XIDER Games will release Ankh: Curse of the Scarab King for Nintendo DS on 14th November 2008. This comical adventure game lets players hold the scorching streets of Cairo in the palm of their hands as they guide Assil on a quest to lift a deadly curse. For a taste of the hot and sizzling environments, view the new Ankh: Curse of the Scarab King DS trailer.
Assil has landed himself in a world full of trouble after desecrating a Mummy’s tomb. The Mummy, disturbed by the raucous behaviour in his resting place, awakes to find seven urns smashed by the brave young hero. Six smashed urns would have resulted in a mere warning, but seven is enough to land Assil with a death curse. From here it’s a race against time as gamers of all ages guide Assil through the craziest adventure of his life.
