Animation & Game
An ambitious teenage thief has to break out of a deadly time loop that traps him in the pyramid he just robbed.
No bad deed goes unpunished! Young Khalid just stole pharaoh Sekhemset’s treasure to prove his worth as the Master Thief, but now he is locked in her grave and forced to relive the same five minutes over and over, always dying at the end.
In this 1st person escape-the-room adventure game, you, in the shoes of Khalid, solve the puzzles of the pyramid, explore the story of the pharaoh and manage information from previous lives.
Will you make it out of this ancient Egyptian prison with the treasure… and your life?
Do you want to experience a unique escape
adventure?
▲ You have only five minutes. Use them to your fullest!
▲ Every five minutes, you lose your inventory and other physical progress, but you keep
your memory. Collect information, not items!
▲ Lost an important item? Go back in time and regain it. How will you use it this time?
▲ Prepare for puzzles that utilize sound, perspective and out-of-the-box thinking.
▲ Enjoy the antics of Khalid, who thinks himself the Master Thief and may even joke about such a grave situation.
▲ Pharaoh Sekhemset has died long ago. Still, her story is told – through the puzzles you solve, and the wall paintings you see.
How does it relate to your situation?
