Book of Thoth

A great curse has fallen upon your village, transforming family and friends into helpless birds.

It's up to you to reverse the curse by finding the Book of Thoth, a magic text hidden deep in the Nile River Valley.

Thoth, the benevolent god of writing and knowledge, won't give up this tome so easily. Thoth isn't evil, but he knows your plans may upset the cosmic order of the universe and this future cannot come to be.

He guards his book using his powerful magic and creature summons.

Find and collect 9 golden scarabs to prove your worth. Along the way, look for hearts to restore your sprit and ankhs for protection. 

Will you find the powerful magic to save your family and friends or will you only further your sorrows?
