The Mummy is one of the best occult action flick when it was released a decade ago and til today, it remained a great franchise that spawned two sequels, the latest being the upcoming The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor. Vivendi Games and Sierra Entertainment are counting on the popularity of this movie to make the accompanying Wii game a success.

Tomb of the Emperor sees Brendan Fraser reprise his role as Rick O’Connell and this time his adventures transport him and his family to ancient China where his son Alex unknowingly brought Emperor Qin (played by a convincing Jet Li from Romeo Must Die) back from the dead. Players will basically take turns to control different lead characters in a bid to put the Emperor and his terra cotta warriors back into eternal slumber.

This hack-and-slash game will see players taking control of the Wiimote and Nunchuk to battle the ancient Chinese army. Not only that, the game developers revealed that there will be fast and furious hand-to-hand combat as well as exciting gunplay. Besides thrilling combat, players will also need to solve puzzles in order to unlock mysterious chambers and collect hidden treasure in order to advance through the game. I was most amused to hear that a three-headed Gorgon will be one of the bosses you’ll fight in the game, though for the life of me I cannot imagine how this mythical monster fits in with ancient Chinese history. There’s also a little hieroglyphic coding to complete but again, I am not certain how this is relevant in the storyline.

Overall, I think this game is worth playing simply for its entertainment value. Not to mention, we get to kill Jet Li the baddie!
