Pharaoh's Curse

Pharaoh's Curse is a 1-player arcade game for the BBC Micro.

The player is an adventurer exploring a lost Egyptian tomb. The player must explore a horizontally-scrolling maze filled with deadly snakes that continuously spawn from select points within the maze. The player has a flashlight and bombs to defend themself. The flashlight only works horizontally, while bombs can be left for snakes to walk over and be destroyed. Only a single bomb can be deployed at a time. The goal is to gather the keys to unlock an exit door to the next level. There is limited time to complete each level, and the player starts with three lives.
