Gameplay edit

Set in Hamunaptra, there are 15 stages. There is also a bonus stage called "Cairo". Rick O'Connell is the main game-user, and the players have to defeat enemies such as Slave Mummies and Scarab Beetles.

Reception edit

The PlayStation version received "mixed" reviews. The PC version received "generally unfavorable reviews", according to the review aggregation website Metacritic.[22][23] David Chen of NextGen said that the former version was "a lot better than we could have expected – still not great, but not at all bad".[16] In Japan, Famitsu gave the same console version a score of 27 out of 40.[8] Nintendo Power gave the Game Boy Color version a mixed review, over a month before it was released Stateside.[17]
