If we take a look at the world history, we can see clearly how important is the Middle East. Most of the archaeological discoveries took place there. Moreover, the main religions are born right in the middle of it.
Ancient Egypt in Video Industry
Additionally, the main living testimonies that still stands today are the Egyptian Pyramids. Those squared pyramids influenced many Hollywood movies, as well as video games. For instance, the Indiana Jones movie called Riders of the Lost Ark was mainly influenced by these huge Egyptian tombs. This is just an example, but the list goes on.
If we take a look at video-games, the list of games related to ancient Egypt is even longer. Some of the popular games from this category are Tomb Raider Anniversary and Age of Mythology.
In Tomb Raider Anniversary, Lara has a vision which reveals that the third and final part of the Scion is in an Egyptian tomb. If Tomb Raider was just about the Egyptian places, in Age of Mythology you’ll lead large Egyptian armies, fighting the Greeks or Norse.
