If you haven’t already tried this little mind game, you really should.  It’s just the perfect thing for the week before Halloween.  See if you can solve the puzzle of how to get the mummy out of his tomb.

Go ahead… see if you can solve it.

You won’t regret it… for a while.

Want to ruin Halloween?  Sure.  Why not?  Give it a try.  This puzzle has driven many players totally insane.  I’m actually not kidding.  I’m dead serious.  It’s really hard.  It can warp your helpless mind and make you smash your computer.  I have received more hate mail for this little puzzle than for any other reason.

Why don’t you try it?  Go ahead… see if you can solve it.

You won’t regret it… for a while.

German toymaker, Playmobil, has a new Egypt play-set out that has been one of the highlights of the 2009 Toy Fair in New York City.  It includes a giant pyramid with secret traps, treasure chamber, tombs and removable walls.  But what is really great about this whole thing is that the company has produced a series of animated films based on the play-set’s characters.  It’s a wonderful adventure in a fanciful ancient Egypt.  You’ve got to see this.  Here’s part 2 of the film.  Here’s part 3.
