About
The Sceptre of Gods - a primeval symbol of power wielded only by the greatest leaders of the most dominant ancient civilizations in Central America. Legends state that whoever possessed the artifact would be granted divine wisdom and eternal life. Scolars even claim that without it, the Aztec Empire would have never came to flourish.
While most academics considered it to be a myth, a world famous archeologist Tomb Jack recognized there could be some authenticity to the story. After years of research, shrouded in secrecy, he led an expedition to prove the artifact's existance and bring it back to the civilized world. He was able to discover an ancient crypt which led him and his companions to a place none of them could have imagined, even in their wildest dreams. Unfortunately, after many months, none of them returned and soon, all were proclaimed dead.
Years later, Tomb Joe, renowned archelogist and a fearless adventurer recieved a mysterious letter adressed to his long lost father. It only contained two things - an ancient map and a golden medallion engraved with the symbol of the Sceptre. While the medallion piqued his interest, it was the map that made him act. For the first time, he learned the destination of his father's expedition. There was no time to waste. Not an hour later, Joe was already on his way to Central America...
Embark on a journey to unravel the mystery of the Sceptre of Gods and Tomb Joe's father's disappearance. Armed only with his sharp wit and his trusty whip, Joe will have to face deadly traps, dangerous wildlife, and the best soldiers of the Reich to reach his goal and bring fame to his father's name once again. If he allows the Sceptre to fall into the wrong hands, whole humanity could be doomed. Travel through exotic environments, explore long forgotten tombs, fight or sneak your way past vicious enemies, solve puzzles and try to discover the secret behind the mysterious artifact in this thrilling action-adventure parody platformer.

Tomb Joe-boring platformer, for half an hour passing with all (3) achievements to get another "perfect" game in the profile. Another thrash, from the creators of thrash from Amaterasu Software.
Plot.
The Tomb Joe goes in search of three ancient artifacts, before they find them Nazis. The Plot in fact and no, all that is made for a tick, and then is a pretty crooked footnote on Indiana Jones.
Gameplay.
3 zones, and 3 achievements for their passing. Entry part of the game is boring, Boevka Zabagovana, because the whip is impossible to beat bats whose trajectory is just below or above the character. At the death of the character all freezes, and you need to press R to start from the beginning of the location. All 3 zones end in the same, blunt escape from the big boulder. Everything passes in half an hour-the maximum.
Graphics and sounds.
The Picture is bluffing and dull, at jumps it is visible that in the bottom part of levels disappear pixels. The Music in the initial Menuchke not bad, in the game is normal.
As a result.
Easy "Perfect Game" in the profile. Plus-Cards. Minus-interesting gameplay, and decent picture.
It is Better to pass the old games about the olden days Indiana Jones.
3 artifacts from 10 gameplay http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1126193393 P. S: If this review was useful for You put like, and also add friends and subscribe to me as a curator-Reviews online

Product received for free 2D-platformer, which was created too literally for this genre.
Having Limited the minimum number of backgrunds, "oak" control of the protagonist Joe, a huge number of "objects for jumping" and a meager plot "to be", the developers showed us this game, consisting of only three levels.
Do you know what will happen if you pass the third level? ... It'll happen again!
On story we like to investigate the mystery of the Gods and the disappearance of the father. To Interfere in this case will be a couple of types of enemies, whose level of IQ leaves much to be desired, but if the snakes and bats can be treated indulsively, the soldiers of the Reich (and the best, according to the description of the game!) do not withstand any criticism.
And the main "enemy" here-a cobble-stone, which will have to flee more than once. One Touch-death, as well as from everything else. It's Funny that you have to die here more than once, but "Avtovoskreshenija" did not bring, you need to press R. There are weapons whip, effective only against bats, and then not all. The Gameplay and content clearly hint us not some other popular franchises.
Basically, the game can run-jump in 20-30 minutes, but given the large number of small platforms, the dastardly location of some enemies and traps, you can not manage and for a good hour or two times.
Tomb Joe gave me a gift, I would have bought it at least with-50% discount, or even passed by.
