    You have one of two choices: buy this game, with good graphics, nice gameplay and extra features, or buy "The Mummy" for PS1 with ugly graphics and a silly hopping man. Up to you.

    This game really is a waste of money. It's almost impossible to run out of life as Imhotep and it's far too easy and short. I would have struggled to get through £40 that quickly in the pub!!!

    graphically this game is slightly better than one from psx but you can't say it's for ps2! the gameplay is awful,controls are pretty bad and when you kill the enemies,they respawn if you leave the instance.and another problem is that the instances are all very similar and confusing,so you will ever face enemies without knowing if you have been on the instance or not...and soon graphically this game is slightly better than one from psx but you can't say it's for ps2! the gameplay is awful,controls are pretty bad and when you kill the enemies,they respawn if you leave the instance.and another problem is that the instances are all very similar and confusing,so you will ever face enemies without knowing if you have been on the instance or not...and soon you will get lost and annoyed. who created this game was lazy and/or stupid. i bought it because it was 11… Expand

    Las personas suelen creer que esta es la versión mejorada de la momia que salia en la vieja Playstation. pues no es así. es mas bien la secuela, basada en la segunda película. esta vez no fue lanzada por Konami, si no por Universal Interactive. en mi opinion la primera parte es mejor, mas largo y mejor pulida, acá se mejoran los gráficos pero la música decae, y se controla tanto aLas personas suelen creer que esta es la versión mejorada de la momia que salia en la vieja Playstation. pues no es así. es mas bien la secuela, basada en la segunda película. esta vez no fue lanzada por Konami, si no por Universal Interactive. en mi opinion la primera parte es mejor, mas largo y mejor pulida, acá se mejoran los gráficos pero la música decae, y se controla tanto a O'connell como a Inhotep. en 14 niveles bien diferenciados. aun así es un juego con toques de suspenso y aventura. aunque los enemigos magicamente reviven. y eso no agrada. recomendado.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Sigue de mejor manera a la Pelicula que su antescensor. pero fracasa en intentos de mejorar las mecanicas. Hay juegos mucho mejores en todos esos aspectos en Ps1. Graficos malos, musica nula casi. Con Imothep es injugable. Se rescata que tiene un par de buenas ideas pero nada mas.… Expand

    While it looks and sounds good and is a solid-playing game, it is not without a few annoying quirks that pop up at moments when you least need or want them. The addition of being able to play as a villain is a welcome change.

    It’s not awful, and is in fact a solid platform game, but it can be annoying, and even worse, pretty boring at times.

    Through unresponsive controls, poorly designed worlds, and atrocious animations, it would seem this title was created with the specific purpose of torturing those who play. [Jan 2002, p.83]
