You decide to read the pamphlet. You tear open the plastic bag, and by the light of your shrinking fire, you read what it says...

...Feces.

It is written in a language that you do not know how to read. Well that didn't help much.

Use the decoder goggles!

Sorry, is this like a spoof on one of those 'trapped inside a room' games, where it somehow becomes incredibly complicated to open a door or something?

Tear it into pieces and eat it because you are xenophobic

(Before I run to go take a shower while the game is on pause... No, no it isn't. Feel free to McGuever your way out of any situation; it makes things more interesting. But it is most definitely not required. To be honestly, I was extremely impressed with Palenque fire starting idea. It was not even close to what I was thinking of.

Every "puzzle" should be fairly easy to solve by looking around, and I'm trying to think of multiple ways out of every situation, and to be very flexible in allowing people to come up with their own solutions if they make sense within the context of the story; even if the reader doesn't understand WHY it makes sense yet.

Protip: Your suggestion actually made sense, and I am greatly concerned and now trying to figure out how I will respond to it, as I did not intend for someone to think of something like that yet.)

I enjoy coming up with weird solutions like that. It's fun.

Ah, okay. That makes things a lot more fun...

I'm freeeeeeeeeeee!!!! Jks.

Maybe try and make another makeshift torch from a spare dagger, wrapped in cardboard held on with cloth (Only wrap and burn the blade part though), and try and find some sort of exit or something of interest.

You find yourself wishing you had a pair of decoder goggles so that you could translate the language. You sigh and close your eyes.

You open your eyes, and look at the pamphlet again. Floating slightly above the text are faint blue letters in a language you can actually read. You freak out and throw the pamphlet away from you.

You don't know what happened, but the shock has worn off and you go to pick up the pamphlet again. You begin to read...

Did you think you could get away with it?
いいえ!
No! Bad!

Goddamn narrators always breaking the forth wall. You hate narrators. Good for nothing son of a bitches.

Sudden, high above your head, in the ceiling that you cannot see because it is so far away, a tiny pebble manages to lodge itself loose. It comes plummeting down and strikes you on the head.

OUCH! Goddamn narrators, say something bad about them and they get all uppity and smite you

"Don't make me use a bigger rock," you hear a voice in your head say. You grumble to yourself about narrators, voices in your head, and how unfair the world is. But you try and keep your thoughts to yourself from now on.

Angry and upset at the audacity of people in other dimensions controlling your thoughts and actions, and completely and totally FUCKING WITH YOUR MIND, you rip the pamphlet into shreds and eat it. That'll show them!

Your smugness level has increased by 3 points

You throw bits of jumpsuit and cardboard box into the fire in order to help build it up before it extinguishes itself.

With a little tender love and care, the fire begins to get quite large and warm.

Your comfort level increases by 17 points

You set about being busy trying to figure out how to make a torch out of your blade, when you notice that your fire has started spreading. Part of the seemingly endless box pyramid has caught on fire. It begins to grow rapidly, like a fire being fed by a giant pile of cardboard boxes and human corpses... oh wait...

You need to find an exit, and find one NOW!

FUCK FINDING A SKELETON, IF YOU DON'T GET OUT OF HERE NOW, YOU ARE GOING TO BE A SKELETON! A VERY CHARRED SKELETON!

There is a wall of boxes, and a wall made of stone on either side of you, going for an indeterminable distance in both directions. The light of the growing fire is illuminating large portions of the cave now.

You start running in one direction, as the fire sweeps across the boxes. It spreads ridiculously rapidly, and some of the boxes start exploding. You don't know what the hell the fuck that was, but it only makes you run faster.

You can feel the intense heat of the bonfire behind you as you come to a door in the wall. Sweat dripping from your palms, you wrench open the door and duck inside.

From the light of the fire before you closed the door, you could see that you are now in a long hallway... once again made of what appears to be solid rock. It seems to have been carved out into a deliberate hallway, as it is far too neat to be natural (not to mention the door behind you)

Luckily, it isn't entirely dark in here!

... Unfortunately, by luck, you mean that there are light fixtures on the ceiling, and all but one florescent bulb has been extinguished with time. The remaining bulb flickers on and off, from dim light, to the same pitch black emptiness you found yourself in before.

There are three people slumped against the walls. Dead people. You think they may have starved to death. How do you know?

Well uh, let's just say you managed to find a skeleton after all. Three of them.
