About the game
Sobek, the Crocodile God, can also be very merciful to you and help you get rid of some of your corruption. Obviously, you will have to show him your gratitude. How? You have to build a statue in his honor into your Sanctuary. Be careful, though, because Sobek’s generosity is limited and only the fastest architects can enjoy it. So don’t waste your time!
