ancient egypt murder mystery

Ancient Egypt Murder Mystery

Monday, May 11th- Saturday May 16th

Set on a remote desert excavation site in 1932 somewhere near Mount Sinai in Egypt.

Professor Dough Upmore, an archaeologist led an expedition to uncover the tomb of a lesser known Pharoh from the Ancient times. His expedition team had just unearthed the long-lost tomb of Pharoh Rah-mi Nu-dl, who was said to have been cursed by the Gods themselves.

While exploring the tomb the mystical seal was broken, much to the dismay of the more superstitious of those in the party, superstition only grew when a strange sickness befell those who were present at the unveiling. Tensions escalate when the Professor and the one responsible for breaking the seal was found dead under mysterious circumstances. With paranoia spreading through the camp, your team must figure out what killed him, whether it was indeed the work of the ancient curse or perhaps a more earthly threat from someone with an eye on his vast fortune

Was this the work of the mysterious curse.. or was this a member of the group.. could it be YOU?
