The Mummy is an action game with puzzle elements based on the movie of the same name. The plot basically centers on an Egyptian priest who was mummified in his time and later resurrected in 1926, threatening to destroy the world.
The gameplay focuses on exploring tombs and collecting artifacts inside. In most levels, players have access to three protagonists with different abilities: Evelyn can transport items and jump high, Rick can shoot with his pistols or use a sniper rifle to hit far away switches, and Jonathan can use explosives. Each character has their own life bar, and the player can switch between them instantly. To progress through the game, all three characters must be used effectively to solve puzzles and overcome platforming challenges.
