The luckiest of tomb raiders may even get there hands on the Pharaoh's Sceptre! Good luck to anyone who wishes to try this minigame.
Location and directions
Located just inside the gates of Sophanem, means this mini game requires the avid tomb raider to have completed Icthlarin's Little Helper, upto the point of entry into Sophanem.
Sophanem, isn't the easiest of desert towns to reach, as it lays to the far south of the desert, if you have completed Icthlarin's Little Helper, then you can use the flying carpets to reach here, if you haven't then catch a flying carpet to Pollnivneach, and then onwards to Nardah, then its a short walk past the agility pyramid.

Playing the Game When you reach the pyramid where this game is located (Refer to above map) there'll be four doors, three of which are fake and one which is the real door, once in you'll see the gaurdian mummy, speak to him to begin the minigame, you'll now be in a new chamber full of urns, a Sarcophagus and a golden chest, disarm the spear trap and start searching, beware that snakes may come out of the urns if you do you can either charm them, kill them or move into the next room, snakes will only appear if you fail to loot the urns, if you fail to loot the Sarcophagus or the golden chest you'll have mummies attack you, either move into the next room or kill them, beware of posion.
- Urns will give the player small items, not of much value (until higher level rooms)
- Golden chests & sarcophagus will give small items, and the chance of receiving the Pharaoh's Sceptre.
Upon moving into another room only one of the four doors will give you access, so if your moving on to stop being attacked, you better be quick!

To the Guardian Mummy, who'll recharge the sceptre for you.
