About The Awakening of Mummies


Using your puzzle-solving skills, guide all mummies through various chambers full of traps to finally set them free from the evil Pharaoh Cléo.

How to help these Mummies escape:



  • Control all the Mummies together, that is, by moving them in a certain direction, they all will too.
  • Make sure that each mummy takes the corresponding staff before going to the Totem of the same color, as this is the only way the Portal will open.
  • Take care with:

  • Holes: It is death for sure.
  • Spears: It is not good to be pricked!
  • Keep an eye:
    • Broken Floor: Nothing can happen, but be careful!
    • Magic Mist: Get the crown, otherwise the cumin will be uncertain and the end almost certain.
    • Mud: She will delay you, but it can help you.

  • COMPATIBLE WITH THE NEW TILT FIVE ™ AUGMENTED REALITY SYSTEM!



    For the Tilt Five™ system, modifications designed to improve immersion in the game have been added, including:
    • Increased intensity and height of particle effects;
    • Positioning the scenery below the board, giving the feeling of playing inside a real chamber of an Egyptian pyramid;
    • Use the Wand to control mummies, allowing the player to select the direction and the mummies will move according to the player's vision.

    This is an excellent game!!! I read one review which stated that this game was too easy, that maybe a four year old would like it. I would have totally agreed with this reviewer if I had stopped playing after 12 minutes as they had. Actually, I've never played a game that ramped up in difficulty so quickly. The fact that there are only 30 levels and yet only around 5% of all players have completed these levels attests to its challenge. Another reviewer said there was no mouse control, yet holding both mouse buttons down simultaneously allows you very fine control of the playing angle. I completely agreed with their statement that the movement controls were really awkward. But I was eventually comfortable using the Q W & E keys when I oriented the screen with the mouse to the mummies moving forward. This game had some very clever levels with great game mechanics. Although frustrating at times, it was also very entertaining and rewarding when you free the mummies. Kudos to the dev!!! Note to devs: It would be great if you added one more achievement for completing all of the other achievements. This achievement would be quite a challenge!

    Only if you're into hard puzzles and don't mind spending time figuring things out. It's unique and interesting having to move multiple characters at the same time. Fun but challenging.

    Really enjoyed. Very nice game, progression is smooth and pleasant, being easy to start and see yourself still playing through advanced levels after a few hours. Beautiful graphics.

    An interesting concept, but an abysmal game. All is clumsy, so you are more watching than playing. Waste of time.

    The Awakening of Mummies is a puzzle-focused adventure game developed and published by Virtual Arts Studio. Drawing inspiration from classic logic-based games, it places players inside an ancient pyramid where a group of awakened mummies must navigate a variety of dangerous chambers in an effort to escape the control of the tyrannical Pharaoh Cléo. While its premise is simple, the game successfully transforms that concept into a progressively challenging experience that rewards careful planning and problem-solving. The core gameplay revolves around guiding mummies through maze-like stages filled with hazards, traps, switches, and environmental obstacles. Each level functions as a self-contained puzzle that requires players to think several moves ahead. Success rarely comes from quick reflexes; instead, the game emphasizes observation, experimentation, and strategic movement. As new mechanics are introduced, the puzzles become increasingly layered, encouraging players to approach every stage with patience and creativity. One of the game's strengths is its steady progression. Early levels act as tutorials that introduce fundamental mechanics without overwhelming the player. As the …
