Robbers of the Dead
Pharaoh Khufu of the Fourth Dynasty has built a wonderous monument, the year is 2560 BC. The pharaoh has built a pyramid to serve as a tomb for when he dies.
You may need a bit of background information just so you know the interior design of the pyramid and what choices you should make.
The tradition of pyramid building started in Ancient Egypt as a sophistication of the idea of a mastaba or "platform" covering the royal tomb. Later, several stacked mastabas were used. Early pyramids, such as the Step Pyramid of King Zoser (Djoser) at Saqqara by the famous Egyptian architect, Imhotep, illustrate this connection.
The great pyramid was built over a 23 year period. The site was first prepared, and blocks of stone were transported and placed. An outer casing of limestone was then used to smooth the surface. A gold cap is used to top off the top of the pyramid.
Be Prepared. You must now penetrate the Great Pyramid to steal his treasures to feed your family. What time of day do you want to start?
