The Enigmatic Congo

The Congo Basin, spanning across Central Africa, is a realm of lush rainforests, towering mountains, and enigmatic waterways.

Facing Unseen Danger

However, their journey is not without its perils. The team soon realizes that they are being hunted by a formidable and unknown force.
