A long time ago, an evil spirit known as Mumm'hotep sank the land of Egypt into eternal darkness. A deadly curse was spread across the once peaceful civilisation. The Gods had to send one man to deal with this threat, the warrior of the sand... Anubis. The player is armed with an arsenal consisting of the scepter of Ra and the Kanopic bombs of fury, with this, Anubis sets off to save Egypt once and for all! In this game, the player will have to face off with legions of evil enemies across nine playable levels of gameplay. The player controls Anubis from a third-person perspective through levels with platform puzzles and enemies that are taken out by swinging his staff or locking on to them and shooting energy balls. In each level Anubis needs to find eight pyramids that open up the portal to end the stage. Contrary to the title, this is not the sequel to an earlier game.

I enjoy bad games, I can sit down and play WWII Aces for Wii for 2 hours straight. But there is something about this game that is TRULY bad. It's not an experience I would with upon anyone. The one piece of music they could write playes the entire game. The character moves at break-neck speeds for some reason. To attack enemies you practically have to be half way up their rectum. You HAVE to use motion controls to attack and they only register a QUARTER of the time you swing. Jumping requires a doctorate in theoretical physics and Advanced Calculus. There is just not a single redeeming factor to this game OTHER THAN the box art. I think the box art is full of character, is well illustrated, and is generally a pretty good way to market the game. It's a shame that the art was wasted on such a steaming coiler of a game.
