You have been appointed the head of an archaeological expedition to Egypt. Your party initially consists of five members. The task is to enter five levels of each pyramid, and recover form each five Royal Mummies and as much treasure as you can. Each level has been partially excavated by previous expeditions and it is up to you and your colleagues to complete the digs Unfortunately, the workers'digging has aroused Guard ians left behind by the ancient Egyptians to protect their royal tombs. The partly excavated levels are in the form of a grid made up of twenty boxes To uncover a box move your team around all four sides of the box When the boxes holding a key and the royal mummy have been uncovered you can progress to the next level.
The best way to describe Oh Mummy is as a sort of 'Pacman' variant with 'Painter' overtones. The graphics are extremely simple, reflecting the very early Spectrum original's — indeed, the whole game is simple. Fun to play but not for very long, extremely dated now and hardly worth considering. Overall AMTIX! rating: 29% |
