An ancient evil force, neither of this time nor of this world, has remained buried since the Egyptians walked the earth. Now it has been exhumed. Of course, you, the hero, must find out what's going on in Egypt. Your helicopter crashes within this danger zone and you must survive on your own. Meet the Egyptian gods and follow their advice.

Exhumed is a first-person shooter set with an Egyptian theme. Twenty-one levels of finding six sacred objects with which you can jump higher, float under water, float and perform other heroics. Beat bosses and kill other creatures using eight weapons ranging from swords to guns to magic staffs.

Exhumed for the Playstation and Saturn consoles was released as Powerslave in the United States.
