Egypt. A long, long time ago. After a forbidden party in a pyramid, young Assil gets struck by a horrible death curse. With just a few more hours to live, Assil has to find a way to talk to the only person who can now help him to remove this curse: the mighty pharaoh himself! During his wild adventure, Assil meets many strange and funny characters: the scary crocodile, the god of the underworld... and finally the woman of his dreams.
🌍️ Wikipedia:
Ankh is a 2005 graphic adventure game developed by the German company Deck13 and published by bhv Software. It features a three-dimensional environment with cinematic camera movement. Humor is an important aspect of the game, and the influence of classic LucasArts adventure games is noticeable.
Ankh is a remake of Ankh: The Tales of Mystery, a 1998 adventure game developed by Artex Software for the Acorn Archimedes.
Ankh spawned two sequels: Ankh: Heart of Osiris and Ankh: Battle of the Gods. In 2006, the original Ankh was ported to Linux and OS X. A Special Edition of the game was released in the UK in February 2007. A Nintendo DS port was released in 2008 under the title Ankh: Curse of the Scarab King.
Plot
The player takes the role of Assil, the son of a respected architect in Cairo. Assil is a party animal but at some point one of his party-nights turned out sour. When he tries to have some fun in the pyramids with two friends of his, he accidentally breaks some urns and thus disturbs the mummy resting in the pyramid. The mummy punishes Assil by placing a death curse on him, and now he has 24 hours to remove the curse and save himself. Later in the game Assil meets the Arabian ambassador's daughter Thara, who is also a playable character.
Jan Klose, Creative Director at Deck13 Interactive, also cited Monkey Island to be an influence for the Ankh series.
Notable engine features
• The cineastic camera feature dynamically follows the main character. The soundtrack does the same, similar to iMUSE.
• The player can control two characters simultaneously (similar to the Gobliiins series).
• This was the first commercial game to use the open source OGRE engine.
• Uses open source library CEGUI for user interface

Ankh est un pointer-et-cliquer d'aventure (sorti en 2006) en 3D prenant place dans l'Égypte antique, dans lequel le joueur incarne Assil - fils d'un respectable architecte du Caire, et animal nocturne notoire. Au cours de l'une de ses soirées il casse accidentellement des urnes et perturbe une momie reposant dans la pyramide. La momie le punit en plaçant une malédiction de mort sur lui, qu'il n'a que 24h pour lever...
L'égypte. Il y a très très longtemps.
A la suite d'une fête prohibée dans une pyramide, le jeune Assil (vous) est frappé d'une horrible malédiction de mort.
Avec seulement quelques heures à vivre, Assil doit trouver un moyen de parler à la seule personne qui peut à présent l'aider à éliminer ce fléau : le puissant pharaon en personne !
Au cours de son aventure, Assil fera la rencontre de nombreux personnages aussi étranges qu'amusants : le crocodile effrayant, le dieu de la mort ... et finalement la femme de ses rêves.
