"Pharaohs’ Curse (Gold) is a great puzzle-solving game that will offer you many hours of challenging game play. Its low system requirements make it accessible to just about anyone with a PC that can run Windows 95, and the simple game play and colorful graphics will appeal to both kids and adults alike. What really amazes me is that this little 2D arcade puzzle game has provided me with just as much fun as many of the $50 titles that come across my desk."

Mark Smith - Game Chronicles

Ancient Soft delivers a great platformer with challenging puzzles, an enjoyable soundtrack and a built-in level editor.

Game du Jour


"One of my favorite things about this game is the way that both the graphics and music are used to really give the game that ancient Egyptian feel. It really does a good job of setting the scene and getting the player into the mindset of a tomb raiding adventurer. The full version of the game comes with 70 fairly large levels which should be enough to keep anyone busy for a good few weeks, and even then with the use of the built in level editor, you can continue your adventures by creating your own tombs to plunder! A very solid game that's definitely worth a look."

Hi, this game doesn't run for me on macOS (Apple Silicon). I guess it needs to be compiled for arm. I am a game developer with a lot of experience in this area and would like to volunteer to build a new version of the game for modern macs. Would you be willing to work with me on that?

This game is my childhood game. It's stunning🙌🏼

Glad you liked it.

Hi I just wanted to ask if this game is planning to go on discount again any time? The reason I've had my eyes on this game lately is because I used to enjoy playing this game on a very old computer over a decade ago, and so I wanted to play it again for old times' sake. But when I found this game again last year I realized that I had just missed the discount period, so I've been waiting ever since (I'm poor 😢).

I reactivated the discount till the end of this month!

Thank you so much for reactivating the discount! I just bought the game but I'm running into some difficulties. I'm currently using a Mac, and whenever I try to open the game the program keeps crashing and I'm prompted with an error report. Then, when I try to open the game directly using the "Main" file in the package contents, the game launches but the game only displays in a small corner of the window. Is there any way to fix this problem?

(I would attach some images to show you directly but for some reason I can't)

Sorry for the late reply!

What Mac model do you have?

What does the error message say?!

I use a MacBook Pro with M1 chip.

Also I can finally upload images now so I'll just show you.

This is what the error message looks like when I try to open the game directly:

And this is what the game screen looks like when I open the game using the "Main" file in the package contents:

It's playable but only in a corner of the screen and I can't adjust the size either.

Well, It looks like the problem is with Apple's Rosetta translator which enables M1 chip to execute x86_64 code.

I am afraid I won't be able to help here as I have no access to M1 Mac, I am so sorry.


I think that many others have similar problems here on itch. It keeps telling me the following.

"We had an issue processing your payment.

We're sorry about that. An error was encountered when processing your payment through our payment processor."

Anyway, I don't mind the discount. I just want the game. Can I purchase it through your own site?

By the way, I have an old demo from the version 1.1 that has some cool songs. Would you consider including them in a future update?

Glad to hear that!

Can you send me the old version as a zipped file to maher @ osakit . com

I will send you the full version for free :)

When I try to buy the game using paypal it says: "There was a problem executing your payment (422)"

Please try again or contact PayPal

Please release this game and Magic Seal on steam!

I will see what I can do, thanks!
