Sterling: The Egyptian Adventure

Before you start Sterling's route:

Please note that Sterling's route is the most difficult route in the game. The capers are usually long and very confusing, and capers pop up when you do not expect them. Though the guides on the wiki will help, it is recommended that players do not try to do Sterling's route first.
