Inside the inventory, besides the items you pick up, are a wallet where all of the papers you steal end up and another folio of sorts where you can replay the game's cutscenes in case you missed something due to an untimely musical crescendo or a howler monkey in the same room. There are no subtitles, unfortunately. Save game slots are limited to 16 I think , but the amount proved to be more than sufficient. If you are a Dramamine junkie, be forewarned: this is one of those games where the cursor is affixed to the center of the screen and everything revolves around it.
This is not a difficult game if you are well-versed in adventuring arcana. New players might be put off by some of the nonsensical devices employed, but old hands will find themselves on familiar ground - we've all trodden it enough times in the past that for us this can be viewed as a, well, retread. Sometimes there are far too many locations that must be revisited in order to perform minute cursor-sweeping inspections for that one teeny item you've overlooked, particularly in the museum.
The graphics are passable. They look nice and are clear and well laid out. They are pretty lifeless, though. A big chunk of the game takes place on a Nile riverboat, and while you're outside looking at the water, you hear the gentle waves lapping on the sides of the boat You hear birds in the background, but you never see anything in the skies. After you finish talking to the barman, he will go back to what he was doing, and then he will just be there And that's if you're lucky. Usually there is no one at all in evidence anywhere you go.
People always talk about those lonely first-person Myst clones - this is a lonely first-person I-don't-know-what,-maybe-Wanadoo? Pharaoh's Curse is nothing more than another cookie-cutter game to fill the Cryo vacuum.
I could always go off on another rant about how "the genre is ripe for innovation and so why are we continually force-fed this kind of tripe," but I'll let my rotten egg do my talking for me. There is nothing inherently wrong with Pharaoh's Curse, it's just that it's all, and I do mean all, been done before and I was bored the whole time I was playing. How to run this game on modern Windows PC?
Contact: , done in 0. The story involves the disappearance of the Pharaoh's mummy from a museum. This game tests your investigating skills and your sense for details and observation in a fun way. You have to solve the challenging puzzles, to interact with almost every character you see, because who knows, maybe or surely he is a suspect.
I have noticed a lack of interactivity in the game, though, and also some boring moments and tasks you have to perform. The exploration of the surroundings and locations is very pleasant, due to the beautifully detailed and designed environment.
