About
Embark on the tour of a lifetime!
Pile in the tour van for an expedition to a forgotten pyramid, long lost to time. Take pictures and unearth ancient relics, all while exploring decrepit tombs, arid wastelands, opulent temples, and a slew of other unique locations. But be warned – the mummies inhabiting these locales won’t be happy entertaining visitors…
Run From Mummies is a top-down 2D action adventure for one-to-four tourists. Delve deep into the unknown with nothing but your wits and trusty camera. Use flash photography to stun mummies, fend off skittering scarabs, and uncover ancient plots spanning thousands of years. Oh—and make it out alive.
