Synopsis
On a visit to the remote village of El Rajid, you are fascinated by the legends of the village. The one that intrigued you the most was the story of a young man named Sinuhe who helped in the construction of a fabulous pyramid for a cruel pharaoh. Sinuhe hated the pharaoh and decided to kill him, but he was caught by the palace guards and thrown to the crocodiles. This act enraged Anubis, the ancient Egyptian god of mummification and the afterlife.
Anubis raised the spirit of Sinuhe and sent him to haunt the pharaoh and his descendants for generations to come. It is said that the spirit still haunts all those who live in the valley around El Rajid, descendants of the pharaoh or not.
Every year, on the Festival of the Sun, the villagers leave their homes to search the remains of the ancient pharaoh's palace, hoping to find the medallion that Sinuhe was wearing when he was killed. According to the legend, if the medallion is melted down and transformed into the figure of Anubis, then the wrath of Anubis will be appeased and Sinuhe will have a peaceful afterlife.
In this game, it is the morning of the Festival of the Sun and the villagers have left to search for the medallion of Sinuhe, leaving you alone to do your own exploring. Can you survive the desert heat and find the lost medallion to appease The Wrath of Anubis?
