Game Storyline You are a young and ambitious archeologist on a mission to discover the buried treasures of the Egyptian Pharaohs in the Valley of the Kings and to find the hidden tombs of the kings of Ancient Egypt that are filled with gold and priceless artifacts. You will be required to assemble a large crew of local workers that you lead to make your discoveries.
