An epic narrative journey through ancient Egypt's afterlife; face your mortal sins spanning millennia and living history. Explore real tombs, depths of the underworld, step through the gates of hell, escape demons' and their trials, meet the gods, gain their powers, battle the enemies of chaos, face divine judgment and restore ma'at!
The gods bless you as you appease their favors, granting you divine powers over mortals and beasts alike, time and even the very elements of life itself.
Use your skills to overcome all challenges using smiting violence, silent-sneaky lethality, archery, flight, or animal attributes; the choice is yours.
By the power of Khonsu and Thoth, control time on demand, exploring the living present from beyond the grave. Unlock the future: gain access to hidden or blocked areas, circumvent foes in the afterlife to create devastating attacks, and solve the puzzling mysteries of ancient Egypt!
Based on ancient Egyptian art history including paintings, sculptures, tombs, temples and the world famous Book(s) of the Dead [and Caverns and Gates]. Original designs are carefully and academically researched for authenticity and plausibility. Created one frame at a time, with love and appreciation for cultural heritage without the use of exploitative AI.
