Inc. original Theme Music

Count Duckula and his faithful servants Igor and Nanny have
transported themselves and their castle over to the land of
the Pharaohs, Egypt. There they decide to search for the
mystical Sax, an ancient saxophone with strange magical
powers. They know that the Sax is hidden somewhere in the tomb
of the great Pharaoh Upanatem, a gigantic pyramid in the
middle of the desert. What they do not know is that they have
also brought along some unwanted guests in the shape of the
Crow Brothers.

Duckula must explore the pyramid, solving puzzles and
collecting useful items while keeping an eye out for wandering
Mummies and Crows. With Igor keeping an eye on the time and
Nanny keeping an eye on Duckula he must find the mystical Sax
before the dawn breaks in Transylvania and the castle returns
him home.

You control Duckula, you must avoid the Mummies, falling rocks
and the Crow Brothers.

If you are touched by any of these then you are “frozen“ and
the clock advances by 1 hour.

Duckula can pick up various really useful items, if you don‘t
want an item then Duckula must jump over it. Duckula can carry
up to 3 items. When you wish to use an item then press the
keys 1, 2 or 3 to correspond with the wanted item.

THE ITEMS

Keys:
Used to open doors, unless Nanny has smashed through. A key can
only be used once.
The Ankh:
If Duckula uses this it will put the clock back 3 hours giving
more time.
There are other special items in the pyramid which can only be
used in certain places. It’s up to you to discover what they
do!

THE CHARACTERS

Nanny:
Has  a habit of walking through walls, well why not? Doors  are
boring  and  she‘s not too bright. Fortunately this  will  help
Duckula get about the castle.

These dopey villains are climbing up the inside of the pyramid
and falling down, don‘t let them touch Duckula.
