Horus: Desert Survivor

Very interesting game for sure. Had no problems with it so it gets a positive from me!

Horus: Desert Survivor pros: //fast game with modern day graphics with easy controls that moves from location A to B to C and so on cons: //some difficult battles //some overpowered enemies //could use more powerups and loot //sometimes too many enemies constantly spawn //enemy run speed is too fast and you can't outrun the enemies //pickup range is too short and you don't pick loot up even when you are right by them //sometimes too many enemies fill the screen and make it difficult to evade //single weapon restrictions that take too long to equip more weapons //upgrades are a grindfest and you might not even get one after many plays //repetitive //good game Personal Suggested Purchase Price: Free To Play extra notes: //fight against ancient mummies and desert threats //choose a weapon card and then enhance it //text choice, treasure, and shop encounters //once you realize that your choices don't matter and you aren't getting a single upgrade your game is over
