Luxor As addictive as it is exciting, Luxor is an action-puzzle game that takes you on a thrilling adventure across the lands of Ancient Egypt.

Stop them all before they can reach the pyramids at the ends of the paths... or all of Egypt is doomed! 4.

The game has three brick types and features real impact physics. Plus, there are three entirely different campaigns, each with 50 unique levels and there is a level-packs support. 5.
