    The unique blending of 3D gameplay elements blended seamlessly with exquisitely rendered 2D backgrounds works extremely well, and there is so much Egyptian flavor I was half expecting to see the National Geographic or Discovery Channel logo in the corner of the screen.

    This game is capable of sucking away hours of your life without you noticing, which is always a great sign of addictive and highly entertaining gameplay.

    But the chief difficulty is simply sustaining your interest. It's boring and easy, and it takes too long.

    The idea isn't bad, but the campaign is stupidly long. The levels are extremely repetitive, and the game isn't addicting- it's boring. The game feels endless, and there's no motive to play it. The achievements on it are awful- getting to the highest rank will take hundreds of hours play. As for the exclusive challenge mode, it is literally pressing one button as fast as you can. That's not a challenge. That's pointless.… Expand
