Hi guys,

Stephen Mann, who recently contributed the Count game to KGoldrunner,
has just come up with another game, inspired by Eugene's Treasure of
Egypt theme and called "Curse of the Mummy".  It is a Championship-level
game of 20 levels, in which each level is based on some aspect of Ancient
Egypt, ranging from the Giza Plateau to the Parting of the Red Sea.

Of course, there are lots of pyramids, including the less well-known
step-pyramid of Djoser (Zoser), but there are also Pharaoh's Barge, the
Eye of Horus, Anubis, the Great Sphinx, the Cat and several others.  The
hints on each level also include Wikipedia tidbits about Ancient Egypt.

Because of the string-freeze, I have put Curse of the Mummy into playground/
rather than trunk/.  On WebSVN the game-file is at:

http://websvn.kde.org/trunk/playground/games/kgoldrunner/gamedata/game_CM.txt

If you would like to play the game - or just enjoy the graphics - you can
install it simply by copying the file "game_CM.txt" to your directory:

    $KDEDIR/share/apps/kgoldrunner/system/

All the best and Happy New Year everyone, Ian W.
