KHAMUT

Explorer Daniel is called to inspect a fresh discovery beneath the sand. It is Khamut’s tomb, a place bound to a cursed priest who swore to guard it forever. When Daniel breaks the seal, the passages lock and the curse marks him. To escape he must learn old rites, read carvings, rebuild stone mechanisms, and balance light and silence so the guardian does not notice.
The tomb shifts as you move. Sand creeps. Lamps dim. Whispers answer. Survival depends on reading the signs, offering at the right altars, and keeping the taboos that calm the curse.
