About the Game

Immerse yourself in the dark and mysterious history of Ancient Egypt, where fate is determined by prophecy and every step can bring you closer to destruction.

You play as Meritamon, daughter of Pharaoh Akhenaten and Nefertiti. While her father renounces the old gods in favor of a single deity, Meritamon's life is overshadowed by a prophecy. The priests have predicted her death—by crocodile, snake, or dog. To save their heir, her parents decide to destroy everything that could lead to her demise. But when the girl finds a small puppy and refuses to give it up, she decides to escape from the palace and take control of her own destiny for the first time.

The game combines atmospheric storytelling and world exploration. You can expect:

  • A 2D side-scrolling adventure set in Ancient Egypt.

  • Puzzles and interactions with the environment that open the way to new locations.

  • A tense story of choice and predestination, where each of the heroine's actions brings her closer to unraveling the prophecy.

  • A living world filled with temple secrets, desert dangers, and palace intrigues.

Meritaton must decide: can the predestined ending be changed, or does fate always find a way to fulfill itself?
