Papyrus Underworld

Egyptian Hieroglyph Platform Game. Tap and Hop like Imhotep.

I have always loved the graphic design and craftsmanship of Egyptian hieroglyphs and hand painted papyrus. Because hieroglyphics are so linear, they already look like a platform game to me. I thought it would be cool to make an Egyptian themed game.

The ancient Egyptians mummified and preserved their bodies because they believed they would one day live again. I did what I could to return their Ka, and breathe life back into these ancient characters so they can rise up, run, dance, and frolic again. All you have to do is play the game to give them another chance to live in this world. It’s mind blowing to think they knew this day was coming, thousands and thousands of years ago. Amazing!

The game play of Papyrus Underworld is simple enough. Tap and Double Tap to hop over obstacles so the Goddess Isis can lead Queen Nefertari to her never ending banquet in Eternity.

First you must find the secret passage from the Temple into the Underworld. Once there, collect 10,000 Ankh to unlock the Toom of Doom Bonus Level, and from there find your way to Eternity where the party never ends.
