Gameplay

The gameplay is similar to Tetris in which the player has to direct blocks of stone, mummy and/or treasure to create closures which eliminates the treasure and adds to the player's score. Also if a full line of stone blocks, treasure blocks or mummy blocks is formed they will disappear in a similar fashion to Tetris and also add to the player's score.

Release

The game was initially released in late 1995 for the Taito X-55, a home karaoke machine that was able to download music and games over a phone line.[1] An arcade port was released the following year, followed by a Sony PlayStation version and a Sega Saturn version that were released in Japan, along with a Dreamcast version in 2001. A PlayStation version was released in the US in 2003, with the original arcade game being released in Taito Legends 2. An arcade only sequel called Cleopatra Fortune Plus was released later in 2002 on the Sega NAOMI system. It was created in association with Altron instead of Natsume.
