    The bad dialogue took away for the otherwise sold Egyptian feel to the title.
  2. Cheat Code Central
    72
    The tried-and-true formula is executed almost flawlessly, but there isn't any innovation to speak of.
  3. Just Adventure

    Where the game falters unlike any other in recent memory though is the dialogue. Not the voice-acting mind you, but the dialogue itself.
