Scholars of the South Tigris is a new stand-alone game in the South Tigris trilogy set during the height of the Abbasid Caliphate, circa 830 AD. The Caliph has called upon the keenest minds to acquire scientific manuscripts from all over the known world.

In this Golden Age of wisdom and knowledge, be mindful not to neglect one in pursuit of the other.
