Gameplay
The Seven Spirits of Ra is a game in which the player is the Egyptian god Osiris,[1] whose spirit must collect the seven spirits of Ra to return to life. The game involves navigating eight areas, each filled with enemies, traps, and puzzles. The player must defeat specific animals to gain their transformative powers, allowing access to new areas and solving puzzles. Resource management and combat are crucial, with limited weapons and health regeneration. The game culminates in a final battle against Set, requiring strategic use of transformations and combat skills.
Reception
Alan Roberts reviewed the game for Computer Gaming World, and stated that "Even though the game is not as tough as it should be, the game is worthy of an above average recommendation and it must be given an extremely strong recommendation for arcade addicts and teachers."[1]
