Skip it if you…
Saves you a refund- Players seeking a deep narrative or role-playing progression may find the experience centered on repeated level runs and treasure collection.

- Players looking for a game built around a fixed campaign rather than user-created pyramids may find its structure unsuitable.
Our take on Pyramid Raid
Its defining structure is a speed-focused platforming raid through pyramids made by other players, with level creation tied to the treasure economy.
What is Pyramid Raid?
Pyramid Raid combines platforming with tower defense elements in pyramids created by other players.
Players control a former Egyptian merchant who has become a mummy and enters these structures to collect treasure. Each pyramid contains traps and hazards that must be navigated without dying. Speed and timing are central, with routes judged by how quickly a level can be cleared as well as whether it can be completed. The game also includes a level editor for building custom pyramids. Successful creations can earn additional treasure when other players enjoy them. The setting uses humor around the merchant’s continued pursuit of wealth after becoming undead.
