Abu Simbel Profanation
Year of Release
1985The Advertising Blurb
Another game from Dinamic in Spain. Cast as Johnny Jones, an explorer in the mould of Indigo Jones, you have fallen foul of a pharaoh's curse. The only way to escape the dire effects of the spell is to penetrate the tomb of Abu Simbel, and reach the mortuary chamber. A tricky game to play indeed - you'll need every one of the ten lives supplied.

Crash 78%Review:
An unremarkable platform game that suffers from the usual requirements for pixel perfect timing when negotiating hazards.This game shows that the platform genre was already tired and clichéd back in 1985. Altogether, a poor game that has no addictive qualities at all.
