Riddle of the Sphinx™ is previewed on AdventureGamer.com
[excerpt] “My first impression when I first saw a screenshot of the game was simply “Wow, this game looks absolutely stunning!” Omni warns visitors on their website that the pictures are not photos, but actual in-game screenshots. They’ve even copied the Pyramids’ surface features and imperfections precisely, except for the graffiti currently defacing the Great Pyramid that was intentionally omitted (wouldn’t that be going a bit too far?). The real wonder comes when you see the game in action, the graphics flow smoothly and often immerse the player so much, that you actually feel that you are in Egypt.”
