Storyline

1258. The Mongols have taken Baghdad and the House of Wisdom, the city's great library, is burning. You are Yusuf, a master alchemist, and your daughter is dying. Somewhere inside the House is Iksyr, the only cure. The invaders hold the halls above. Below, the House's scholars left cosmic experiments that were never meant to be found. Scavenge materials, craft alchemical flasks, fight with the strange weapons the House's scholars kept secret, and solve its locked routes and hidden shortcuts to descend.
