Luxor 2 Hits Xbox Live Arcade
April 04, 2007 | by Geoff Duncan
The action puzzle game Luxor 2 has launched on Xbox Live Arcade, giving casual gamers even more Egyptian-themed, ball-blasting fun.
When you think of ancient Egypt, you might think of the Pyramids of Giza, the Sphinx, the palace at Memphis, the Nile delta…or any number of contributions the society made to civilization. And if you don't think of magical balls which must be destroyed before they obliterate pyramids...well, then, obviously, you need to spend some time with MumboJumbo's action puzzle game Luxor 2, now available for Xbox 360 owners on Xbox Live Arcade.
The original edition of Luxor was ranked the leading casual game of 2005; the followup Luxor 2 brings players 88 new levels where players can earn 15 power-ups (including the new "Lightning Storm" and "Pharaoh's Dagger"), play through four difficulty levels, and take on thirteen bonus rounds to climb their way through a new 100-level player ranking system. The Xbox Live edition of Luxor 2 also features a new arcade-style game called the Pharaoh's Challenge in which players only used the Pharaoh' Dagger to eliminate those pesky menacing globes. Xbox Live fiends will also appreciate being able to earn up to 12 achievements and 200 Gamerscore points.
Luxor 2 is available on Xbox Live Arcade for 800 Microsoft points; the game is rated E for Everyone by the ESRB.

I'm really enjoying Luxor 2. A lot more that I thought I would since it is very similar to Zuma.
