The Egyptian Prophecy was originally released in 2004 and it shows. The animated video is a bit choppy, the gameplay is not smooth, overall it looks a bit fuzzy due to the low resolution of the graphics, and the conversation flow is a clunky. Just be prepared for all that. On the good side, it is a fairly enjoyable puzzler. The makers mixed in some real history and rituals into the game, so that is an added bonus. If you can get it on a sale, I think it would be worth picking up.

I'm not one to play Adventure games much; I'd like to play them more, but I often lack the patience. This game, however, kept me firmly firmly seated from start to finish, quite literally; before I'd realised it, I'd finished the whole game in one go. The puzzles may seem easy to someone who plays adventure games a lot, and do lack that element of obtuse adventure-game-developer-logic, but a few puzzles do require some actual knowledge of Egyptian mythology on the player's part. The ending does seem a little abrupt, and at 5 hours it may seem a little stumpy, but it keeps up a nice pace and doesn't wear out its welcome. The game doesn't look horrible for its age, and though the voice acting threw me a little at the beginning, you get used to it fairly easily. It's also nice to see that effort was made with name pronounciations, unlike most games that handle any names other than English. Definitely try it out if you're into Egypt-themed stuff; maybe if you're on the fence about advent...
I have tried everything to get this title to actually launch without the dreaded windows encountered a problem message. Ran through all the compatability settings and ini tweaks etc and nothing seems to work. Some people have had success with the compat- workaround but it seems hit and miss. Sadly I cannot recommend this title for a purchase in it's current state.
Egypt III, known as The Egyptian Prophecy in North America, is a 2004 graphic adventure game developed by Kheops Studio and published by The Adventure Company. The player must solve an array of ancient riddles that will help a dying Pharaoh survive and restore Egypt to glory. The game is the third and final game in the Egypt trilogy, following Egypt 1156 B.C. and Egypt II: The Heliopolis Prophecy. In 2010, Microïds released an adaptation of the game, split into parts, for the Apple iPhone. Plot At the age of sixty years, Pharaoh Ramesses II asks the Oracle of Ammun to extend his reign; the God accepts, at the condition that a majestic obelisk is built before the Shemu season comes. But despite initial progress, the construction suddenly stops and Pharaoh sends one of his priestess, Maya, to investigate. Development Following the 2002 bankruptcy and liquidation of Cryo Interactive,many of its key assets were purchased by DreamCatcher Interactive to form that company's new European br...
Step back into time to solve a mystery for the Pharoh as Maya. You'll love the feel as you explore this historical tale through her eyes. Have fun and buy this one to share with others!
This game is great. Many puzzles that not too easy to solve are main part of a game and there are beautiful concept arts though this game is quite old. The soundtracks are mediocre but they are quite odd because they are egyptian style. I had a lot of fun because the story of this game is awesome. One problem that really annoying me is that there always blurring vision when there come to cutscenes in game, I don't recommended this game to anyone who had seizure or migraine and I mean it seriously but if you just skip it so it's ok to play through.
Windows 11 user here. To avoid crashes to desktop simply go to the game folder, select Egypt3.exe, right click, click on Show more options, then Properties then go to Compatibility tab, and select Run in compatibility mode for Windows Vista. Press OK. Now double click on Egypt3.exe and you are good to go. No more crashes.
I admit it's my own fault but I hadn't noticed this was a 360degree game. So if you like me get really dizzy when playing such a game this is not for you. I also admit I have only played this game for half an hour but that was enough for me. Usually I like most point and click games I play but this I found really bad in the short time I struggled with dizziness. The charactors are kind of dead and you feel nothing at all for them. And the voices are also dead. I have played much older games that was much more inspiring than this and much better made. There is just no heart in it.
Unfortunately this game has not aged well, in fact I couldn't get it to play at all on my Windows 10 for incompatibility (even after trying every trick in the book from compatibility mode to going into the coding and changing the resolution, windowed mode, etc). I finally pulled out my Windows 7 computer and had no problem installing and running it on there. It's then that I found out that the game itself has some bugs and I could not get passed a certain point. Ah well, I tried.
Won't even load the game, tried several "fixes" by modding the .ini file etc, changing compatibility mode blah blah blah but still wont launch!! fix your game!!!!!
