Description:

Gilgamesh is the first hero of Western literature. All our heroes since have borrowed his virtues: courage, loyalty, selflessness, and unwavering dedication to a goal. The adventure continues as Gilgamesh and his new friend Enkidu slay monsters and save the city, only to incur the wrath of the powerful goddess Ishtar when Gilgamesh rejects her. Ishtar takes her revenge by sending death to Enkidu. The king then sets out alone to destroy the greatest monster of all: death.
