Youll play as the main characters of the movie Rick OConnell and Imhotep.While both characters have similar controls their moves, inventory, and stages are unique.Rick tends to stick to guns and explosives, while Imhotep wields blades and magic.The ultimate goal is to get to reach the end-boss of both the game and movie its based off of: The Scorpion King.
![]() The Mummy Returns Pc Game Movie Rick OConnellHaving two different gameplay routes is great because it not only provides replay value, it also gives players the chance to experience the perspective from both the protagonist (Rick) and antagonist (Imhotep). Unfortunately, The Mummy Returns does little to push the needle the other way. While the character models are certainly passable, none of the voices of the actors from the movie (Brendan Fraser, Rachel Weisz, Arnold Vosloo) or voice actors from the cartoon series (John Schneider, Grey DeLisle, Jim Cummings) can be found. It tries a bit too hard to play off the characteristics of the protagonists from the movies and just doesnt quite hit the mark, or anywhere close for that matter. The controls are very responsive and easy enough to understand from the start. The movement controls may annoy some players since they are relative to the direction the camera is facing. Its not a complete chore to control this, but it can cause some accidental movements that lead to your death. Another issue you may run into is with actions such as jumping or climbing, which can only be done when the button prompt appears. The ability to jump all the time would have been great as a dodge tactic. Furthermore, there is no ability to choose your target when shooting or using a spell. This means youll often end up targeting an enemy you didnt mean to. You may face a boss in some stages, but I didnt find them to be very challenging. One boss just continued to use the same move while I just strafed left and right spamming my pistols until he was defeated. Once other annoyance is that I found myself backtracking through stages for keys I might have missed, which can be a chore if enemies respawned already. Still, the gameplay is reminiscent of a C-list Tomb Raider game, so if you enjoy those games along with The Mummy franchise, this might be up your alley.
