An adventure RPG game inspired by ancient Egypt

Sphinx and the Cursed Mummy is an RPG adventure game that is inspired by ancient Egypt. The game is played from a third-person perspective and features a cartoon art style. The player will need to use an array of skills and abilities to fight the mythical monsters they will encounter.

The cartoonish style and third-person gameplay make this game comparable to the Crash Bandicoot series of games, though the setting is based on real-world historical information, similar to the Assassin’s Creed franchise.

A modern release of a cult classic

Sphinx and the Cursed Mummy was originally released in 2003 for consoles, like the Sony PS2 and Nintendo GameCube. This version of the game brings an authentic experience to modern PCs. For the most part, the game is unchanged, though the developers have made a number of changes to support modern hardware, such as allowing the game to be played on ultrawide monitors.

Third-person exploration

The game puts the player in control of Sphinx, a young Egyptian man who must travel the world using magical portals and attempt to foil the evil plans of Set. The game contains elements of exploration, RPG mechanics, combat, and platforming. There is also a cast of interesting and somewhat zany characters to interact with.

A solid re-release

While Sphinx and the Cursed Mummy is just a re-release of an old game, it is a very solid re-release that adds a number of changes “under the hood” to improve the experience on modern systems. That being said, it was something of a cult game originally and is unlikely to carry much appeal beyond that initial fanbase.

PROS

  • An interesting story and setting that should appeal to a wide audience
  • A good-looking game despite its age
  • Difficulty level suitable for casual players
  • Supports a range of modern hardware changes, such as ultrawide monitors

CONS

  • Quite a cult game — may lack appeal outside of that cult following
