The Mummy Demastered

It's hard to recommend this title as it does things a typical metroidvania doesn't. Wayforward usually makes great games but they seem to cash in on The Mummy franchise but made little to no story to it. As you play a non-nameless solider in the game. Control, sound, and music are all spot on. The retro vibes are there. You can even fling grenades upwards! Two things really hurt this game: No healing stations at save points. You have to grind your health to full. The game took me roughly 6 hours to complete (it honestly felt longer), but with grinding for health - that ate alone 45 minutes of game time. The death mechantic could be a deal breaker for some, as when you die, similar to hollow knight, you gotta go kill your husk to get certain things that. But in this? You have to get EVERYTHING back and your clone has goodies too. Some platforms and enemies that have the zoomies can frustrate some players as well. Overall though, the game isn't that hard and bosses were not super tough as your character overall getting killed is unlikely, even if you're bad at platformers or this genre. Even the escape sequence made no sense - and field of visions is bad and no timer when trying to escape. Still medicore game and doesn't feel like The Mummy in any shape or form. Get it on sale if you can but there are better metroidvanias out there. 4 / 10

Great MV. At 1st it seem mid but after 2nd biome,bosses,hidden items. The charm of it came together. I came into it for the achievements since ppl struggled w last 3.

Magnificent Metroidvania! Very satisfying progression. Not too heavy on backtracking. The relics are really fun too!

没有地图标记系统，后期收集道具很费劲

Amazing! It caught me off guard how well designed this game is. A must play.

NÃO COMPRA NA CARA, O JOGO É UMA COPIA MAL FEITA DE METROID, SÓ MUDA MESMO AS SKINS

I heard some really good things about this game. Looking at screenshots, the pixel art looks amazing. The soundtrack is even great, I love looking at and listening to this game. The big problem is how much of a chore it feels like to play. There are entirely way too many enemies that move so quickly, you can't even hit them half the time. You need a powered up weapon if you plan on taking many of them out the first time you see them as they fly on and off the screen. The huge problem with this is how much is going on the screen and how much platforming you have. The game is incredibly punishing in the sense that you will be jumping back and forth on the same platform to avoid enemies since you can't kill them quickly enough. If you're lucky, you might be able to hit them a couple times as they fly across the screen way too quickly to aim, you mostly spam in their general direction. You go hit? Too bad, the knock back will push you off the tiny platform you have to wait to rise and you start your journey through the room all over again. I've had that happen entirely way too many times from enemies that come at you so quickly from an angle that you can't even aim at that I got so frustrated I just quit. If I had a chance at killing these enemies, fine, I'd deal with them that way. But since you can only aim in 8 directions, you better hope an enemy is coming from one in order to hit them. Many of them can home attacks in you but you can't do it back to them. It's just needlessly difficult. Oddly enough, the first boss is really big so it's easy to hit. The boss fight was actually fun while the whole journey to the boss felt like a test of patience rather than skill. Furthermore, if you die, you lose all your gear and have to return with just your starter gun from the last save point. Was it a pain to reach that far before you died? Of course it was! Well guess what? Now you get to do it again with even worse gear than before and hope you don't die along the way. Don't let the great art style fool you. The game looks great with a great soundtrack, but playing it is just not fun.
