I remember playing this game as a kid. I think it was called
"The Voice Of The Mummy". The game had three or four tiers that you would walk around to pick up green plastic jewels. There was also a Great
Jewel (red) you could get by landing on the right square. There was also
a "spell"- a red plastic snake. The voice part of the game was when you landed on the squares with the mummies on them. (WOW I STILL REMEMBER
THIS?). The voice result was randomly good or bad. There was maybe 8
messages or so like:"I am the unseen wailer I will make you deaf---Take A jewel and ignore him". The one with the most jewels won, the great jewel worth 5 and the spell -5 points. You used one or two 6-sided dice to
move.
Anyway the game was A styrofoam "wedding cake". with a plastic
sarcophagus on top that contained a small record player. Alas , the game
was my sister's and the needle fell off the player and the game was
either mothballed or discarded. I probably was about 8 or 10 years old at
the time which would make it early seventies. Next time I am at my
parent's house I will ask them, but I doubt the game is still there.
I will e-mail you if I find it.
Try looking at voiceofthemummy.com
