I was sad to end this wonderful game.

By Riddle of the Sphinx Testimonials, Testimonials No Comments

I was sad to end this wonderful game. I had spent many relaxing hours wandering around the Pyramid and that Island of Ra is out of this world. I HOPE you DO make more games like this one! Thanks so much for all your time and effort you put into this game, Riddle of the Sphinx. I will be doing this one over and over again.

– Jenny (from Australia)

P.S. It was a strange feeling to get an email from you yesterday morning and at the end of the day, there you were on the comp., talking to me [in] the game!!!!

Can’t tell where reality in ROTS leaves off…

By Riddle of the Sphinx Testimonials, Testimonials No Comments

If you loved Riddle of the Sphinx, and want to experience more of ancient Egypt up close and personal, without taking that long, hot expensive journey, you’ll love the Ancient Egypt show now playing at IMAX theaters. I just heard about it last night, and went right over to my local IMAX theater.

What a great show! If you loved ROTS, you’ll recognize most of those ancient sites right away, and you’ll feel like you’ve been there. You’ll “know” where all the hidden passageways and ladders and ramps are — where to find those elusive weights for the balance puzzle, how to scramble up to the top of those huge statues at Abu Simbel for the magnificent panoramic view (and an all-important clue), what’s behind (and scratched on to) the scaffold at the side of the Sphinx, and just how to get around in that maze of tunnels in the great Pyramid!

IMAX takes you to all these familiar places and more, on a screen 6 stories high and 70 feet wide. It’s well worth the time, effort and the price of admission to take a break from your computer screen for a really fantastic look at this big-screen treat!

Plus, you’ll appreciate all the more just how faithfully these landmarks were portrayed in ROTS. Truly amazing how they seamlessly melded the real ancient Egypt sites with the fanciful elements. You almost can’t tell where reality in ROTS leaves off and the imaginary takes over.

One of the most Myst-like games I’ve ever played…

By Riddle of the Sphinx Testimonials, Testimonials No Comments

I think [Riddle of the Sphinx is] one of the most Myst-like games I’ve ever played. The puzzles were integrated into the game environment, just like in Myst. There was also very little human contact. Instead of the brothers speaking to you out of books, you had the tape recorder. Not until the end of the game did you meet a live person, just as with Myst. And both games had constellations to copy.
