If you have heard about this Luxor game and you want some direction, some tips and some hints to get you started, read on!
Your role in the Luxor game is to save Ancient Egypt from certain doom. The pyramids are in peril, and you need your quick reflexes and skills to save them. There are colored spheres that roll constantly along a convoluted track in the game. You need to get them out of there before they can enter further into the pyramid. You will see a winged scarab during your game use your mouse to aim at it, then click the mouse to launch a colored sphere at the moving line. If you are able to match sets of three or more spheres that are identical in color, you are going to be able to remove them from the line.
In the claws of the winged scarab you will see a colored sphere too. This sphere that you see in his claws is going to be the next color sphere that is going to be available. You can right click to go between the current sphere that is up and the one that is going to be up next. There are symbols you will see that fall throughout the game, and if you are able to catch enough of them, you will be able to collect power ups, which are going to help you tremendously as the Luxor game goes on. In addition to the symbols, you will also see falling gemstones. You have to catch these to in order to win huge bonus points. When you earn 30 coins in the game, you are awarded with an extra life.
Here are some tips to help you accomplish all of this: Instead of aiming where a potential match currently is, you need to aim at where it is going to be when your sphere reaches that area of the screen. Lines move the fastest when they first enter the screen. If your current sphere has turned into a fireball powerup, a wild, or lightning, you can save it for later when you really need it by cycling to the next sphere and using that one instead. When you use a lightning powerup during your Luxor game, aim right between two close vertical track segments so that the spheres in both of those tracks are removed in one move.
