Cradle of Egypt

To start with, Cradle of Egypt doesn’t differ much from its previous titles; in fact it’s practically the same. The core gameplay remains unchanged, saving the main principles of this series. Same power-ups, same goals, similar layouts. However, there are few changed things: backgrounds and the items you swap.

Nevertheless, Awem still added lots of unique extras in the gameplay when multiples of the same resource are matched, when multiple combos are made, etc. The mini-games became more varied and offer different levels of difficulty. Moreover, there are bonus levels which you must unlock after you beat the core game.

Of course, the main issue of Cradle of Egypt is that it’s actually a blatant copy of Cradle of Rome. From gameplay right down to the graphics! It seems like they just took their old game and change all notes of Rome into Egypt ones. Still, the artwork is wonderful even maybe be better. There 5 different epochs of time that perfectly presented in high-quality graphics. 

But in spite of its close resemblance with early titles, you will surely find yourself sinking more than a few hours into this captivating match-3 game.
