Not to be deterred by my lack of vehicular transportation, I was not going to be kept from the Applesauce Master's birthday celebration. Like the true nerd that he is, the Applesauce Master wanted to explore Tomb. I (along with 15 of his closest friends) was more than happy to oblige.

If you've never heard of it, Tomb is this interactive game where a tour guide takes you into an ancient Egyptian tomb and you have to solve puzzles in order to pass on to the next level. It's actually kind of cool... if you're about 10 years old. If you're a group of 30+ adults, it's downright hilarious.

Realizing early on that she was dealing with a seriously goofy and difficult group, our poor "tour guide" tried to usher us through the puzzles as quickly as possible. It was mostly to no avail. At certain points, I was actively preventing the puzzles from being solved, either by hiding crucial pieces in my pants or distracting my fellow explorers with my seductive Egyptian dancing.

The poor 20-year old tour guide was really earning her money. At one point, the lights went out and the mummy cursed us all to live in the tomb forever. When the lights came back on, the curse had taken my shirt off! This was only first five minutes of the tour. The tour guide was psyched!

My favorite moment was probably when Mrs. Applesauce Master stepped on a hidden booby trapped panel. I grabbed her by the shoulders, shook her, and yelled in her face, "You're going to get us all killed, you stupid bitch!"

So anyway, Tomb is actually a lot of fun. I recommend going drunk. And bring the Applesauce Master with you to solve all the puzzles.
