The sounds are dated, but still good. It plays out well. However, the spheres shoot a little too fast with the Speed Shot power-up on. Overall, I love this game! I was so enthralled with the Original Luxor game I did not get to Amun Rising before my hour of power was up. I call it the Hour of Power wasn't there a game show that used that phrase? Even though it was an older game without all the bells and whistles of the newer games, it was old school fun. Without a doubt.
Storyline: There is none. Graphics: Considering how far back we had to go to dust the cobwebs off this game, I was impressed with how bright the colors were. This is especially necessary when the game your playing relies heavily on you breaking strings of the same colored balls. Sound: Background music was ok.
Sound effects were incredible. GamePlay: The premise of the game is to destroy strings of similarly colored balls by shooting a ball exact color at a string of 2 or more balls. For instance, if I have a red ball in my shooter, I would strive to shoot it at a string of 2 or more red balls. You need a minimum of 3 balls for them to disappear. Or explode, as the case may be. Pay close attention when the runes fall. That means you have succeeded in doing something wonderful. Also, these runes are more powerful than the gems, gold coins and Ankhs that fall, because they have marvelous powers, such as reverse, stop, stop and reverse, lightning bolt and all sorts of magical wonders.
I've played shooter ball games before and I'm pretty good at it. They've just never appealed to me. Until I discovered the Luxor series of games. Now, it's just a matter of trying them all until I find the one that suits me the most.

Rated 5 out of 5 by SynthpopAddict from Oldies But Goodies Pros: smooth gameplay, innovative concept, varied difficulty options Amun Rising only Cons: dated graphics, soundtrack Go back to the beginning of the Luxor legacy and find out what's made this series one of the most popular marble popping franchises ever. Although the graphics on these two initial releases are now dated looking, that doesn't mean the developers didn't put any effort into the games.
If you haven't ever played a marble popper before, the premise is simple: Keep marbles from reaching the pyramid at the end of the track by shooting additional marbles in such a way that a matching group of 3 or more like colors is removed. There is a set number of marble chains you must clear to advance to the next level, and you will receive powerups sporadically as you work on clearing the chains.
You will also want to catch the bonus coins dropping down every so often, since getting enough coins rewards you with an extra life. Uncomplicated, but surprisingly addictive. As mentioned earlier, the graphics are pretty retro since these games have been out for a while, but it's refreshing to look upon them since the screen isn't very cluttered and makes focusing on the game action easy.
The programmers obviously had a warped sense of humor when designing the backgrounds, since you'll see animals with the stereotypical ancient Egyptian painting eyes and body drawing , people sliding down steep pyramids for fun, "large fish tales" depictions, people turning pyramid ramps into gaming halls, the "Queen of Denial" pun intended and even a holiday themed scene, just to name a few.
The sound effects are either intentionally or unintentionally funny too, an assortment of angelic cheers and wolf howls mixed into the blips and pops of the marbles. With the assistance of Modern A.

And they are everywhere. The HOPA genre of games is literally flooded with sameness and often boring. Phantasmat will be a pleasant surprise. Date published: Rated 5 out of 5 by EzgiMelody from Great Game! Enjoyed every minute of this game and story line impressed me too much.
Nice and dark atmosphere, mysterious characters. Thank you Big Fish. Rated 5 out of 5 by moonlanding from My Beginning Phantasmat was the beginning of my love for hidden object games.
It's charming in its simplicity. I have played this game over and over. Will continue to do so. It mostly consisted of HO scenes, which I enjoy. There were some puzzles that were, on average, pretty easy to figure out. The fact that there were no instructions for any of the puzzles compounded that difficulty.
I really enjoyed learning about the different people at the hotel, and exploring the different locations. Everything felt natural and logical, except for the very end. There are three difficulty settings, and no custom difficulty. In HO scenes, you can switch to Match-3 instead.
Since I love HO scenes, I never tried out that option. There are some very creepy scenes, particularly one with discarded dolls. The music was okay, but somewhat repetitive. The voice acting was very good, particularly that of the girl. The main character is not voiced, which is my preference.
The appearance of the three other characters was good, too. Good value. Final Assessment: I enjoyed this game quite a bit and I recommend it. CE or no? They even have trophies for the non-CE version, which is nice.
Rated 5 out of 5 by darienamber from Played this game twice so far! The puzzles aren't very challenging but I love the atmosphere of this game, the story, and the music. I wish the other sequels were more like this one, it's definitely considered one of my favorites! The graphics were just right for the style of the game, the switching from HOG to Match 3 was a great idea, the creepiness of the game was perfect.
Only played the SE and plan on getting the CE just to see the back story on the three main characters. Just an all around awesome game. Rated 5 out of 5 by snm4eva from Heartrending storyline This has to be one of the best storylines I've explored in a hidden object game Date published: In this game, you get to solve 3 different ghost stories, so it's definitely more bang for your buck!
I enjoyed the rooms shifting between past and future, and the effects of the water in the distance.
