Game Classification

Stones of Khufu is a puzzle game where the overall goal is to bring multiple colored stones together. The game field consists of a 10x10 field where one stone takes one grid. Now the player gets two stones which are on the opposite on the field. When holding the right mouse button he can change their position on the board or the horizontal or vertical sides of the field but they stay always on their opposite. When pressing the left mouse button he releases them on the field where they slide in the middle until they meet - this is if no other stone is in the way.

As already mentioned the goal is to bring stones of the same color together. Not entirely surprising they vanish from the game board - but not instantly. On the top side of the room is a laser which then slowly scans the field from left to ride which means the player has time to add more blocks for more points until the laser gets to the stones in question.

On higher levels there are obstacles which hinder the progress, e.g. storms or bugs. The goal of each level is to get a certain number of combinations. Every time the player beats on of the 40 levels he receives a small text which tells him the story of two siblings which suddenly awake as mummies. [source:mobygames]
