Mummy Land is a platform game in which you play a mummy trying to get out of the pyramid it was buried in. Each level is a route to the exit, with treasure and power-ups worth detouring for and a steady supply of traps that are not.
It is a more considered platformer than most browser entries in the genre. Alongside the jumping there are puzzles to work through, and multiple difficulty levels mean you can set the challenge where you want it rather than taking whatever the game hands you.
How to Play Mummy Land
Guide the mummy through each level towards the exit, jumping gaps and avoiding the traps built into the pyramid. Treasure adds to your score and power-ups help you survive, so a thorough run is usually worth more than a fast one.
The puzzle elements are what stop it from being a pure reflex game. Some routes need you to work out the order to do things in rather than simply execute a jump, which is where the difficulty settings earn their place. A harder setting gives you less margin for a wrong answer.
Controls
- Move: arrow keys or A and D.
- Jump: Up arrow, W, or the spacebar.
- Touch: on-screen controls on mobile.
- Difficulty: chosen from the menu before you start.
Tips and Tricks
- Pick up power-ups before attempting a section that has already killed you. They exist precisely for those bits.
- Look before you leap into darkness. Traps are frequently placed just past a blind drop.
- Treasure is optional. If a chest sits behind a trap you cannot read, leave it and come back with a power-up.
- Start on a lower difficulty to learn the level layouts, then replay for score.
- When a puzzle section stalls you, check what you have walked past rather than what is ahead. The answer is usually behind you.
Who This Game Is For
This suits players who want a platformer with a bit more thinking in it than a straight runner, and the difficulty settings make it flexible enough for a range of skill levels.
Anyone hoping for a fast, twitchy platformer may find the puzzle sections slow it down. That mix is deliberate.
