STORY

Bolivia, La paz, 1998.

The Urugyayan archaeologist Rodolfo Skylarriente is looking for the invaluable roundel of the Persian king Cyrus the Great.  

Leandro, a bolivian friend and colleague of Rodolfo, had already discovered it, but was murdered by some mafia guys, former paramilitaries and supporters of Pinochet dictator.

Leandro had given you many notes, as he knew he was in danger, so you can start searching immediately.   

Your goal is to find the Persian roundel and hand it over to the Iranian national museum.

Good luck!

 

INSTRUCTIONS/KEYS

To play this game, you only have to use the numbers (0-8).

Please have in mind that:

When you take an object, the object you were already holding returns to its initial place.

It is important to hold a specific object when you make a specific choice.

Some choices may appear only after you have made some other correct choices.

After ship departure (part A), you cannot go back, but you will not need any of previous objects.

After train departure (part B), you can go back only to the laboratory or the chemical lab, but you will not need any other objects from previous places.

If you find the game difficult, you can load the RODOLFO BONUS dsk.  There, you will find the solution files in all languages.

For English, you can type run”SOLUTEN1.BAS” for part 1, or run”SOLUTEN2.BAS”for part 2.

For Spanish, you can type run”SOLUTES1.BAS” for part 1, or run”SOLUTES2.BAS”for part 2.

For Greek you can type run”SOLUTGR1.BAS” for part 1, or run”SOLUTGR2.BAS”for part 2.
