Game broke at talk to mummy at ridden town quest, mummy does not give another quest and I cannot continue

ive only played for about 45 minutes so far, but this game changed my life in the best way possible, i was walking down the street and found a 20 dollar bill that i spent on gas station prerolls that put me in the hospital for a week

The game as a whole feels like Ps1 Darkstone, Which is a hardcore rpg, dnd classic, As a fan of darkstone i like it, Just maybe add some grunts for the mc, add more sound effects and I would say its a 7/10, Definitely a fast paced time killer.

Very nostalgic for me as i used to play this on my phone when i was younger, also noticed the developer is working on a sequel which i am very excited to see how it turns out!
