Luxor is a distinctly Zuma-like game, replacing the Aztec theme of the famous marble shooter with an Egyptian theme. Symbols we all recognize as Western interpretation of Egyptian symbolism like the eye of Horus, pyramids, the dog head of Anubis, the ankh and scarab beetles. Music in the background is faintly reminiscent of Hollywood movies with loud orchestra strikes and the abrupt chorus of voices signifying something sinister. Boards are standard marble shooter style mazes with a pyramid at the end where marbles run off the board. In addition to setting up strategic combinations for bigger points, Luxor tosses power-ups block breaker style. Sixty minutes of play time will have your eyes dried out from staring as you advance through increasingly complex levels.
