mum’s the word board game project

Mum’s The Word begins in ancient Egypt where a wise woman and her 4 teenage priestess daughters are practicing Heka (magic) and accidentally open a time portal. The portal spits out 5 futuristic devices: smartphones. As the girls ogle the new discoveries, their mother is pulled into the spiral of the time stream along with one of the phones and the unfinished mummified corpse of the tyrannous Bum-Ra. The portal somehow awakens Bum-Ra and now he's on the hunt for more Heka to devour and restore himself back to his former glory! The girls must communicate using the phones to bring their MuM back home. The only written language they understand is hieroglyphs so emojis will have to be their saving grace.
