About Pyramids of Ra

Pyramids of Ra is a Game Boy title where the player directs an archaeologist through tomb mazes. Progress requires clearing every tile in a level, which is done by stepping onto and then jumping off each one to break it.

The completion of each stage involves a challenging two-step process: after all tiles are destroyed, the character must return to the starting point to advance.
