Sphinx and the cursed mummy pc free download

Every level feels fresh and unique with the title never serving up a dull moment. Sphinx, like most action-adventure games, has its share of swordplay, sneakery, and puzzles. But it also features a compelling twist: In addition to the titular hero, you also control an unkillable mummy who used to be King Tut. The beauty of this?

All the traps our undead embalmee encounters serve only to power him up through his puzzle-laden levels. Set him ablaze, and he can burn his way through wooden trapdoors. Squash him pancake thin, and he can slip between metal bars.

It's very clever, and you'll wish you got to spend more time with him. That's not to say the action parts aren't enjoyable; they just seem bland when compared with the creative juices flowing through the Mummy's levels. And while the game world is certainly pretty, I wish it had included more bountiful side quests and nonplayer characters to interact with throughout the adventure, like you'd find in Zeldafs Hyrule. Still, the main quest makes amends, and collecting monsters is a fun diversion--it's a solid game.

Unlike my pals on the page, I preferred playing as Cat-Boy. Those parts are simple and elegant: fun but not overly challenging combat and puzzles that take a minimum amount of head scratching. I also enjoyed exploring the vivid world and story--the game really takes advantage of its rich Egyptian setting. This could have been as engrossing as a good Disney movie--if it had any voice acting. Instead, you watch characters' lips move as you click along and read.

Ancient Egyptian legends come to life in 3D graphics and breathtaking gameplay animations. They are taken to Uruk, "the land of darkness", by their master Imhotep where they eventually find the Blade. Horus is attacked and supposedly killed by a deadly ray that protects the Castle of Uruk, a mysterious building that houses evil.

Sphinx retrieves the Blade, but while trying to escape is also attacked by the ray and forced to travel to an unknown location through the use of a portal system.

Meanwhile, the young Prince Tutenkhamen of Luxor celebrates his birthday, but his older brother, Akhenaten, captures him and performs a ritual that turns him into a mummy.

Sphinx arrives and interrupts the ritual, causing Tutenkhamen and Akhenaten to be teleported to the Castle of Uruk. Sphinx learns that fragments of Tutenkhamen's soul are stored in Canopic Vases, and takes on the task of recollecting them to restore him to his former self. In the Castle, Akhenaten gloats that the recent events were nothing but a minor setback.

The player then learns that "Akhenaten" is in fact the dark god Set in disguise, and that the real Akhenaten was mummified in the same way as Tutenkhamen to allow Set to assume his form.

However, because of Sphinx's actions he cannot disguise himself as Tutenkhamen. Imhotep creates Bas-ket, who can sneak inside the castle to deliver the Vases to the Mummy. But we know very little about these forces or if they really exist.

Other people are simply trying to understand what happened and the real nature of each world. Recently, strange things have been happening… News is received from many places that problems are appearing; the normally peaceful villages are now at war, odd monsters appear in valleys where there was once placid ecology… Nobody knows why…. The chain of communication between the worlds remains partially abandoned, partially destroyed and so unstable that to use it is a sure way to cause even more problems and dangers.
