Cryptology

Cryptology is unlocked for research in the Research Room at the outset of Sweaty Palms; it is a single-illness Treatment room, treating only the Visual Illness Premature Mummification. It is run by a Nurse, whose efficiency can be increased by Treatment skills.

Function
Once diagnosed with Premature Mummification, patients make their way to this clinic. The nurse uses the green button to retract the three pieces of the sarcophagus lid, and the yellow lever to have the main piece rotate upright on its base. The patient will take their place inside the sarcophagus, which will return to its original position, followed by the lid reassembling. The green button and yellow lever are used again, this time to open the blue panel at the top of the machine, to reveal a spindle attached to the articulated arm, which is moved into position over the slot in the sarcophagus' headpiece. The patient's bandages will be gathered and rolled onto the spindle through this slot, until none remain. One more use of the green button and yellow lever will open and raise the sarcophagus once again, revealing the restoration of the patient's natural appearance, their treatment concluded.

Appearance
The door is dark blue, with two vertically-elongated ovals underneath a golden winged sun symbol. The floor inside consists of large brown square tiles with rough surfaces. The walls consist of full-height panels of reddish brown stone, alternating between one panel depicting a sarcophagus design with a winged sun inside, and another bearing the same elongated ovals as the door.

Unlock
Cryptology is made available to develop in the Research Room at the outset of Sweaty Palms. The Cryptology research project is used to unlock it, which will require 1,000 to complete.

Upgrades
