LUXOR: Quest for the Afterlife for Pc

The price is appropriate, because this game really doesn't live up to its predecessors. I expected that the end adventure would be similar to the previous iterations of this app: difficult to the point of ripping my hair out as I tried to beat it. Instead, the final run is boring and simple. To put it in persepective, the so-called "insane" level of this app: Quest for the Afterlife (LQA) is about as stressful as the early to mid-stages of the Normal level in this app 2. The tracks are easy to beat, especially after upgrading the powerups in the "Store." Worse still, after all the upgrades have been purchased, the coin collection remains when the player completes a level (Easy, Normal, Hard, Insane), and so do the upgrades. So as you play, you keep collecting worthless coins with no way to spend them. In previous versions of this app, 50 coins translated into an extra life, which was good, because that final track could take a lot of lives before the player beat it. In this version, players don't "die" when they fail to beat a track. There's on a "Try Again" button. Sorry developers, but you really missed the ball on this one. You took out everything that made play interesting in the previous versions and left us with a boring piece of software.

I enjoy the game play very much, but there is supposed to be a progression from stage to stage leading to an ending. I have revisited each city and each area/stage several times, redone all the puzzles countlesss times, attained all the possible assets, but it simply does not progress. Some glitch does not allow me to move forward in the "story". I'll just keep going around and around until I get sick of it.

I am not much for video games, but this one is addicting. I was looking for something inexpensive that I might play more than once. I haven't been able to stop, and for $3 it was well worth the money. I feel bad for the guy who said he would not ever play it again. I think he is missing out.

I was sorely disappointed to see that this app was NOT the this app I know and love. It is more of a story/adventure than it is a game. I was very frustrated to have paid as much as I did (even at 50% off). There is no way to bypass the voices and storytelling and just play the game. I bought this game and within 5mins knew I would never play it again, it's such a letdown. On the flipside, the graphics are awesome.
