What The Mummy: Demastered is
The Mummy: Demastered is an adventure game developed by WayForward and released in 2017. It is available on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Linux and PC (Microsoft Windows). It runs on Unity 5.
The premise, in the publisher's words
Set concurrently with the events of the 2017 film on which it is based, the story places the player in the role of an unnamed soldier of Prodigium, an organization led by Dr. Henry Jekyll. Under Jekyll's command, the soldier is sent to confront the evil forces of Princess Ahmanet, pursuing her and battling the monsters under her control. The fight proves brutal and unforgiving: when a soldier is killed in action, Prodigium simply deploys a fresh recruit to continue the mission, and each new operative must track down the zombified remains of their fallen predecessor to reclaim their lost equipment before pressing on against Ahmanet's growing threat.
How it plays
It is played from a side view perspective. Its themes are action, fantasy and science fiction. It is a single-player game with no multiplayer component. There are 37 achievements to unlock.

How it was received
The Mummy: Demastered holds a critic score of 74 out of 100. That places it above 47% of the 7,530 rated adventure games in our database, which average 72. Games released in 2017 averaged 71, so it scored 3 points above the year average.
How long it takes, and what that costs
The main story runs about 8 hrs. Completing everything takes closer to 11 hrs, roughly 1.4 times the length of the critical path. At its current cheapest price of $4.92, that works out to about $0.62 per hour of the main story, or $0.45 per hour if you finish everything.
What you need to run it
The minimum specification calls for Intel Core 2 Quad @2.33 GHz or equivalent, 4 GB RAM and NVIDIA GeForce GTS 450 or ATI Radeon HD 5700 Series or higher. At 4GB of RAM, it will run on essentially any working PC — that is below what a budget laptop ships with today.
