I am confused,which is normal for me. Are these the same game: Egypt 1156 B.C.: Tomb of the Pharaoh and Egypt Tomb of the Pharaoh? The one I have is in a big box- Egypt Tomb of the Pharaoh by DreamCatcher.

Yes, I believe they are the same game. Dreamcatcher would sometimes change the original name of the game from when it was released in Europe, giving it a different name when published in North America. It can get confusing.

No they are different games with different developers.

Mummy: Tomb of the Pharaoh was by the developer and publisher of Frankenstein: Through the Eyes of the Monster.

Perhaps I am in error, then, although kazzmo didn't mention "mummy" in the title of the game?

You may be right then, Marian.
Dreamcatcher certainly made things confusing.
Check the box covers, kazzmo, and whether the word "Mummy" is included in the title.

Marian, thank you. I did not want to purchase Egypt 1156 B.C. if it was the same game. It certainly is confusing. I still have trouble keeping the Atlantis games straight.

'Egypt Tomb of the Pharaoh' [made by Cryo and published] by DreamCatcher is the same game as 'Egypt 1156 B.C.: Tomb of the Pharaoh' [made and published] by Cryo!

'Mummy: Tomb of the Pharaoh' is a very different game of course, but you could never miss the big name 'Mummy' on it instead of 'Egypt'
