Overview
Description

A brave young Pharaoh, turned into a scarab by the gods, must battle the chaotic god Set. Players stop colorful magical spheres by matching three or more as they travel through a maze, freeing captured deities along the way.

The game blends fast‑paced action with classic puzzle mechanics for a single‑player adventure steeped in Egyptian myth.

Join the Myth Makers as they battle the evil Sinster Rebus, who has trapped them inside eight magical Orbs of Doom. Venture through 40 brain‑busting levels across five lavish environments, using dice rolls to navigate puzzles and defeat enemies. The game blends classic puzzle solving with action‑filled platforming, offering both single‑player and split‑screen modes on the PlayStation 2, perfect for quick sessions or cooperative play.
