About this game

Eye of Horus is an action, platform, and shooter game developed by Denton Designs and published by FanFare. Set in an ancient Egyptian pyramid, it follows a mystical shaman seeking the magical Eye of Horus.

The shaman can transform into a bird by pressing the up arrow to search through the levels, then return to human form with the down arrow. Traps throughout the pyramid provide additional danger.
