  1. As for me, I had a surprisingly good time helping Maya struggle to bring all of the events back into the bosom of the benevolent gods. Tight story, excellent puzzles, attractive graphics -- what else could we grouchy adventure game players ask for?
  2. I gave every category about 80% in my scoring, and that sums up The Egyptian Prophecy pretty well. Nothing about it is amazing, but nothing about it is bad, either.

    It's very short, and can be beaten in a matter of hours, but at $20, it's an excellent buy as it is inspired, and engaging. [Aug 2004, p.70]
  4. Tried and true adventure game fare with several good puzzles integrated nicely into the story, especially at the end.
  5. It is at once intriguing, educating, amusing and ultimately fulfilling.
  6. If you’re a hard-core gamer looking for an action-packed challenge then go elsewhere. EP is designed for a mainstream audience and with a short play time you’ll probably wish you picked up "Tomb Raider 17" instead.

Graphics, sound, and pretty things don't make a game, they make a movie, and that means this isn't a game then, and hence my score. Full Review »
