This is almost becoming common… Oh Mummy Genesis is a newly released game for the Sega Genesis/Mega Drive. What great news! 🙂
It’s actually a remake of a very old computer game. And while it looks like it’s true to it’s original version it does look entirely remade. It’s a puzzle game with very nice graphics and a really excellent sound track.
Oh Mummy Genesis
Doesn’t that case look really nice? Don’t you just want it for your Retro Video Game Collection?
I know I really want it. Very much so.
Have a look. It really does look good. And it is in English despite the fact that it appears its creators first language is Spanish.
I’ve already ordered it! At least I think I did. http://www.1985alternativo.com is in Spanish and when I tried to translate the page it broke the sites ability to process an order. So I studied the English translation and then untranslated it and tried my best to create an account and purchase the game.
I spent €36.95 EUR ($48.46 CAD) for something from the PayPal user general@fasebonus.net. I really hope it’s Oh Mummy Genesis! 😛 If you’d like to try visit www.1985alternativo.com to order your copy.
And head over to Retro Collectfor a few more details about Oh Mummy Genesis.

Wow, you’re The Sega Detective now in my book. Post when you get this, as I’ll probably pick it up as well. I got paid for a freelance job, so that site move is happening in a few days. I’ll be back up and running within a week.

You know how the Internet is. You can often find really cool things by chance. I went back to Retro Collect after making this post and found a few other very cool things. Like some excellent home brew Coleco Vision games (http://opcodegames.com)! Really worth checking out.
I’m sorry you have to deal with moving your site. But I’m glad to hear that your moving right along with the new home.

Sure thing. I’ll play it when it arrives for a good while and let you know if it’s worth the money. I’m no stranger to puzzle games 🙂 Tetris and Puyo Puyo use to be my favorite puzzle games! Puzzle Quest is my current favorite… Hmm, it might be a three way tie.

I love the original Oh Mummy for Amstrad, but the cover art for this remake is much better. The artist’s gallery is http://kyabetsuman.deviantart.com/gallery

Hi Rukia,
Thanks for the link! I had no idea who the artist was. And it is a great cover 🙂 For me the excellent art work is big part of wanting this game for the collection.
Most of the artwork you see on my site is from artists who post on http://www.deviantart.com.
