Title: "The Mummy" for Game Boy Color
Post by: Marty Belmont on August 05, 2008, 05:21:51 PM

in light of the worthless sequel coming out,

has anybody played this game? it was made by Konami and I'm pretty sure some Castlevania Team members had a hand in it.

I'm Curious as to what Castlevania Fans think of it.

I think it does a good job of convaying the atmosphere of plundering Hamunaptra, I also like the fact that it focuses on puzzles instead of mindless button mashing like so many other Movie based games of the 2000s

and the original music (as the game also includes some of Jerry Goldsmith's actual compositions from the movie) is pretty good, too. some of the tracks remind me of Castlevania IV's "Castle Courtyard" and "Room of Close associates", while other tracks invoke a nice feeling of nostalgia for all those globetrotting 80's cartoons (Ducktales, Inspector Gadget) that I loved as a kid.
