Overview
For three years the Nile has not risen, the granaries of Thebes are empty, and on the night after the Feast of Opet the Feather of Maat vanishes from the sanctuary - the relic of every oath. The seal on the opened shrine is the scribe Hapu's, and his daughter Merit sets out to prove it forged.
A story-driven match-3: 20 levels across four acts, from the procession of the sacred barque to a sandstorm on the road to Abydos and a trial before the boy king.
Every level is a scene: the characters speak before each round, and afterwards you learn how it turned out. Forty hand-drawn scenes fill the Chronicle, leafed like a book.
The board is made of things of the age: a papyrus scroll, a golden ankh, a lapis scarab, a lotus, a heart amulet, the Eye of Horus and the knot of Isis. In your way: reed thickets, funerary linen, stone columns, a temple cat, spilled incense, and rumour that recolours what stands beside it.
Progress saves to the cloud: start on a computer, continue on a phone.
