The Mummy is an action-adventure game released in 2000 for the PlayStation, developed by Rebellion and published by Konami. It blends action-adventure and action elements.

It landed about 5 years into the PS1's life. Other notable PS1 releases from 2000 include Final Fantasy IX, Rayman 2: The Great Escape and Spyro: Year of the Dragon.

It is part of the The Mummy series. The series also appears on other systems with The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor (DS) and The Mummy (GBC). Rebellion also made Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six, Delta Force: Urban Warfare and Gunfighter: The Legend of Jesse James for the PS1.

This is a solo experience: one player, no waiting on anyone else.

Pick it if…

  • you want to get lost in a long quest
  • you have time for a weekend project (roughly 6–20 hours)

Maybe skip it if…

  • you want a game you can finish in one short session
  • you are looking for something to play with friends

What playing The Mummy is like

Action-adventures blend real-time combat with exploration, puzzles and item collection. You open up a larger world gradually as new tools let you reach places you couldn't before.

Tip for newcomers: Keep a mental (or paper) map of locked doors and unreachable ledges; most action-adventures expect you to come back once you find the right item.
