Gilgamesh and the Tree of Life tells the story of its titular hero and his feisty, canine-like companion Enkidu as they journey across the historic lands of Beth Nahrain to recover the scattered leaves of the divine Tree of Life—the very heart of mortal existence.

Gilgamesh and Enkidu are joined by the spirited Princess Inanna, who vows to save her homeland from a looming threat. The trio sets out on a mission to retrieve the scattered leaves of the Tree of Life and liberate the various tribes and cities of Beth Nahrain from the grip of a wicked god and their legions of undead demons. 

Along the way, our heroes will encounter colorful tribespeople, battle mythological monsters, meet powerful deities, take part in traditional folk dances, and strike down demon after demon—all across the cradle of civilization and the heavens above it.
