Rise of the Nile PC Version 1.8.9

A loop-making puzzle game set in ancient Egypt. The evil god Seth has cursed the land to barrenness. Lay out irrigation ditches to divert the waters of the Nile and make the desert bloom. To help you in your task, the Queen has provided you with an array of magic. Use magical hieroglyphs to increase your score, but watch out for scorpions! Play in against the clock in timed mode, or face the challenge of strategy mode. With five levels of play and 35 unique boards, this addictive game will keep you enthralled for hours!
Irrigate an area multiple times for a higher score. Use the mighty Flaming Khopesh sword or the Rush of Sand to turn an area back to sand and start over, or use them to disable the scorpions sent by Seth to turn the desert into a rocky wilderness. Play in windowed or full-screen modes. Includes illustrated in-game tutorial.
