The Mummy

About

The Mummy for Game Boy Advance casts you as the O'Connell family, Rick, Evy, and Alex, as they trek through Egyptian tombs and desert outposts in the 1930s. The game switches between platforming and top-down combat, letting you swap between characters mid-level to handle different challenges. Rick handles brute-force fights, Evy disarms traps, and Alex scampers up walls to avoid hazards. You’ll face off against mummies, cultists, and the sinister Imhotep in levels that mix puzzle-solving with timing-based platforming. The game’s charm comes from its colorful 32-bit visuals and tight control scheme. While the story sticks to the basic beats of the 2001 film, the challenge lies in mastering jump timing and resource management. With 15 levels and hidden relics to collect, it’s a brisk but replayable adventure. Though over two decades old, it holds up as a polished handheld port of its era’s blockbuster action-mystery formula.
