October 1906 a team of archaeologists start the excavation of King Anum deep within the pyramids of Egypt.
In the process an evil curse is released and the whole team of archaeologists die!
No one ever since has even got close to the cursed Tomb of King Anum
Rumour has it that the archaeologists were in fact looking for a hidden treasure deep within the tomb - a red coloured stone believed to be the heart of King Anum
It was believed to bring much wealth but once separated from King Anum, the curse is released, in a race against time your task is to make it out of the pyramid alive!
The heart is in the chest of King Anum now a Mummy locked within the tomb
