"Worth it for the Land of ISIS!! (Breathtakingly Beautiful!)", O.K. I am too dumb to play without a copy of the walkthrough...so I saved a bit of time there. I had been impressed by a "night scene" in Egypt 2, but when I made it to the "Night Scene" in the Kingdom of ISIS...I was actually blown away by the breathtaking BEAUTY ....I actually closed the game just so I could revisit that Beautiful Island for about 3 days and whenever I has a minute I just "sat" there and looked up at the sky!
The graphics are MUCH better than Egypt 2, and the characters much less cartoonish. The story line is O.K.the puzzles not too hard....I sometimes asked myself "Is this the kind of thing that other adults are REALLY spending time on??"....but then I find I just HAVE to do a detour to sit by the pool at the Temple, or admire the Land of Isis, and I think "WOW!"...how do they PUT all this Dream stuff onto a little bitty disc?

"Too much fun.", I had a great time with this game! The king's fate is in your hand and you have to find the answer fast. The game brings a lot of information about the ancient Egypt and their culture what I thought was useful to play better. And you travel all over try to find answers by solving puzzles. The puzzles are too much fun! Very simple story but I enjoyed every minute of it. If you liked adventure games with puzzles that takes a little more time to solve, this is the one.

"Eqyptian Prophecy", This was a good game. Not as good as some, but worth my time.

"Egyptian Prophecy Bites the Dust", Perhaps my expectations were too high but I was rather disappointed by this depthless puzzle game. The game is advertised as an adventure in Egypt but it is possible to complete this game in only a matter of hours. The game consists of figuring out a few puzzles, and interacting only with only designated characters. Exploration is also limited and once you have finished the puzzle, there is no point in playing again.

"nothing too bad about it, but nothing too good", Every so often I get the urge to try an adventure game, and this time the result was ... satisfactory.

The game was easier than most, which isn't necessarily a bad thing. Too often, game puzzles are more hard than fun. The bigger flaw was that the game was highly linear. The player is led step-by-step through a story with no real opportunity to affect it. Solve a puzzle, go to the next puzzle. Lather, Rinse Repeat. There were no "game-level" puzzles that required you to solve other puzzles for clues -- everything was at most "chapter-level", and typically it was just individual puzzles that you solved and then forgot about when you reached the next one.

Even when it was obvious that one of the characters Maya trusted was betraying her, there was nothing to do about it. You had to continue along the script. That does help prevent annoying dead ends, but it also takes away the feel of immersion into a different world.

All of this would be forgiveable if the story were exciting, but it really is nothing but a series of puzzles. If that's what you want, it's fine (as long as you don't expect them to be too complex).

Replayability interest is pretty much nonexistent.

"A Mystery Lies Waiting to be Uncovered", From the game booklet: "The Story: At the age of 60, Ramses II, Pharoah is dying and does not wish to perish renouncing his magnificent kingdom. The supreme Egyptian god Amun-Re has agreed to grant him health and prolong his reign...but under the condition that Ramses reconstruct Amun-Re's temple, erecting the most colossal obelisk ever constructed by man, making his temple the most splendid humanity has ever seen."

From the game booklet: "Objective: Suspicious accidents have been occurring at the worksite of the Temple of Amun-Re. As Maya, a young woman skilled as a magician and beloved of the gods, you are sent by Pharaoh to investigate and to ensure that the work is successfully completed. Your mission is connected to the fate of Egypt. Failure will lead to Pharaoh's death and the country's ruin."

I was concerned when the manual said "We suggest that you save your game often." I had no problems with the game crashing, so I must assume they were trying to save the player the frustration of replaying part of a scene if they should die.

I found the game play quite enjoyable. The graphics and movies are nicely done and the dialogs were interesting. Objects were relatively easy to find, and sometimes Maya would even hint "This might be useful later". I sometimes get dizzy with 3D worlds where the mouse movements can get you spinning in multiple directions, but didnt have any trouble with this game.

The puzzles involved challenges such as aligning tumblers in a lock to open a chest; gathering ingredients/objects to build another item; rearranging tiles to form an image; placing objects into the correct location; answering trivia questions; and countering black magic spells during a sorceress duel. The final puzzle was by far the most challenging: sort of a chess/checkers board layout with an evil snake. I finally had to get help for that one on the internet .. the hints given in the game were good but my strategy would never have allowed me to win.

Overall, I enjoyed the game. Parents should know that the casting of spells is involved, and that various Egyptian mythological gods are worshipped by the main character and supporting characters throughout the game.

"Simply Wonderful! Amazing graphics and smooth game play!", I loved this game! I am interested in the Bible and egyptology, and thought this game worth trying. I couldn't stop playing it. It's fast pace and not too hard a game. You can always find solutions on the net. Outstanding graphics and animation! It's even educational. Bravo AdventureGames! The only thing I got tired of was going back and forth to the same "lands". But non the less, what can you expect in a dessert... It's definately worth buying and has a low rating--E for everyone...so it appeals to all ages. Just to let you know, I'm 21 and was able to complete the game in about a day and a half... with lots of breaks of course.

"VERY PLEASANT SURPRISE", I really didn't know what to expect, so my expectations weren't too high to begin with. However, the whole game was really a pleasant surprise. It was far above the "norm" in plot, the graphics were pretty good in most places and extremely good and imaginative in others (The Book of the Dead Part was really outstanding.) I'm no expert in Egyptology by a long way, but I do know a bit, so the fact that they took the time to do SOME homework was really appreciated, and for me, made the game that much more enjoyable.

This is a first-person game, with appropriate "cut-scenes", and although most of the characters were not much above standard-woodenish, I did find the heroine, Maya, quite the most engaging since Kate Walker of Syberia. This sort of stuff matters to me and adds a lot to the enjoyability of the game. Why I don't mind spending my money as much as I might do otherwise with this.

The features such as "save", "load", etc., were VERY satisfactory. I ABSOLUTELY HATE GAMES WHERE SAVING ISN'T GENUINELY POSSIBLE! (HINT TO OTHER MAKERS!)

Game played flawlessly, but for some cut/glitches that I've come to expect from new games. DEFINITELY not a major issue here, as the only problems were when I tried to save, and game "blacked out". Overcomeable!

All in all, I would give game 5 stars in both categories, except I'm hyper picky. The concept, given that I own 3 games w/ an "egyptian theme" (I get desperate), was truly 5 stars in imagination. Well worth the price by all means!

"Good fun, a very likable game overall", This game took me by surprise. I expected a mediocre game, one of many that has Egypt as a background. But I was wrong all the way - this game is extremely likable.
First of all, the puzzels are solid, good fun. Some inventorybased, some 'lock' puzzels, some deducing, some 'if you get this for me I'll give you what you need' type, overall, the puzzles where of a high standard, much higher than the two prequels to this game. None of the puzzels are difficult, (some are on the easy side) but they required a bit of thinking and deducing. There's some new wine in old bags, and there's some real new stuff, but never, never did it feel tedious or out of the blue. I liked the way the puzzles where integrated in the story, it all seemed very logical.
The cutscenes are marvellous, with lots of attention to detail and atmosphere. They serve their purpose very well, and really do connect the story.
You will visit four or five locations, none of them big - actuallly quite small. For some, this would be a dissapointment, for me it was just right. I have got a little bit tired of the endless clickings-fests in some games (Riven springs to mind) and wandering around for ages till you're back at the same spot. No such things in this game.
The story is quite good. Not very complicated (and not all that surprising either) but, hey, its a nice story.
Graphics are okay, not spectacular, but enough to make you enjoy the landscapes and temples and such. There's lot of attention to detail (such as cartouches, bas-reliefs and such) and even the water is done beautifully.
There are some very minor bugs. At some point your cursor should change into an 'action' cursor af manipulating amn object, but refuses to do so. The remedy is easy: you leave the scene, come back and it works fine, nothing to worry about. This will happen twice or thrice.
For a very experience adventuregamer (as I am) it a nice, little escape from the mindboggling games such as Schizm. For the novel gamer, it's a perfect introduction to the genre. Experienced gamers will finish the game in 10 hours or even less. But why hurry?
As said, this game was of a much higher quality than I exepected (becasue it has not been launched as a blockbuster and does not cost a blockbusting price), and it was just a load of fun.


"Decent little game", When you buy a low-cost Dreamcatcher game, you take your chances - there are some real stinkers out there.
However, this isn't one of them.
It's a relatively small, but very enjoyable, puzzle-based adventure game. The cut scenes are nicely animated, there's a minimum of pixel-hunting, and the puzzles are varied (if a tad simple), and for the most part logical and in-scene.
It isn't Syberia, but it's still good value for money.
