About this game

Egypt 1156 B.C.: Tomb of the Pharaoh is an adventure, point-and-click, and puzzle game set in ancient Egypt. You play as Ramose, a young investigator tasked with proving his father’s innocence after the tomb of Pharaoh Sethi I is desecrated and looted.

With only three days to prevent the execution sentence, you explore locations in a first-person perspective with smooth panoramic movement. Investigation involves branching conversations, puzzle solving, and manipulating objects both in the environment and in your inventory. Some actions are followed by third-person cutscenes.

The game also includes reference material on ancient Egypt, its people, and its culture, available through discoveries during play or from the main menu.
