I was pleasantly surprised by this game. It feels a lot like a Zelda game. The main character, Sphinx, even has a sword that he uses much like Link does. I can't really say main character because there are actually two different characters. The second being the Cursed Mummy (now the title makes sense, huh?). The levels you play with the mummy are actually pretty fun because he can't fight and instead you use him to solve puzzles. Being undead, you do sadistic things to him in order to solve a puzzle. For example, suppose you need to get through some bars to throw a switch, one way to do this would be to go get smashed in between two giant rocks so that you're paper thin and then slip through the bars.

Overall, I find this game very nice and could recommend it to almost anyone.
