Treasures of Egypt Demo

The Ancient Egypt still holds many secrets when it comes to the civilization that lived there. The seem to have advanced at a faster rate than other civilizations from around the globe, which is why they had so many interesting inventions.

Treasures of Egypt is a match-three game in which you get to have your own adventure across the Ancient Egypt, as well as hunt for rare artifacts and interact with the nobility. In essence, the game is not very different than any other match-three flick out there, since the formula is more or less the same.

It is your duty to rescue her, as well as hunt for a variety of rare and powerful artifacts while you are at it.

To make matters more interesting, there is a timer that runs in the background while you match the tiles. It doesn’t really affect you most of the time, but depending on the time it shows at the end, your score can be multiplied a couple of times.

In the graphics department, there is nothing too flashy or memorable about the visual aspect. Everything is decorated with Egyptian symbols and the usual hieroglyphs, while the actual tiles include everything from diamonds, to snakes and cats. The music features Egyptian influences too, although it is a bit difficult to keep listening to it over long periods of time.

Even if it has its flaws and limitations, Treasures of Egypt is still a good match-three game, mainly because it works like a charm and it comes with more than enough levels to keep you happy for a long time. You also get to experience a bit of the Ancient Egyptian culture at the same time.
