The Great Sphinx of Giza is a mythical creature with the head of a human, a falcon, a cat, or a sheep, and the body of a lion, with the wings of an eagle. It is located right next to the Great Pyramids of Giza and is said to be under the pharaoh’s curse. There have been decades of debate among researchers about the possibility of tunnels and chambers underneath this beast’s paws. The rumors about this great statue became so wild, and debated that there is a hidden library, called the Hall of Records, which holds the answers to the Great Pyramids, the history of mankind, and the only exit. You and your friends are visiting the Sphinx as tourists, and one wrong turn turns into several wrong turns. You have found your way into a dark chamber below the Sphinx. Can you uncover the long-buried secrets of mankind and find the Hall of Records? Or will you become the next victims of the pharaoh’s curse?

Of the three games I played, this was my favorite. The space was large. We were told 80% of teams don't make it to the last room, so be ready to ask for a hint if you feel you are slowing down. One puzzle near the end was brutally frustrating, and one it the middle was a serious time sync and felt out of place thematically. Overall though, it was a fun game with its flaws
