FEATURES

Face undead guardians in the form of mummies, large bats, monster scorpions and the mythical serpent Apophis, all with the capacity to throw death thunders or spit fire. Some of them have the ability to freeze Horus for a few seconds.

As Horus, a God, you never die, but once your ankh (i.e. breath of life) is exhausted, time shifts back to the beginning of the current stage that you face all over again.

You can fly anywhere and land anytime, passing through columns during flight, and being able to simultaneously attack with any form of thunder.

Gain powerups like thunder shield, thunder storm and thunder chain providing extra elimination capabilities.

The shield offers a special form of spiral thunder that releases instantly guardians of any level, except from the powerful serpent Apophis that requires far more strikes.

Confront guardians ranked into four, increasingly tougher, levels of darkness, distinguished by four colors: ochre, green, red and azure. The last level is immune to normal thunders and can be only eliminated using the shield.

Once eliminating all guardians in a stage, a key is revealed to open the gate and proceed to the next stage.

Can save the game anytime during gameplay, apart from automatic save being done with every stage completion. Can initiate and manage up to eight independent game sessions, switching between them anytime.

Use the menus options to live configure the camera and switch between landscape and portrait modes during gameplay.
