How close does the game get to the real place?
In the game
A great Nile city centred on the Temple of Ptah, where Bayek hunts a member of the Order of the Ancients and gets drawn into the fate of the sacred Apis bull.
The real place
Memphis was Egypt's capital in the Old Kingdom and still a major religious centre under the Ptolemies. Today little survives beyond the remains of the Temple of Ptah precinct, a fallen colossus of Ramesses II and an alabaster sphinx, shown in an open-air museum among palm groves.
Visiting
It is usually combined with Saqqara and Dahshur in a day from Cairo. Allow under an hour for the museum.
