Court of Ma'at

Set in the tranquil palace of Pharaoh Horem, Court of Ma'at is a choice-driven visual novel where you walk the line between a benevolent king and a feared husband. In this world, morality is watched, judged, and remembered, and every choice nudges the balance on the scales of Ma'at, the goddess of truth and justice.

Your aim is to govern Egypt with integrity, keep Ma'at in your good graces, and navigate the demands of ancient law, philosophy, and myth. Will you act with honor and preserve the peace? Will you heed the will of the gods? Will you guide your children through their lessons and the histories they inherit?

What you do matters: The story unfolds through branching, consequence-driven decisions that affect political alliances, family dynamics, and public perception. A hidden morality system tracks your choices and subtly influences Ma'at’s presence in scenes and judgments.

Play and scope: As pharaoh, you investigate crimes, question citizens who lie about theft, murder, fraud, and desecration of the dead, and render judgments that shape the realm. The courtroom and the courtly halls become stages for ethical dilemmas inspired by real Egyptian law, ritual, and myth.

World and lore: Authentic Ancient Egyptian setting inspired by history and myth, with historical anecdotes about gods, burials, flowers, and the rites that bind a society. The game touches on court drama, the duties of rulership, and the delicate balance between public duty and private life.

Endings and consequences: There are multiple endings, decided by the path you walk and the lines you cross. Some outcomes reflect harmony and justice, others the hard lessons of power. If your heart falters, it may be tested by Amut, the devourer of hearts, reminding you that there are consequences to every choice.

Notes on tone: The narrative confronts themes of authority, loyalty, and accountability. Some settings depict political and romantic intrigue, including the realities of court life and the politics surrounding a harem, with all its risks and responsibilities.
