Next adventure: The Race is On.

Objectives (continued):

• Get to the Inner Courtyard - It seems calm enough here. Better take the time and see if there is anything useful here before moving on.
• Reach the top of the Castello - There's a way to the top of the Castello from here, but the courtyard is crawling with Blackshirt Fascists. It would be wise to steer clear of them, but then again - no harm in knocking out some Fascists.
• Get to Passetto di Borgo - The Passetto di Borgo is west of the Castello, it runs from Bastione San Marco straight into the Vatican.
• Get to Antonio - This is it. Antonio should be waiting on the other end of the Passetto di Borgo.
• Eavesdrop on Conversation - Some people are having a clandestine conversation in the passage above.
• Enter the Vatican - Antonio will show the way into the Vatican through the Passetto di Borgo.
• Talk to Antonio - Who was the giant burglar, and where did the cat mummy end up? Perhaps Antonio can help bring clarity to the mystery?
• Put on Disguise - Now when there are Blackshirts all over the Vatican, a disguise will be crucial to avoid attracting unwanted attention. Antonio has picked out a clerical suit that should fit.
• Search for the Symbol - Antonio said he has seen the symbol from the giant thief's pendant somewhere in the Vatican Library's Conservation Workshop.
• Explore the Secret Passage - The giant's pendant opened a secret passage leading down into the darkness beneath the Conservation Workshop, just waiting to be explored.
• Talk to Antonio - The mad priest may have been on to something after all. There must be a way to collect evidence concerning these inscriptions.

• Earn Money to Buy Camera (379 Lire) - Antonio wants to see photographic evidence of Father Crescenzo's inscriptions. Ernesto in the Vatican Post Office has a camera, but he won't part from it cheaply. Maybe there's some rewarding fieldwork to do.

• Enter the Tower of Nicholas V - Crescenzo's inscriptions pointed to the Tower of Nicholas V, where a "gate to the underworld" is supposed to lead to the "tomb of the warrior giant".
• Find the Underworld Gate - Hidden somewhere in the Tower of Nicholas V is a door leading to the underworld. Supposedly it is guarded by a demon, whatever that means.
• Explore the Underworld - The mural depicting St. Michael fighting the demon turned out to be the key to unlock the secret door to the Underworld.

• Find the Warrior Giant's Tomb - The mural of Jesus revealed another passage. Hopefully it leads to the so-called \"tomb of the warrior giant.
• Search the Tomb - The centerpiece of the tomb is a large sarcophagus fit for a giant. Crescenzo's inscriptions pointed here. Whatever is buried inside has been kept secret for many centuries.
• Find a Way Out - The Blackshirt's bulldozer caused the tomb to collapse. There's no way knowing what way is out now, but surely there must be some path through this maze of tunnels.
• Exit the Necropolis - The Blackshirts have found their way down here drawn by the ruckus of the bulldozer crash. That means there has to be a way back out.
• Exit the Catacombs - The air feels less stagnant here. That must mean this is the right direction.
• Climb up the Hole - The bulldozer opened up a big hole where it crashed down into the Giant Mausoleum. Looks like the onlys way out.
• Follow the Nun - A suspicious looking nun is lockpicking her way into places where she's most likely not allowed to be. What is she up to?

• Solve the Fountain Puzzle - The Fountain of Confession revealed several hidden scenes with statues. They must be part of the key to revealing the entrance to the secret monastery of the Nephilim order.
• Explore the Underground - A secret staircase leads down beneath the Fountain of Confession. Maybe a connection between the giant thief, the stolen cat mummy and the monastery of the Nephilim order can be found down there.
• Complete the Challenges - There was a tablet in the great hall carved with a Latin inscription. "Complete the challenges of gold and silver, and forge the sacred keys."
• Explore the Gold Dragon Path - A path was revealed by the feet of the golden dragon. Perhaps it leads to the challenge of gold.
• Solve the Gold Path Puzzle - This must be the challenge of gold. It's awfully hot here, with burning coal underneath the grating.

• Finish Forging the Gold Key - Hot gold ran from the forge into the mold in the courtyard. It needs to be cooled down before it can be picked up.

• Search for the Cat Mummy - The Vatican Treasury of Esoteric Artifacts holds an amazing collection of priceless items, each one more stunning than the next. The stolen cat mummy must be somewhere among these shelves.
• Defeat Locus - Locus, the giant who stole the cat mummy from Marshall College, seems hell-bent on keeping the cat mummy here in the treasury. He won't listen to reason so there's only one thing to do.
• Check on Locus - Locus is down and out. Better check on his condition.
• Get to the Airship - Voss and his men are taking off with the thirteen of the stones from the Great Circle found in the Vatican. The airship anchored to the dome of the Basilica is waiting to take them to Gizeh, Egypt.
• Catch the Airship - The airship is about to take off for Gizeh, with Voss and the stones already on the ship.

Summary: With help from Father Antonio Morello, and Gina Lombardi, an Italian journalist, Indy found the cat mummy. It turned out to contain a stone of "The Great Circle" and had been taken by "The Nephilim Order", an ancient group of giants who had gathered artifacts containing stones for centuries. However, the Nazi archaeologist Emmerich Voss stole the stones and left for Gizeh, Egypt.

• Examine the Rubbing - Nawal has a rubbing of something on a noteboard in her pavilion. She says it may be of interest.

• Find the Tunnel Entrance - One of Nawal's agents has found an entrance to some tunnels that run underneath Gizeh. They can be used to get into the Nazi Compound undetected. The agent has marked the tunnel entrance with red paint.
• Go Through the Tunnels - Nawal said it should be possible to reach the Nazi Compound through these tunnels, but crawling through ancient tunnels beneath Gizeh poses all sorts of challenges.
• Take Down the Flag - Once the flag has been taken down, Nawal has prepared a distraction to keep the Nazis busy. That should make it possible to sneak through the compound without attracting too much attention.
• Find Voss' Office - Voss' office should be located somewhere up in the central barracks. Hopefully there will be information about the Idol of Ra there, or clues about Laura, Gina's missing sister.
• Search Voss' Office x 5 - Voss' office should contain information about the ongoing Nazi excavations in Gizeh, and perhaps also clues about Laura, Gina's missing sister.

• Inspect the Dream Stele - According to the mural in the Temple of the Guardians, The Dream Stele by the feet of the Sphinx shows the way to "open the way into the safehold", likely the location of the Idol of Ra. The dead giant's tattoo is the key to deciphering it.
• Find Clues x 4 / Solve the Dream Stele - To find the Idol of Ra, the Dream Stele must be decrypted. It should be possible to solve it with the symbol from the dead giant's tattoo.
• Investigate the Location - The Dream Stele is a map. The giant's symbol points to a spot just east of the Khafre pyramid. Something is hidden there.
• Explore the Tunnels - The giant's symbol marked the spot for a secret entrance next to the Mortuary Temple digsite, leading down into some unknown tunnels.
• Search for Clues x 6 - There are tablets with Adamic symbols on the walls in the resonance chamber. They must be the keys to unlock a part of this mystery.
• Solve the Resonance Chamber / Use the Camera for Hints - There's more to these Adamic words. The chamber responded when I spoke some of them.
• Explore the Caves - The resonance chamber reacted to the Adamic phrase, and a staircase opened up beneath the chamber. The path back up has closed so the only way forward is through these dark caves.
• Solve the Light Chamber / Use the Camera for Hints - Lights, brass mirrors, and what looks like a huge tuning-fork hanging from the ceiling. Clearly an elaborate challenge of some kind.
• Explore the Tunnels - The caves and tunnels continue beyond the Three Eyed Gate. Where do they lead?
• Find a Way Across - A majestic bridge runs across the yawning abyss. However, the bridge has crumbled and can't be used to cross over to the other side.

She was working to decipher Adamic, according to legend the first language given to men by God. They found a dead giant with a mysterious tattoo and realized that the tattoo must be the key to solving the Dream Stele by the Sphinx. Solving it should reveal the location of the Idol of Ra.
