Ancient Egypt in Video Games
Author: Jennifer Cromwell

Publisher: Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG
Release Date: 2026-03-14
This volume is the first to focus on the presentation of Ancient Egypt in video games. The contributions examine diverse topics concerning how Egyptian history, culture, monuments, and the land itself are portrayed across a diverse range of game genres. Over forty years of video games are analysed, including those from well-known franchises (Assassin’s Creed; Tomb Raider), as well as those from independent developers. The games studied employ Ancient Egypt in different ways, as the main historical setting of the game, as the inspiration for the game’s world, or as a point of reference for specific aspects of the game. Contributions by game designers from Oneiric Studios also reveal the motivations for using Egypt as the source for their game design and narrative (Path of Ra). The number of games discussed in this volume and their diversity demonstrates the important role that games play in shaping the popular imagination of Ancient Egypt.

Women have been instrumental for decades in shaping the peace movement in Canada. In this wide-ranging and unique collection, 37 women activists and authors document and analyse the historical and current events of the movement from the early part of this century to the present. The variety of issues raised by these historical, documentary, theoretical, cultural, and creative writings express the diverse strategies of women who work for peace and social justice. These women eloquently imagine, think, and act for a more peaceful world. At the same time they demonstrate that the peace movement has been substantially influenced by feminism.
