i just read some kid saying this game sucks, he said"i thought this was supposed to be violent". lol. this game is fun, theres one big bug i ran into where a door closes on u when u die and u cant get through, but besides that, great game. but if ur interested in a fun game (that ull only play once through) this is a good choice.(using my moms account)

This is a brilliant little game. Although little-known, any gamer who likes good story and imaginative world-design should pick this up. I love it, my daughter loves it - you will too...

Fun and bugs

It's a very good game, easy, good looking and good enough play. It's worth the very low price. Only two things aren't fun in this game, you can't skip dialogue and a few bugs that sometimes make you start over a level (black screen and platform that aren't there)

This game sucks!!!

I thought this game would be good when my friend showed it to me but i was wrong! This game is supposed to be violent but most of the game is trying to figure out where to go.Everyone says that this game is really good but believe me it stinks.

Dont pass this one up!!!

Best graphics of any game out there. Smooth gameplay. Easy to control characters. As with any great game you always feel like it was short, you just want it to continue. Some tough puzzles to solve. Several optional skill challenges that are difficult but not impossible. Great storyline. Replay potential. This game will leave you wanting more.

4.5, really--- They need voices!

This is a great game. It is easy enough to keep me interseted and hard enough to be a challange. I'm good at tetris, sonic, and this game.
You play Sphynx (he has a tail!) and Tut (who eventually gets turned into a mummy). The story line is still developing but evidently the Solar Disks were able to transport people to other locations (worlds?).
Sphynx's mission isn't exactly clear at first, except to get Osiris'(good god of the dead) sword and that's when Horus (Osiris' child in myth but i don't think they are using him as such here)gets lost. You then have to find your was back through the portals to Heliopolis (an actual place) and end up saving Tut by interupting an evil-ish ceremony. Your new mission is to recover the canopic jars (hold the organs of the deceased). oh yeah, and Tut's brother who killed him, Akenaten, well, he's really this vampyrish looking guy who hasn't been named so far. I hope he isn't Set because thats not what Set looks like...
There are lots of little puzzles and what not throughout the game and its fun, but they need voices. Its all in subtitles but if you're lucky, the character might make some kind on noise when you hit the the button to talk.

Great game!!

Visuals are great, and it is a lot of fun to play. It involves problem solving as well as fighting, and is just an all-around great game.

This game is awesome.

this game has amazing graphics and a good story line. it is not too hard but not to easy and keeps your mind challenged throughout. the only problem i had with sphinx and the cursed mummy is that there is no voice overs and you have to read every thing. overall its a solid action adventure game took me about 16 hours not including attempts that i never saved.

4.5 stars....great game!

This game is fantastic!

The graphics are gorgeuos, and gameplay is a lot of fun. I could not put my controller down!

Its one of those games that makes you think the entire way, solving puzzles, how to beat the boss monsters. The puzzles are not too hard, not too easy....just hard enough to make it fun. I only needed internet help for 2 puzzles.

Played at least 30-40 hours in the end.

A must have.

Very fun game

This is a very fun game:) You can control both Sphynx and the Mummy. U use the mummy if you want to rely on stealth and puzzle solving.

So whats the point in Sphynx???!!! I don't know

Pros
1No delays when making the game, (thank God)
2Long levels and pretty hard gameplay make it so that you are for once not wasting your money.
3Good story
4Lots of different moves, and puzzles and monsters so you don't get tired of the same moves, monsters,(etc)
5EXTREMELY FUN GAME

Cons
1No dialogue
2You cant save your game unless you approach a saving statue (sometimes their isn't a saving statue for the entirety of the level:(
3If you want to start the game over, you cant skip all the dialogue and talking

Overall, a fun game.
