Ancient Egyptian themes seem to be the hottest trend in casual games lately, with the Luxor franchise as official poster boy. The game development team at Reflexive recently joined the trend with the release of tile game, Mosaic: Tomb of Mystery. Reflexive is typically known for licensing games rather than creating them, but when they make something it always looks amazing. Like Wik before it, Mosaic is the most visually appealing game in its class, with an attention to detail usually reserved for console games. Wik went on to be released for the Xbox 360 arcade and I imagine Mosaic: Tomb of Mystery will wind up there as well. In the meantime, you can play Mosaic: Tomb of Mystery on your desktop, with all the permutations of the traditional tile puzzle game ratcheted up a notch with outstanding visualizations and clever bonuses. Sixty minutes of game play gets you started.
