Story
The archaeological team of Kingston University is on the verge of a great discovery: they discovered a tomb almost untouched by time, which Egyptian sands carefully concealed for many centuries. But after archaeologists were left without their leader, the excavations turn into continuous chaos, accompanied by rumors of a curse. Everything becomes much worse after a series of terrible incidents, terrible accidents and exposure of the selfish intentions of some members of the team. Only Nancy is able to get to the bottom of the truth, located in the depths of the tomb.
Characters
- Nancy Drew is the main character, a girl detective.
- Abdullah Bakum is an expert at Kingston University in Egypt. In the world of Egyptology, he is known for both his discoveries and his strong character. Despite years of diligence, he never managed to achieve what he wanted in his work, but he was determined to achieve his goals. Could his passion for discoveries and his serious ego be embodied in a series of mysterious incidents?
- Lily Crew is a student at Kingston University, Ph.D. in Egyptology. Archeology is her passion, and she is overly pleased to be directly involved in the excavation for the first time. She hopes to find a mummy , but has no idea what she needs to do. She admires Abdullah, but is in no hurry to agree with him on everything. Her desire to become a leader, despite a complete lack of experience, looks suspicious.
- Jamilya El-Dine - a local resident, excited about the news about the location of the temple near her city. She is fond of ancient Egypt and firmly believes that it was the aliens who built the pyramids. More than once they noticed how Jamilya “sniffed out” something near the excavation site. So what does she really believe in and what is the true reason for her curiosity?
- Dylan Carter - Charismatic, Educated, and Friendly - Dylan Carter works as a guide in Britain. He also takes part in excavations. Carter claims that tourists in droves will start coming to the tomb as soon as they hear about the curse, thereby making it clear that the more troubles happen to the team, the more convincing the story and its fees. Is Carter capable of provoking several incidents so as not to hope for a chance?
- John Boyle is the head of the excavation and renowned Egyptologist at Kingston University, New York. John is already over 40 years old, dozens of which he spent on excavations. After John was injured during a sandstorm, he asks you to find the true culprit of incidents and theft at the excavation site.
- Professor Beatrice Hotchkiss (telephone character) - historian and writer - is your primary source in any matters related to Egypt . Her passion and knowledge of history will help you learn more about the tomb and who it was intended for.
- Bess Marvin (phone character) - Friend of Nancy Drew, can help in the game, and you can also share news with her (as with John Boyle).
