    It all falls down because it's just not fun to play in any way, shape or form. [Oct 2008, p.99]

    The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor isn't without its charms, but it's hard to believe that the younger target audience will wade through the difficulty spikes to see the convoluted narrative to its conclusion.
  3. With frustrating gameplay, a very short and linear experience, and no multiplayer or unlockable modes/levels to speak of, TotDE gives players no reason to keep playing.
  4. While the game has a decent foundation it is lacking the polish that would have made this game at least fun. Avoid this game at all costs.

    It's an infuriatingly unbalanced, unpolished and underwhelming experience that nobody -- not even fans of the movies -- should spend money on.
  7. The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor has all the right elements, yet it still manages to do everything wrong.
