There are way too many game/movie named Cursed Mummy. It's like that's the only thing the whole world in the 80's know about Egypt.

No one ever talks about a blessed mummy or even an inert mummy. Always cursed. Every one of them. How the hell were the people who owned those bodies supposed to use them in paradise?

I know it's a hateful stereotype but it probably relates to a perceived taboo about jostling corpses associated with powerful Egyptian gods.

We still need an arm and he has so many, he could give us a hand.

I managed to dig up an ancient computer adaptation of The Cursed Mummy and I'm trying to get it to emulate properly and upload it tonight because I love you. Stay tuned also I think grabbing an arm is a good move, I'll have that card ready to look at with the next update.

Thanks for waiting! The last page, completed: To get to the expansion (and not piss off Hardmod) we gotta let him get a good night's sleep. Turning to 4: So our ESSENCE is restored, we can take whatever limbs and bits we want from the bucket, but first let's play the expansion, The Curse of the Cursed Mummy! Unfortunately the little booklet I used to have has been destroyed by time - it's made of the same garbage paper as everything else Herman Skull makes. However, I did find an ancient PC adaptation that could only be found on a misprint early run of those AOL CDs everyone used to get, and also hidden away on some of those 1001 shareware title compilations in a non-visible folder under the Accountancy Software sections. I've been working on getting it running on modern PCs and I think I may just have managed! PC only, sorry: Download it here: https://goo.gl/Vfwm05 Unzip and and run CURSE.EXE I'd be interested to know how your mini-adventure winds up. It gives us +1 FIST whenever we necromance, which is an early example of pay to win. Anyway, what limb(s) do we want, and with the Lich coming back what's the next move? We can ask him at least one question or demand one thing off him before things kick off again. Adventure sheet:

Get a new torso, this decrepit old barrel had already cost us with the ladies. Also that mini-adventure is p.awesome. By popular demand fucked around with this message at 17:34 on Jun 18, 2016 |

I kinda wanna take one of the monstrous arms, but I think that messes up our Union membership I THINK we get one of the better endings if we can somehow maintain good standing in the Union, but it's hard to do. Or we get one of the worst endings, I can't remember. Anyways, new torso and arm are in order. Take the Sword Arm and any nonshitty torso.

Any crustacean arms? Just because their skeletons are on the outside doesn't mean that lobsters don't know how to skele-party.

Can we get the Hand Cannon? It's a fuse-lit bombadier's weapon-appendage made by a one-handed dwarf demolitions "expert." e: The fake hand in 'Berserk' comes to mind: Dinosaurmageddon fucked around with this message at 20:36 on Jun 18, 2016 |

Let's grab the monkey paw for an arm. Its got two wishes left but they'll backfire horribly which helpful if we word it tricky.

Saint Isaias Boner posted:I'd be interested to know how your mini-adventure winds up. My ending was... well, every page, every ending. All of them. It took a little while. It's how I always did CYOA books when I was a kid, reading through and putting bookmarks in at every decision and going back to the last fork I was at once I get an ending and bouncing backwards then going forwards again untill I had read everything. Because why would you not read the whole book? Basically the same technique for Curse of the Cursed Mummy, just a lot more restarting and clicking through everything over and over. It was a really fun adventure, well done to, umm, Mr. Skull, and of course SIB for assembling it into a running program! As for parts, we definately need a new arm, since we are missing one right now, so pretty much just go for the coolest one in the pile. If there is an arm with a six fingered hand in there, that could be handy later. Also keep the barrel chest it is cool, gives us a mobile hiding spot, and lets us carry an extra item! We might want to ask Hardmod about the tower, but someone probably has a better idea then that.

Here's what's on the docket for now: Regular torso Sword Arm Non-IP-Infringing Fused-Rib Sea-Marine Torso Dwarven Hand Cannon Monkey Paw Six-Fingered Hand Tuxedo Torso Crab Hand Gorilla Hand Constant j/o action hand We'll narrow it down later but they're all great choices. It's ok to stop being decrepit too, the game sort of expects you not to be so slovenly by this point and we've already blown the "don't raise or harvest anything" ending.
