map rocks-used to open vault 
treasures-used to score points

MAGIC HERBS-If Sam is bitten by a snake or spider he has one minute to find the magic herbs and pick them up, thereby curing himself. The amount of time Sam has left before he dies is shown in red at the bottoom left of the screen. He has to place himself over a herb and kneel to get it. 
TEMPLE AIR-The air in the temple is stale. When Sam enters he only has one and a half minutes of air. He must exit before his time is gone or he will die. The time remaining is shown on the bottom of the screen. 
 
MAP VAULT-In order to open the map vault Sam must grasp a map rock and place it in the proper map rock hole. This is done by positioning Sam under the desired hole and pressing the left fire button. If the rock is the proper one, the hole will disappear, if it is incorrect, the map rock will be relocated elsewhere in the temple and you have to find it again. 
 
OPENING VAULT-There are two ways to open a vault door. The first is using the chisel. If Sam strikes the secret part of the wall with the chisel the vault will open. In order to hit the secret part of the wall you must position Sam as close to the wall as possible. The second method uses the acid. If Sam stands as near to the wall as possible, and throws the acid onto the wall, the vault door will open. 
 
An extra man is awarded for collecting 20 treasures.

Save one flask of acid as a defense against a mummy. 
Leave one cache of acid flasks in an opened vault room as an emergency supply you can come back to if needed. 
Sam can carry only five flasks of acid at a time. If you pick up more you will lose the excess. 
When you are exploring the long columns of rooms keep an eye on your air timer. Only explore half the rooms at a time. 
Remember where the magic herbs are. 
Position your torch handle over the hole you wish to try when attempting to insert map rocks.
