How does your game fit the theme?

Use the scales to weigh the hearts of the dead. The worthy may enter the underworld. The unworthy will be fed to Ma'at.

Instructions

Use the weights provided to weigh the hearts of the dead on the scales of Ma'at. 

- Use the handbook to check the maximum heart weights for each species.

- Put weights on the scale to match the correct maximum weight.

- If the heart is heavier than the weights, the heart is too heavy to enter the underworld. The display will show red. Feed the heart to the auto-Ma'at-ic shredder!

- If the heart is lighter than the weights, the heart may enter the underworld and the display will show green. Press the green button to allow entry.

- Your job is to keep your performance meter high until the end of your shift (the sand timer shows how long you have left). If your red performance meter reaches zero, you will be 'fired'.

- Subsequent shifts will have additional checks and restrictions for the dead.

- Beware the wrath of Osiris!
