Section - Leaving

Check going up from the Crypt:

if the bandages are hanging from the ceiling in the crypt:

try climbing the bandages instead;

if the ladder is in the crypt:

try climbing the ladder instead;

otherwise:

say "[The hole] is way up in [the ceiling]. You can't reach it from where you're standing."

Instead of climbing the bandages when the bandages are hanging from the ceiling:

say "Taking a deep breath, you start pulling yourself up the thin strip of mummy wrappings. Luckily, it is much stronger than it looks, and soon you're halfway up. Then something breaks up above, there's a sudden rush, and you slide back down a metre or two. Your heart is racing, but it seems like [the list of objects stuck to the bandages] has found purchase again. A tense couple of minutes later, the sun greets you as you emerge from the entrance hole. [paragraph break]Well, you may have ruined the ladder, but [a score-related message]";

earn the "Getting Away With it" achievement;

update the achievement list;

end the game in victory.

Instead of climbing the ladder when the ladder is broken:

say "That will be tough, seeing as you've broken the ladder."

Instead of climbing the ladder:

say "The ladder creaks precariously as you begin your ascent. About halfway up one of the remaining steps break as you step on it, and you scramble frantically for purchase. Just as you make your way through the hole in the ceiling the ladder breaks apart and disappears from under you. But [a score-related message]";

end the game in victory.

To say a score-related message: say "[if the score is less than 2]you've at least made it back out in one piece[otherwise if the score is less than 3]you at least found that one treasure[otherwise if the score is less than 4]you've at least found a few treasures[otherwise if the score is less than 10]you've at least made it back up with your rucksack full of treasure[otherwise]you cleaned that crypt out pretty good[end if]. [paragraph break]And in the end, that's all that matters.[paragraph break]"

The player is in the crypt.
