Saqqarah Review

Posted by Matthew snorkle256 Nolan,

Saqqarah is an interesting puzzle based game set in a large underground Egyptian tomb.  It is not just any tomb but a place where an evil god was sealed away.  Now the seal is breaking and the only way to stop him from rising to power is by completing the challenges set forth by the original gods that sealed him away.  Fear not for you will have a magical aide in your quest that will help you clear the boards as they get harder.

 

Graphics - 90%  - Clean and smooth due to no moving parts.

puzzle01You know what?  I loved these graphics, and with just cause.  They were incredibly smooth and detailed.  I never once felt like I was playing something drawn crudely or anything.  The artwork was simply fantastic as were the simple animations.  Sometime during play, I noticed that I was in the "high detail graphics" mode.  Switching to lower detail did not seem to bring the quality down much.

Sound - 90% - Clear and crisp, but nothing epic.

Just like the graphics, the sounds are clear and presentable.  The mood of this game is further set by the audio.  The Egyptian feel that the artwork provided was accentuated by the themed tones presented to my ears.  Nothing pleases me more than sound that is fitting and done well, and this does just that!
