Siege of Baghdad

The House of Wisdom is gradually turning into a deadly trap. The invading forces are drawing ever closer, safe havens are becoming scarcer, and the simple struggle for survival is complicated by the presence of something completely alien to the human world. Exploring the rooms, you must search for materials, useful items, and weapons capable of harnessing this unusual cosmic substance. The resulting flasks can be used to set enemies on fire, blind them, or destroy barriers, making alchemical knowledge a vital tool for the hero.

The building itself is designed as a single space with multiple interconnected rooms. Locked passages, hidden bypasses, and complex mechanisms force you to carefully examine your surroundings and return to familiar places with new possibilities. The deeper Yusuf penetrates, the more the presence of an unknown threat becomes apparent. Some creatures are indestructible, so encounters with them become a test of your ability to quickly navigate and use the environment for survival.
