BECOME A STUDENT OF KNOWLEDGE Enter the classical Muslim world in a story-driven RPG inspired by the Islamic scholarly tradition. Travel from Madinah and Baghdad to Cordoba and Nishapur. Study with respected teachers, meet scholars and students on the road, explore historic centers of learning, and build your own place in a living chain of knowledge. KNOWLEDGE IS YOUR WEAPON Encounters unfold through turn-based munazara—scholarly debates where careful reasoning matters more than force. Read your opponent’s intent, protect your Resolve, build Focus, and answer with the right discipline. Use abilities such as Citation, Isnad Probe, Qiyas, and Precedent to counter Pressure, Deceit, and Composure. Keep a Dua in reserve to recover when a debate turns against you. FORGE YOUR CHAIN Follow the Golden Path through eight story chapters. Complete each city’s central quest to forge another link in your personal chain of transmission. Earn five Milestone Seals and unlock the doors of Majlis al-Bahth for the Grand Debate finale. GROW FROM STUDENT TO SCHOLAR Victories, lessons, and exploration increase your ‘Ilm. As your knowledge rank grows, so do your Patience—maximum Resolve—and Clarity—maximum Focus. LEARN THROUGH DEFEAT Losing a debate never ends your journey. Defeat leaves you with Doubt, temporarily weakening your arguments until you visit a mosque to reflect, recover, and return with renewed clarity. PRACTICE ADAB Conversations are shaped by the manners of scholarship: Respect, Humility, Clarity, Patience, and Fairness. How you speak matters as much as what you know, and your choices shape how others respond to you. EXPLORE A LIVING WORLD Walk the overworld from al-Andalus to Khurasan. Discover libraries, mosques, markets, booksellers, and historic cities. Meet roaming Road Scholars, named Challengers with distinct styles, and Outsiders whose questions cross traditions. BUILD YOUR CODEX Every scholar, school, and concept you encounter is recorded in an illustrated archive. Your adventure becomes a growing reference library that documents the people, places, and ideas you discover. CUSTOMIZE YOUR STUDENT Unlock new outfits and personalize your Student of Knowledge through the Wardrobe. Some optional wardrobe items are available through in-app purchase, and eligible purchases can be restored across your Apple devices. FEATURES • Story-driven role-playing adventure • Eight historic cities and eight main chapters • Turn-based scholarly debate system • Character growth through ‘Ilm, Patience, and Clarity • Dialogue choices grounded in Adab • Side encounters, challengers, and road scholars • Illustrated Codex of scholars, schools, and concepts • Optional purchasable costumes Chains of Knowledge transforms study, debate, character, and discovery into an interactive journey through the Islamic scholarly tradition.
