Qbel

Guide Khepri deep into the pharaohs' tombs

Descend into the tombs of ancient Egypt and outwit the guardians of the sand.

Qbel is a fast, hand-crafted maze chase dressed in the gold and lapis of the pharaohs. You play as Khepri, a golden scarab darting through torchlit labyrinths far below the desert. Collect every glowing ankh, snatch the sun-discs to turn the hunt on its head, and keep just ahead of the mummy guardians as you spiral deeper and deeper.

A CLASSIC CHASE, REIMAGINED Steer with a single swipe and thread your way through corridors carved with hieroglyphs. Clear each tomb by gathering all of its ankh-dots while the guardians close in from every direction. Easy to pick up, hard to put down.

SEIZE THE SUN-DISC Grab a radiant sun-disc and the tables turn. The guardians scatter in panic, and for a few precious seconds you can banish them for a flurry of bonus points. Time your power runs well to chain banishments and push your score ever higher.

EVER-DEEPER TOMBS Dozens of distinct labyrinths await, from the Tomb of Khufu to the Temple of Sekhmet and far beyond. Every descent grows more perilous as the guardians quicken and multiply. How deep can you go before they catch you?

GATHER RELICS, STOCK YOUR SATCHEL Every tomb you clear and every daily tribute fills your purse with coins. Spend them in the Bazaar on a satchel of handy charms:

• Extra Life to start a run with a life held in reserve
• Scarab Shield to shrug off the first touch of a guardian
• Slumber Charm to slow the guardians for a whole run
• Oracle Hint to reveal the nearest sun-disc
• Ankh of Return to rise again on the very spot you fell
• Sand of Passage to skip a tomb altogether

EARN YOUR LEGEND Track your deepest descent, best score, total stars and guardians banished. Unlock ornate medallions as you hit new milestones, from your First Light to becoming an Eternal Wanderer of the tombs.
