T! And welcome back! Have you checked a walkthrough to make sure you haven't missed anything? Most of them out there are video walkthroughs on Youtube, but one might help you figure out what's missing. Hopefully someone who has already played the game will check in here.

Hi Draclvr, Thanks for your quick reply, really appreciate it. I have checked my walkthrough and watched the video walkthrough as well. I am pretty sure I have covered all the bases but I am still unable to move that
yacht. I guess you are right, I need someone who has played and completed the game to get back to me. I have played the 2000 game with success but they have changed a few things in this new game.

I found a complete written walkthrough with pictures also for this new version here which you might find helpful. Scroll all the way to the bottom of the page and there is a listing for eight parts of the game so that you can find what you are looking for. Let us know how it goes.

Hi Marian, I have already consulted with this walkthrough and followed it trying to get that yacht to move with no success. I think the problem might be in setting the eye colors, it is a bit difficult to go from pillar to pillar.
There are supposed to be four but sometimes when you look to the side there seem to be more. Thanks for getting back to me, I wll keep trying.

Good luck, Sue! And maybe another player will be along to help.

Hi everyone! I have an update to report. Somehow I was not setting the crocodile eyes correctly and in my defense it is very hard to determine which pillar you are at when you set them. Anyway, I am so happy
to have succeeded and moved the funery yacht forward. Now I can move on in my game. I did not want to have to give up so I just kept trying and trying. I want to thank each of you for replying to me and giving
me advice. Thank you Marian for sending me the link to the very great walkthrough for this game. Thanks to you too Draclvr, for replying to my post. Gameboomers is still the best place to go
for adventure game tips an help!

I am SO glad to hear you persevered and finally got through this part. You did say, you had a feeling it was the eyes!

Hooray, Sue! Glad you are able to move on in the game now.

Well done Sue T. I am at that part of the game now and remember having difficulty with the eyes and pillars in the earlier game and it's no easier this time. Will need to check out the walkthrough and video suggested in this forum. Thanks gameboomers.

Good luck blackbird!

Hi Just found this game on Steam , Is this the same game I played years ago ?Have they added more or changed it completely ? I loved that game running around inside the pyramids .

It's the same game, but it has been enhanced as follows:

Thanks Marian, I will pop over to Steam and buy it. I take it is the same game.
I remember going down a rope from the top of a pyramid and then going across the way to descend in to a large hole and diving into water to find these weighted bells.
Its funny how you can remember these things LOL
Thanks
Maggsie

And now you have a laptop you can play this new version on!

Enjoy the game, maggsie!

Hi I hope you guys can help. I am still at the dig site and after my second trip in the helicopter and on way back to the first tent and I am getting this flashing yellow arrow and its like magnifys then flashes off.
Any ideas what it is ?
Maggsie

I am not sure what that signifies, maggsie. Hopefully another player will be able to help.

Hi I found out about the yellow arrow . It puts you where you want to go faster, saves you walking LOL.
