This was a challenge set a while back for Izzy and I - all royalties
therefore to PW:

quote:


Pistol Whipped:

Unfinished Business, Temple of the Cat (remember that one!?)

As you exit from the underground room, you see a large step pyramid.
Protruding from the middle front side is an obilisk with cat statue.

There is another obilisk behind the fence to the right.
EC 1 (easy- done before): Can you get on top of that obilisk?
There is something special about it you can not know without going
there (unless you cheat and read it elsewhere).

The top of the pyramid is normally unreachable.
EC 2 (fairly easy -also done before): Can you get up there?
Tell me what it looks like from the backside.

Viewing from the front (again, as you enter this area), there is a
smaller retangular building to the left (behind "boulder hills")

EC 3 (I believe this is new, could be wrong): Get to the top.
There is a mural of a lion statue up there on the wall. What is the
inscription under it?

And no, I did *not* use a position editor. These can all be done
without the aid of any outside programs or save game editing.

Mmmm....I shall definately have to see if I haven't overwritten my saves for
that bit. But now I've got Unfinished Business I can always just nip
through the first level 🙂
