Solution by Garry Francis
----------------------------------------
(This is a minimal solution. You'll need to LOOK at lots of things for this solution to make
sense. There are two dark rooms. Each requires a light source and each contains a key item needed to
obtain the light source for the other room. You can use the matches to get a temporary glimpse of
the room, but there's only 12 matches, so use them only when you find something new. You can do
everything you need to do in the dark. In fact, you need to do this in one room anyway, so neither
of these rooms need to be lit to solve the game and lighting them is not included in the solution.)
