About this game

Abu Simbel Profanation follows Johny Jones after a curse transforms him into a strange creature whose most recognizable remaining feature is his enormous nose. To regain his normal appearance, he must travel to Egypt and reach the pyramid containing Abu Simbel’s tomb.

The pyramid is filled with traps and strange creatures. Johny’s only defense is his jumping ability: he must move from side to side, using long or short jumps to avoid hazards and enemies while searching for the keys that open the way to his destination.
