Hidden Ruins is a classic puzzle adventure game in the Adventure Escape Mysteries series that was only added to the AE Mysteries Steam app in June 2024. If you're currently enjoying this classic Professor Burns adventure, read on for my full walkthrough and puzzle guide.
Adventure Escape Hidden Ruins: Chapter 1 Walkthrough Guide and iOS Gameplay (by Haiku Games)
Our adventure begins as Professor Burns, Tawa, Rachel and Peter attempt to find the hidden ruins of the ancient Kumari civilization. To play the game on Steam, you need to download Adventure Escape Mysteries and select Hidden Ruins after opening the app.
The game has eight chapters, which you can easily navigate using the table of contents above. You’re looking for the Elixir of Life, but that won’t be easy! Please note: The chapters in this guide correspond to the Steam version of Hidden Ruins. If you’re playing a different version, which has 7 chapters (instead of 8), please note that Chapters 3 and 4 are combined here as Chapter 3 in old versions, so any later chapter numbers for you will be one off (but all the information you need is here).
Grab the machete and shovel from the back of the jeep (a1) and use the shovel to dig around the stone slab (a2) to reveal two more symbols (you can click on the stone to get a better look).
