The Curse of the Pharaohs is an add-on for the popular video game Assassin's Creed Origins. Developed by Ubisoft, it introduces a whole new storyline set four years after the events of the main game. In this expansion, players are taken to the afterlife of ancient Egypt where they must uncover and put an end to a curse that plagues the land. The main idea behind Curse of the Pharaohs is the exploration of supernatural elements within the game's historical setting. As players venture into the afterlife, they will encounter mythical creatures, deities, and powerful beings from Egyptian mythology. This expansion expands on the traditional gameplay mechanics of the main game, offering new quests, challenges, and mysteries to solve.

In conclusion, I’d most definitely like to add many thanks to any and all of you reading here. The video blog installments across these past six months have been great fun to prepare and deliver, but it’s also very nice for me to once again return to written journalism; I hope some of you will enjoy the “switch-back” in formats. 2020 promises to bring a solid mixture of both types of communication, so please stay tuned – and, if you feel these mini-histories and commentaries are interesting, informative, or worthy, please don’t hesitate to share them with any OZIFIED friends by guiding them to The OZ Museum Facebook page.

The video blog installments across these past six months have been great fun to prepare and deliver, but it s also very nice for me to once again return to written journalism; I hope some of you will enjoy the switch-back in formats. As an average of forty-thousand visitors annually tour the museum, it s lovely to imagine the level of excitement this new treasure will elicit in the years ahead.

This expansion expands on the traditional gameplay mechanics of the main game, offering new quests, challenges, and mysteries to solve. One of the standout features of Curse of the Pharaohs is the meticulously crafted afterlife regions that players can explore. The developers have recreated iconic locations such as the Valley of the Kings and the city of Thebes with stunning attention to detail.

Wicked witch guaed

Okay, here’s a question about the MGM Wizard of Oz that I actually haven’t seen discussed before. When the Scarecrow, Tin Woodman, and Cowardly Lion are trying to infiltrate the Wicked Witch of the West’s castle to rescue Dorothy, the Scarecrow says he has a plan to get in that requires the Lion to lead. This brings on the classic line where the Lion agrees, but says he wants the others to talk him out of it. They’re then ambushed by three guards, whom they manage to knock out and steal their uniforms, using those to sneak in.

But was this the Scarecrow’s original plan, or something improvised after the guards noticed them? If the latter, what WAS his plan? I suppose we’ll never know. There are many oddities about the scene anyway. Why were they noticed by exactly the number of guards they needed to knock out, while none of the others even came close to seeing them?

How did it happen that the uniforms fit them, and no one saw that their faces didn’t look anything like those of the other largely identical green-faced guards? There’s no scene comparable to this in the book, in which only Dorothy and Toto are present for the Wicked Witch’s death. MGM presumably wanted to get all of the stars on screen for this climactic moment. What’s amusing is an old trailer I saw mentioned that the film included everything from the book, including “the rescue of Dorothy,” which was original with the movie. And while the guards can’t spot a lion in a guard uniform, they seem more component than the Witch’s soldiers in the book, who are scared away by a mere roar from the Lion.

Their chant, by the way, is officially just nonsense syllables, not “All we own, we owe” or “Oh, we love the old one,” contrary to popular rumor.

The idea of tricking somebody by dressing up in their henchmen’s uniforms is an old one, with TV Tropes citing The Iliad as an early example. The Trojans take the uniforms from some dead Greeks and put them on in order to launch an ambush. More recent appearances often tend to reference the Oz scene, complete with the uniforms fitting perfectly. Well, except when they make a joke out of it, and the uniform either fits terribly or manages to fit despite the knocked-out enemy being nowhere near the same size.

Or sometimes the people trying to steal the outfits will be the ones who get knocked out. Star Wars played this fairly straight with the protagonists wearing Storm Trooper uniforms, which conveniently also covered their faces, but weren’t perfect fits. That’s presumably why Leia thought Luke was short for a Storm Trooper, even though it never looked to me like most of them were all that tall.

Then again, that could just be because Darth Vader towered over them. Gwendoline Christie, who plays Captain Phasma, is REALLY tall.

The Star Wars bit is parodied in Final Fantasy VI if you have Locke rescue Celes while in the clothing of an Imperial soldier.

Locke mentions when stealing the clothes that they’re a little too big, while the merchant outfit is a tight fit. It’s made even funnier by the battle screen convention in that game that makes the enemies considerably bigger than the heroes even when it doesn’t make sense.

FF7 has a bit where your characters dress in Shinra military uniforms, and these characters include the lion-like Red XIII, who has trouble walking on his hind legs and a tail that hangs out the back in Cowardly Lion fashion.

[In this classic movie still, only one Winkie is fully visible – but his implement is already lowered to accompany the liquidation (through the set floor) of Wicked Witch Margaret Hamilton.]

These areas are filled with side quests, hidden treasures, and unique boss battles against the reanimated pharaohs. The main protagonist, Bayek, is tasked with unraveling the mystery behind the curse while navigating through treacherous environments and battling formidable foes. Players will need to make use of Bayek's combat skills, stealth abilities, and cunning to overcome the challenges. Along the way, they will also encounter friendly faces from the main game who offer assistance and guidance. Curse of the Pharaohs is a fantastic addition to Assassin's Creed Origins, providing an immersive and thrilling experience for both fans of the series and newcomers alike. The expansion delves deep into the lore and mythology of ancient Egypt, offering a unique and supernatural twist to the already engaging gameplay. With its stunning visuals, engaging storyline, and challenging gameplay, Curse of the Pharaohs is a must-play for any Assassin's Creed fan..
