Sphinx and the Cursed Mummy is one of those games we picked up from the video game rental store, but could never quite beat, but kept coming back to. Revived in high-res, you can now really appreciate the detail put into the environments and characters! Gameplaywise, you can tell that the game wants you to play it in a very specific way. Screw up, and you're going back to step one of the current scenario, and that's assuming you're on the right track in the first place. It's a game that requires a lot of patience to get through, but if you have it, it can be an incredibly reqarding experience. Little note, though; Using a PS4 controller resulted in uncontrollable button overlap where moving with the analog stick opened the menu, which got in my way during the first platforming section, whereas using a PS5 controller gave me a flawless experience. I don't know if this is a recent update or what, but keep in mind what your control options are.
