Meet assassins, bouncers and travelling salesmen on the perilous streets of Cairo
Posted on 16 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in DS, News | 0 comments
ANKH: CURSE OF THE SCARAB KING (DS) DISTINGUISHED BY WITTY HUMOUR AND UNIQUE CHARACTERISATION
XIDER Games will soon release Ankh: Curse of the Scarab King on Nintendo DS. Players will meet vibrant and entertaining characters, including evil assassins, royal guards and strict bouncers on their quest to save Assil. Each character is important and could hold vital information or tools that will thwart the Mummy’s fatal curse.
Individual characters have been designed to add humour to the game by portraying modern ways of life in an ancient time. This is seen in Bakshish, the souvenir salesman who operates by the ancient Sphinx; Tarok and Blackeye, mercenary assassins with a surprising amount of knowledge about videogame developers, and Bulbul the bouncer from the fashionable club, Camella Loca.
