In this second installment of the Entombed series, fearless archaeologist Jack Logan is back with more adventures in the underworld! While pilfering the tomb of occultist Aleister Crowley, he finds himself transported to a strange world of dark mazes and corridors. Help him escape each level but beware: once the darkness closes in, you will be lost to the underworld forever. Instructions: Collect all the coins to open the next level. Golden powerups will give you extra lives, while the burning brimstone embers will push back the darkness for a little while longer. Brimstone embers can only be activated by passing over a pentacle, so take note of where your pentacles are! Once you clear the current level, you can pass to the next one by entering the pyramid. Controls: Tap any tile you want the character to walk to. He will automatically avoid obstacles to the best of his ability. In-App Purchase: If you run out of lives past the first level, you will be given the option to purchase 15 extra lives for 0.99 USD.
