The Shadow of Aten
http://www.xgpgaming.com/news/news.php?id=3028
"You will play the part of an attractive and enigmatic adventurer called Allan Scott, who’s exploring the fascinating and mysterious Egypt. The story is based on true events about a cult - the cult of God Aten. A surprising adventure that will combine action, suspense, and mystery. All this will unwrap itself in scenarios of myth and mystery like in the Valley of the Kings between pharaoh’s tombstones, Cairo, and the oasis of El-Fayum etc. But The Shadow of Aten will have much more than action and adventure - there will be multiple game mechanics, from camel riding to truck pursuits, infiltration system, shooters, etc. More at www.theshadowofaten.com"
