About the game

It plays like Pharaoh's Tomb: each level is one screen, and getting to the exit takes careful jumps and good timing.

It is a snapshot of Apogee just before its bigger hits, built in simple CGA graphics.

History

Created by George Broussard and published by Apogee in 1991 as the sequel to Pharaoh's Tomb.
