The title of Pine Studio's escape game Cleopatra's Escape, also free for iOS and Android, would seem to imply that you play as Cleopatra, but when you're only represented as an ambiguous white fist in your inventory, who knows? Regardless of who you may be, you're trapped in this tomb, and if the bones by the door are any indication, you probably want to try to find a way out sooner or later. The cursor will change when it passes over something you can click on to interact with, and text at the top of the screen will give you an idea of what that action is. Remember that you can combine some items you're carrying by clicking on them in succession, and the fist actually represents using force on things, so try it out if you're stuck. Which, chances are, you may wind up being, since Cleopatra's Escape doesn't always give you the hints or nudges it could to subtly steer the player in the right direction. Still, it's easy on the eyes and at times fairly clever, but if you don't want your bones to wind up inside it as well, you'll need to be more clever still!

Ah, okay. That makes at least a little more sense. (Here I go looking for logic in my escape games again...)
Most of the puzzles made no sense to me.
And even more puzzlingly,
Reka, it took me a couple of tries because I'm cardinally deficient. Reading the scroll from left to right:
Taken in that manner it makes sense.

WALKTHROUGH.
I really like this game, a little short in my opinion and the puzzles are nice
