    Take a really funny cartoon with all kinds of pop culture references and interesting characters. Add in several jokes that adults will understand and get a belly laugh from but is not too risqué for the kiddies. Throw in some really entertaining scenes like a camel getting the scrub through a car type wash or watching Assil rappel out the nose of a sphinx and you have Ankh.

    Ankh is brilliant. The puzzles are inventive, the storyline is genuinely funny and the completion of some of the more difficult puzzles is pleasurable rather than a relief.

    It's not quite the return of LucasArts-era cartoon adventures, but this cheerful game dishes out a lot of laughs.

    I only played the german version of this game, which is the original, so I can't say anything about the quality of the translations or speakers. But what I can say is that the german version is a very very good game! It really reminds me of the good old Lucas Arts adventures that we all love so much, because it has a similar style, great gags, logical riddles and VERY good speakers that fit to the characters, which create a very convenient atmosphere. The only reason why I don't give it a 10 is because it is a little too easy for an adventure-verteran like me. But that is probably just me and it still is a great game that I will definitely play again in a little while.… Expand
