About This Game

To woo the history teacher, lovestruck Professor Raventhorpe builds a time-traveling elevator to swipe Nefertari's lost tiara from the past. But when Ari pops by for extra credit, he's swept into an era-hopping adventure—and into the path of history’s greatest tomb raider, Belzoni.

Ari Buktu (“Ari Buck-Too”) delivers a heartwarming 2.5D adventure with the spectacle of a summer blockbuster, created by a former Disney ride designer. This 4‑hour single‑player experience is loaded with hidden collectibles, humorous banter, and warm vibes.

Laugh, uncover hidden treasures, and unravel mysteries in an epic, story-driven adventure—a heartfelt coming-of-age tale for all ages.

Dash through ancient tombs, swing over treacherous canyons, race on minecarts, and ride the runaway Anytime Elevator—daring puzzles and lost treasures await around every corner.

Dive into 6 hand-crafted worlds where the zany charm of a Saturday morning cartoon collides with the pulse-pounding thrill of a theme park ride—an adventure unlike anything before.

Team up with Professor Raventhorpe (voiced by Ray O’Hare) to conquer time and save history—while Joe Gaudet's Ari steals your heart, and a sweeping orchestral score heightens every thrilling moment.

Wishlist Ari Buktu today and get ready to claim Nefertari’s Tiara—before history repeats itself!
