Description

Welcome to the mystical land of Ancient Egypt! One day, you find yourself lost within a mysterious temple, when you come across a goddess incarnated as a jewel. Your job is to restore the goddess's power by breaking the seals found throughout the temple.

To break a seal, you must match together all of the idols within it. This is done by moving your jewel onto arrow tiles, which shift your row or column in the given direction (and the idols along with it). Once you match up all the idols in a level, the game is over.

Controls

  • D-PAD: Moves your jewel UP, DOWN, LEFT, or RIGHT.
  • Z/C/N: Lets you choose a magic spell to use. Use LEFT and RIGHT to choose between them, and X/V/M to confirm. Use Z/C/N to go back.
  • X/V/M: Lets you enter a level on the world map.
  • P/Enter: Pauses the game. On the world map, this tells you a password (just in case!). In a level, this gives you the options to restart the level or give up.

What keys do you use, in order to play this game on PC?

I wasn't able to get to actually PLAYING the Game

...Because of the confusion I was having.

I would just be there... Stuck at the start menu, like some noob. :P

X/V/M to bring up the options and confirm an option, Z/C/N to to go back. Arrow keys move your cursor.

This was a fantastic little puzzler and had far more content than I was expecting! I spent around two hours getting through this on the highest difficulty setting.

Sweet, you beat it on the hardest difficulty! That takes some dedication, I'm glad you were able to see the true ending so quickly!
