Ever wondered what those people adorning the walls of ancient Egyptian tombs were thinking? Well, wonder no more! Tales from the Tomb presents a series of ten sketches interspersed with heart-pounding footage from Assassin’s Creed Origins, to illustrate each skit. Hear from tomb-wall citizens, priests, Gods, and pharaohs as they discuss topics from the genius behind pyramid construction – nice one Brian – to a gladiator who tested positive for mummy dust…”What death do, hasn’t involved a little zoom from the tomb, a few pharaoh moans?”
Ubisoft’s self-aware humour extends to their own game mechanics: “Did you see that assassin shoot five arrows from his bow like it was a shotgun?” – crazy right?! It seems a ‘human assassin’ is having quite the affect on the future of ancient Egypt and its Gods – Anubis and Horus are pretty concerned, meanwhile Osiris is a couple of reeds short of a papyrus.
