How to play

Prepare in Mort’ton

Bring a spade, food and a way home. Carry Prayer restoration and attacks suited to the different brothers.

Search the burial mounds

Stand on each mound and dig. Search the sarcophagus to face its brother. One crypt provides the tunnel route instead of a normal encounter.

Explore the tunnels

Enter the tunnel after clearing the other crypts. Open doors, solve the final door puzzle and defeat the remaining brother when he appears.

Solve the chest door puzzle

The locked door shows three pictures in a sequence. Choose the answer that continues that sequence: look at the changing shapes, lines, squares or the triangle around a circle. Answer positions are shuffled, so there is no fixed left, middle or right button. A wrong answer rearranges the catacomb doors; find a route and try again. A correct answer unlocks the route to the chest.

Claim the chest

Open the central chest, then leave and prepare for another run. Only defeated brothers add their equipment to the reward pool.
