Luxor 3 is a puzzle game from MumboJumbo, released in 2007. You guide a scarab tasked with freeing Egyptian gods from Set by stopping chains of colored spheres before they reach the pyramid. Match three or more spheres as they move through a maze, using color-based power-ups and reflectors to make otherwise difficult matches. Ankh coins collected during play can be spent on upgrades, and additional ball sets, shooters and power-ups can be unlocked. Its branching and merging paths add changing routes through more than 140 levels. The game includes seven modes, among them five new modes, as well as bonus-level play. It is listed as single-player and supports Family Sharing. Platforms listed are Windows, Wii and macOS; the Steam release is listed for Windows.
