Official description

The legendary elephant's graveyard is the greatest undiscovered mystery of the dark continent. The hazardous quest for its discovery has cost the life of many an intrepid explorer, one of whom was your father.

As his only son, you are curious to uncover the secrets that are so violently guarded from the outside world. You now feel compelled to succeed where your father failed.

As 'Tusker' you will experience all the thrills, danger and excitement of Africa as you go in search of your father's dream.

You journey through deserts, river caves, undiscovered jungles, swamps, cannibal villages and sinister temples, where you will encounter anything from hostile nomads, angry natives and hungry zombies, to blood-thirsty dinosaurs, voracious animal life and very unhappy witch doctors. Using all your cunning and finely-tuned fighting skills, you realise that: One Man's Dream has become One Man's Destiny.
