Poor Pharaoh. He always loved his little sister, Imoutohotep, but he just never could manage to confess his feelings for her. Now it is too late, for she has been struck down by illness. Or is it too late? Pharaoh comes up with the "great" idea to bring back Imoutohotep as a resurrected mummy, because bringing back mummies has never gone wrong before. Oh wait.
Imoutohotep does return, and not even as some flesh devouring monster. But the spell does not go off without at least a small hitch. Imoutohotep's beloved cat Nyanyanhotep is also brought back, though for some reason she is transformed into a catgirl, and she doesn't think much of Pharaoh. And Imoutohotep herself is not nearly as pleased to be brought back as a mummy as Pharaoh expected.
Can Pharaoh find love with his darling Imoutohotep as she is now? Will he perhaps find love in a different and unexpected place with the acerbic Nyanyanhotep? Will he be able to convince High Priest Khasekhemre to accept his mummy love with anyone? As he deals with such struggles of the heart, he must also continue to handle his responsibilities as Pharaoh, and not neglect his duty as Egypt's ruler and god.
And it seems all the above may all be the least of his worries, for a series of unsettling events begins to occur in the palace...
Screenshots:
And this is why you always read the fine print before casting a mummy resurrection spell.
According to wikipedia, in Ancient Egypt incest was indeed used at times to preserve the royal lineage. I don't think wikipedia took mummies into account.
Perhaps Pharaoh is not the only oddball in the palace
Uh, sure. A boyish figure is the reason. It has absolutely NOTHING to do with using free sprites from multiple sources with clearly different art styles... *whistles*
And now, I present to you, mummy cleavage! Oh **** what am I doing with my life?
This is always the proper response to "Where did you get the embalming fluid and knife?"
Demo Links:
Yes, I have more than just screens, I have a playable demo. All the above screenshots are from scenes you can encounter in the demo.

Questions for those who played the demo.
For those of you who actually play through the demo all the way through (and I don't just mean getting the early bad end), I have a few questions I'd appreciate an answer to. These are spoilerific questions though, so don't read them until you finish the demo.
