How it feels

You fling colored spheres at a moving chain in a fast-paced, colorful, arcadey puzzle hunt through themed ancient-world levels.

What players say

Players consider this the best Luxor game, praising the map travel, boss fights, and upgradeable power-ups. A controversial chasing mechanic and the requirement to find canopic jars to finish the campaign frustrates some. Reviews note the levels repeat often and the game is still played for speedruns.
