Sphinx and the Cursed Mummy (GameCube) Reader Review

Posted by By Revelade 0 Number of reads 489 Posted 25.01.2007

Sphinx & The Cursed Mummy is a game developed by Eurocom and published by THQ. You control Sphinx and the Mummy and travel from cities to caves to temples.

The game uses an Egyptian style with tombs, mummies and even statues that depict the gods. The game can draw distances from several kilometers. You'll see chasms, lava and rivers.

The music combines the Arabic scales and dramatic as well as intense sequences. The opening theme is one of the faster beats in the game.

The story goes on that king tut is kidnapped on his wedding day and is transformed into a mummy by set. Sphinx tries to find tuts missing pieces as well as defeat Set.

The gameplay involves a combination of combat, platforming and puzzle solving. Combat is handled with the A button, jumping and jump smashing. Some enemies require different techniques to be beaten. Platforming involves jumping from an area to another, climbing to heights and swinging on ropes. Puzzles involve finding secret items, doing things in the right order or more.

Although I think that the plot of the game is rather generic, the game is playable and the graphics and music are rich in detail.
