Advantages: Good value for money and will certainly challenge any brain Disadvantages: Dodgy camera angles
Once again I was in choices on the brink of renting a game out for a silly price. But when looking at the shelves of games I noticed that they sold pre-owned games, after much deliberation and searching I came across this game, Sphinx and the Cursed Mummy. I had a good idea of what the game was about because I had played a demo a few years back.
***Gameplay***
You play two different characters in this game a Sphinx and Tutenkamen. Tutenkamen has been turned into a mummy by his older brother and thrown into the dungeon. Your Quest is to save him and bring him back from the dead. By travelling around the different islands and completing a number of quite tricky challenges.
***Graphics***
The graphics on this game are nice and bright with a lot of gold. They really make you engrossed in the game and are quite humourous at times ...
Advantages: It must be the most photogenic place on the island. Disadvantages: Can be exspensive but you can visit for the day.
If you are on holiday on the island of Santorini it is likely that you will be tempted to vist the town of Ia which is famous especially for it's sunsets. Picturesque white and blue houses are built into the rock that overlooks the Caldera; this is an expanse of water formed in the past by the island volcanic activity. Cruise ships sail into the Caldera to view the attractive town,and the colured rock formations (cliffs) that have been created by the erruptions of the volcano and also to allow their passengers to vist the town. Restaurants, hotels, houses and hoilday properties are situated (perched on the cliff face) to take advantage of the view of the sunset over the Caldera.
Ia seems an exspensive place to stay for a holiday on Santorini but it is worth while taking a day trip there; it is a very photogenic place to visit. You ...

Advantages: beautiful scenary, black sand, Aegean sea, Vulcano, rich history Disadvantages: bus connections
that is what makes the whole beach look really beautiful. Warning though, the waves can be annoying for those who don't like it and the water is very dirty!!!
If you want un umbrella and a chair, you have to pay for it, but what you'll get is another story.
- Oia: Many claim that in Oia there is the most beautiful sunset in the world. I can't guarantee for that since it wasn't visable the day I was there. The place was really nice. Very touristic, you have to be quick catching a bus there.
- Thira: It's almost impossible not to go there. It is the center of Santorini. Many restaurants, giftshops, the view is very nice. The walk through the town is very interesting and unique, the streets are narrow, mostly going up (it's on a hill), every now and then a donky comes along?
- Prehistoric Museum: Contains artefacts, frescos?from Akrotiri ...
