60 of 61 · most liked firstThe Mummy Demastered ($7.99) - hey, we all loved the 2017 The Mummy movie, right? ...okay, jokes aside, WayForward made a tie-in video game for it and it actually kicks ass. Contra run and gunning mixed in with Metroidvania world exploration. good times. store.steampowered.com/app/630310/T...
unlabelledView post →I'm quite fortunate to have @tbskyen.com as a contributor on my upcoming book, who tackles the idea of licensed Metroidvanias and how even a bad movie can make for a good game courtesy of The Mummy Demastered. How does the genre shift to accommodate a random soldier rather than a hero?
unlabelledView post →Just wanna say y'all are nailing it. A whole bunch of fascinating games I've never heard of here, plus some great picks for underrated gems. So, another from me: Despite being part of a doomed movie franchise marketing push, The Mummy Demastered is secretly a sequel to Wayforward's Aliens DS game.

unlabelledView post →October 2025's #MapsOfTheMonth honour @ VGMaps.com: The Video Game Atlas goes to eishiya's The Mummy Demastered (PC) maps. It's a @wayforward.bsky.social game! How often have you seen a game that is better than the film that it is based on? vgmaps.com/Atlas/PC/ind...
unlabelledView post →197) The Mummy Demastered They weren’t kidding when they said this game was 10 times better than the movie it’s based on. The MetroidVania/shooter gameplay blends together perfectly with the horror theme they replicated from the movie. #justbeatit @polykillpodcast.bsky.social
unlabelledView post →Side Quests is back and so is host @troytlepower.bsky.social! He is a podcaster, writer, streamer, and Prodigium soldier! The game he is talking about today is The Mummy Demastered by @wayforward.bsky.social! funandgames.libsyn.com/side-quests-...
unlabelledView post →They're some of my favourites and I miss that era. The Mummy Demastered comes to mind as the most recent one. I always wish every franchise had one random old school tie in game.
unlabelledView post →It's a credit to The Mummy Demastered that what little of the story I can glean from the game intrigues me about the movie – in that seems far more a Quatermass-type story than a Mummy story. Shoot. This is going to end with me actually watching this thing isn't it
unlabelledView post →there should be a "The Mummy Demastered"-style megaman x game starring m3gan
unlabelledView post →I've never seen the movie (because I heard it's trash 😅) but people who haven't played it yet should definitely check out The Mummy Demastered it's an awesome game by @wayforward.bsky.social 👍🏼
unlabelledView post →Murdered: Soul Suspect was, uh, certainly a video game. Needless to say, gonna shelf that one and move along with the marathon tomorrow by playing The Mummy Demastered! Thanks for the raid @xcrimsonstarx.bsky.social I made a little highlight reel in case you missed this one: youtu.be/x9vL9mXzNUI
unlabelledView post →Remember the time they released that weird Tom Cruise remake of The Mummy, but then there was that The Mummy Demastered tie-in video game that was inexplicably really good? I'm FINALLY playing it and it is indeed inexplicably really good.
unlabelledView post →#Justplayed The Mummy Demastered (2017) ohhh it is a chore not dificult but frustrating af . It scratches the old school 2d platforming itch for annoying enemies and clunky movement .and also its a The Mummy game fitting with my current mummy binge #horror #platformer #2dgames #retrogames #themummy
unlabelledView post →#13 - The Mummy Demastered (PC) Really fun Metroidvania tie-in to the forgotten Tom Cruise Mummy movie. The game was really short, at only 3 hours, and had kind of annoying enemy design. #Beat2025
unlabelledView post →I don't know a thing abt The Mummy 2017 other than it was nothing like the films with Brendan Fraser and so is therefore, inferior without him; the video game tie-in+OST version fucking slaps tho; Arid Euphony-from the Mummy Demastered is no exception www.youtube.com/watch?v=dyrp...
unlabelledView post →When I say “art can elevate a competent game into a good game!” this is what I mean. “The Mummy Demastered” has great atmosphere (and I still think it’s one of Wayforward’s better metroidvanias. It’s certainly better than whatever Yars was trying to be.)
unlabelledView post →Kidding aside, one thing I really appreciated on this playthrough of The Mummy Demastered is that the spear enemy is clearly a reference to the infamous impaling scene from the original 1932 The Mummy. I have yet to see the actual film this game is apparently based on.
unlabelledView post →Happy Halloween, here's maybe the wildest string of credits I've ever seen in a video game's special thanks section The Mummy: Demastered - Wayforward (2017)
unlabelledView post →The Mummy : Demastered would be perfect, if not for that corpse run gimmick when you die. It sucked the fun out of the game for me. I loved the art, tight gameplay, metroidvania exploration, all excellent. If they would add an easier/story mode I'd play it again for sure.
unlabelledView post →Yup. “The Mummy Demastered” it was called. A 32 bit action game that was fun and focused solely on the mummy antics. No Tom cruise character in sight.
unlabelledView post →The Mummy: Demastered Might be the most "Metroidvania" game I've ever played that isn't actually Metroid or Castlevania.
unlabelledView post →The Mummy Demastered for $6 on Steam! The WayForward Search Action Game based on the only remnant of the ill-fated Dark Universe, starring the likeness of Russell Crowe! And it comes with the usual issues emblematic of the developer...
unlabelledView post →The Mummy Demastered is a Metroidvania game made to tie-in with the awful 2017 “Dark Universe” reboot of The Mummy. Similar to the new Terminator game, it is a pixel-art game, and while it’s nothing extraordinary, it is known for being better than the movie it’s based on.
unlabelledView post →The Mummy Demastered is a damn fine WayForward metroid-style game. Great soundtrack.
unlabelledView post →Video Game. The Mummy: Demastered. Yes, this is an adaptation of the Tom Cruise Mummy movie. He's not in it. It's a tight and tidy metroidvania in the vein of a PS1 game. youtu.be/u0rh4RcGXo8?...
unlabelledView post →Oops I missed the request for "Gothic Style" in your initial post lol sorry Ok, still uses guns, but a great game much more gothic in tone; The Mummy Demastered. A tie in to the Tom Cruise movie, Contractually disallowed from using Tom Cruise's likeness! store.steampowered.com/app/630310/T...
unlabelledView post →If you think this new Terminator game looks rad, then you should absolutely play The Mummy: Demastered
unlabelledView post →Same. There are certain games that, regardless of quality, can keep me going to fully finish a game to completion just because of the soundtrack. a big example is The Mummy Demastered. Which funny enough, the soundtrack is in the same genre as Slave Zero X.
unlabelledView post →@lunarshinx.bsky.social I dont know if you already play or not for other Metroidvania game. Axiom Verge/2, TimeSpinner, Chasm, FIST, BloodStained: Ritual of the Night, Iconoclasts, The Mummy Demastered, Blasphemous, Shantae series, Owlboy, and Unsighted.
unlabelledView post →Sounds interesting! I’d love a Terminator game in the style of The Mummy: Demastered
unlabelledView post →Sorry folks, I need to take a rain check on tonight. I had miserable sleep last night due to some external stressors and I can't get my head in the game for a stream. I'll put The Mummy Demastered on next week's schedule and focus on resting up for tomorrow's collab with The Morgue!
unlabelledView post →And from watching game trailers that include the music as a party of the trailer - that's how I discovered the glory that is the Mummy Demastered soundtrack.

unlabelledView post →Tonight, Osamu and I tackle my 100th stream game to clear this year. A criminally overlooked gem from WayForward (that's right, the Shantae devs), known as: "The Mummy Demastered"! Stream Start: 7pm CDT / 5pm PDT | #VTuber #PunBrigade | www.twitch.tv/AdventurerAlm
unlabelledView post →Yeah, I mean I love metroidvanias and beat plenty of them in one or two sittings anyway. I managed to beat Bloodstained on a time crunch before it left Xbox Game Pass. I've finished Timespinner and The Mummy Demastered to 100% completion within 15 hours each.
unlabelledView post →I think The Mummy Demastered was their last game I really, really liked playing? I figured there's no way they'd miss making a RWBY game that's better than Grimm Eclipse, but uhhhhh I've been advised not to spend more than $15 on finding out :E
unlabelledView post →Going to be playing it by ear since I was recently sick, but here is this week's stream schedule: Tuesday: The Mummy Demastered at 10 AM EST Thursday: The same at 11 AM Saturday: Again, the same game at 10:30 AM
unlabelledView post →It's the focus on the Tom Cruise stuff I can't stand. And that it's just ripping off American Werewolf in London in various places. At least it gave the world The Mummy Demastered - which is actually a really fucking sick Castlevania style game.
unlabelledView post →The Mummy Demastered was genuinely a solid game; Wayforward knows how to bring the heat.
unlabelledView post →I didn’t think an 8 year old Metroidvania clone based on a failed movie would get me back into gaming, but I’m having a great time playing The Mummy Demastered on the Switch. I might actually finish this game at this rate. Proud of me.
unlabelledView post →The Mummy Demastered is currently $5 on multplatforms! The licensed game based on Universal's aborted Dark Universe by WayForward, warts and all regarding gameplay and design choices. No Tom Cruise for you still, but enjoy Russell Crowe? 🤷
unlabelledView post →Wayforward is a game studio that I feel mixed about leaning towards negative. I've have had a good time with the Shantae games + The Mummy Demastered + the Mighty Switch Force titles, but they've made River City Girls, keeps working with LRG and the PC Port of Double Dragon keeps crashing.
unlabelledView post →www.twitch.tv/jessiepanic Now live with the Mummy Demastered a game version of the Tom Cruise film that is apparently much better then the film, but come see for yourself!
unlabelledView post →The only good thing to come out of that version of The Mummy was the tie-in video game, The Mummy Demastered.
unlabelledView post →www.youtube.com/watch?v=yf_I... Wolfhound has me wanting to watch Frankentstein's Army suddenly, and I'm a sucker for anything that gives me Metroidvania vibes. (not enough in a Survival Horror sense, like The Mummy Demastered, for instance). Can't wait for this game to come out.
unlabelledView post →I can particularly recommend The Mummy Demastered. Sure, it's a licensed game attached to a very mediocre movie, but it's a rock-solid and enjoyable Metroidvania. :)

unlabelledView post →I started replaying The Mummy Demastered. Good game despite my minor gripes. Surprisingly memory holed.
unlabelledView post →I'm gonna say it had potential, especially around Jekyll's organization in the movie. At least we got The Mummy Demastered out of the deal, great game.
unlabelledView post →The stream is over! We finished The Mummy Demastered in our second playthrough of the game tonight. Silver_Huskey will return on Saturday with a stream of Vectorman. In the meantime, we've passed the party on to Floppy_Bacon, who’s speedrunning Retro games.

unlabelledView post →Late to the Mummy Demastered party but yeah, weirdly good game that nobody was asking for. Granted, the trick for making a good Metroid Vania lies in how much you rip off Metroid. This game rips it off a lot.

unlabelledView post →I bought a bundle for two Shantae games and rounded it out with The Mummy Demastered, wow I forgot how good that game was. A SNESish metroidvania with a great soundtrack, suffering from being tied to an awful nonsensical film that imploded its own universe.
