Applies to

0.4.0 (see the sources page)

Before you start

• A torch and enough battery to keep it on
• One hand free for the cart
• A crew that will not wander off in the dark

Steps

1. Work out which room you are in from its furniture before you start loading the cart.
   tables are named by room and by size, an arctic round table and a small arctic one among them
2. Use the big pieces as landmarks when the lights are out.
   chairs are named in kinds, an armchair, a plain chair, a big chair and a camp chair among them
3. Let the lamps tell you which rooms are worth searching.
   lamps are named for the rooms, a small arctic ceiling lamp among them
4. Check the screen in a furnished room instead of walking past it.
   a furnished room can hold a flat-screen television of its own
5. Do not write a fish off as decoration: on this site it is filed as a valuable.
   fish are named as a valuable of their own, with a mesh and a material beside them and a museum version

Common mistakes

• Reading a room by its loot while the furniture has already told you which theme it is.
• Walking into a dark room without noting the landmarks you will need on the way back.
• Leaving a fish behind because it looked like scenery.
• Packing the cart before you know which part of the level you are standing in.
