About Cleo's Lost Idols
Your workers are, let’s be honest, a bit dumb – they forget where to go, get themselves burnt, drowned or even catapulted off the edge of the world! It’s your job to show them how to fulfil the Cleopatra’s wishes; keep on sending more of the little fellas until they do. Alternatively just smite them down with fire and lightning! It’s your management style, so your choice! The fate of the workers, their antics and even avoiding the clutches of Sobek the Crocodile God are all there to make us laugh.
Cleo’s Lost Idols has a deeply ingrained video mechanic, enabling you to make, edit, share and watch gameplay videos, right within the game; no video expertise required! Upload your videos to YouTube, get them liked, and watch yourself climb the rankings in the game’s video leaderboard. Enjoy other people’s clips too. Watch their workers fail to complete their orders in spectacular fashion, see their cunning solutions to getting the statue pieces restored, speed-run the levels or getting that last coin you didn’t even know existed.
Cleo’s Lost Idols is a strategy game about monumental construction in Ancient Egypt; not so much a pyramid scheme as an oasis of streaming fun as wide as the Nile!

What Steam players say
Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.
Cleo's Lost Idols receives mixed feedback, with players praising it as an engaging puzzle game with stylish graphics and atmospheric settings suitable for short gaming sessions. However, the game faces significant criticism for aggressive monetization practices, including locked achievements behind mandatory DLC purchases, poor controls, buggy gameplay, and a mobile app-like UI that detracts from the experience, making it a poor choice especially for achievement hunters.
"Cleo's Lost Idols" is a mobile app looking bit of a cash grab... certainly not free, anyway. It's a convoluted premise, you basically have to get a bunch of workers to move stuff around a low poly map in just the right way to collect all the coins so you can unlock more levels, just like a mobile app. To play the game, as best I could work out, you tap on your iPhone screen to make workers move around and pick up and move idol pieces to make Cleopatra that speaks Simlish babble happy. This is not at all free, and disgustingly, the developers locked achievements behind crap DLC that you have to buy. This is never acceptable. This mobile app has low poly mobile app looking graphics, terrible sound design, and a really poor mobile app like UI. It fails pretty much every technical implementation standard you would expect from a PC game. On pricing and value for gamers, this isn't really free as you're expected to pay up more money to unlock content/DLC so you can keep playing. This is some nasty, predatory pricing and PC gamers don't like it. Yep, the developer has their hand out for $7.50 USD worth of DLC for this. You can get entire AAA games for that when they're on sale…2 found this helpful
Cleo’s Lost Idols takes Ancient Egypt and transforms it into a playful physics-driven playground where construction, puzzle solving, and complete disorder regularly collide. Developed by Tomb Team and published by Chilled Mouse, the game approaches its historical setting with comedy rather than realism. Cleopatra’s missing statue pieces provide the basic motivation for the adventure, but the real attraction comes from attempting to control a workforce that has an impressive talent for getting itself into trouble. The result is a lighthearted combination of strategy, environmental puzzles, simulation, and slapstick entertainment. Across more than 20 levels, the player is responsible for directing workers through increasingly hazardous environments while recovering pieces of Cleopatra’s statues. These workers are far from dependable. They can wander into traps, fall victim to environmental dangers, or otherwise turn a sensible plan into a spectacular failure. Instead of feeling like a conventional management game where commands are followed with mechanical precision, the experience encourages constant adjustment. Watching a carefully organized operation deteriorate into chaos is oft…1 found this helpful
I don't recommend Cleo's Lost Idols because the control is terrible, the game play is silly and there are locked features which require you to pay money.1 found this helpful
Игра «Cleo's Lost Idols» — увлекательная головоломка с элементами приключений. Главная героиня, археолог Клео, ищет древние идолы, разгадывая загадки и преодолевая препятствия. Графика стильная, с яркими цветами и атмосферными локациями. Геймплей логичный, но некоторые уровни требуют времени на освоение механики. Звуковое сопровождение приятное, добавляющее напряжённости. Минус — ограниченное количество уровней и повторяющиеся задания. Подойдёт тем, кто любит интеллектуальные задачи и исторические мотивы. Рекомендую для коротких, но насыщенных игровых сессий.

Keeps on advertising DLC, Bugged achievements and you have to buy some of the DLC to even get to 100%. I would recommend not even adding this game to your profile if you are an achievement hunter. Game is extremely buggy and not fun at all.
