Ancient Egypt comes to the DS, but is this point-and-click adventure worth your money?
Then along comes Nintendos dual-screen marvel, with its ideal-for-adventures touchscreen, and the genre is rediscovered.
Unfortunately, their developers have yet to rediscover the quality that produced the epic games of the past.
Perhaps Im being unfair.
The game begins with the mischievous but likable youngster Assil in a lot of trouble.
During the party a mummy was accidentally awakened.
Its simple, but effective.
But even in the first location, Assils bedroom, the problems with this DS conversion are made clear.
Thats not to say Curse of the Scarab King is a disaster.
Overall the games fun, but the fact that it could clearly be even more fun is seriously frustrating.
