About this game

In Luxor , you journey through Egypt while battling Set to help Isis save the land.

A level in Luxor consists of a pyramid and a long path.

On this path, scarabs, Set's minions, are moving long groups of different colored spheres toward the pyramid.

Your mission is to hinder those scarabs from completing their task.

For this purpose, you have a winged sphere shooter with which you fire your own spheres into the queues of the moving scarabs.

When you create a group of 3 spheres of the same color, they vanish.

As soon as all spheres of a scarab are removed, you have destroyed this minion.

Either when you destroy one of Set's minions, or you take too long to destroy it, another minion with lots of new spheres enters the screen, heading for the pyramid.

Once you have destroyed all spheres in a level, you proceed to the next one.

But when a scarab's spheres reach into the pyramid, you have lost a life.

The game offers 88 levels, which are spread over 12 stages throughout ancient Egypt.

When you progress through the levels, you will start with just one pyramid, but this will change over time, and you must play against two (or even more) scarab groups simultaneously.

To help you, and make the game more interesting, there are plenty of power-ups available, like fireballs and lightning bolts for destroying multiple spheres, stopping, slowing down, and reversing the movement of all enemy scarabs for a few seconds, precision shots (with an aiming help), and some others.

About Nintendo 3DS

The Nintendo 3DS (2011) added glasses-free stereoscopic 3D and a second analog input to Nintendo's handheld line, eventually building a library that rivaled the DS in size and quality. Because the eShop for digital purchases has since closed, physical 3DS cartridges are the only way to preserve access to many titles — a dynamic that's pushing more collectors toward cartridge-based copies even for games that were originally digital-first.

Gamevaro tracks LUXOR for Nintendo 3DS with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.

Adding LUXOR to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This 3DS release dates back to 2008.

Market insights

🌍

NTSC-U is 25% cheaper

The NTSC-U version (€10.51) is significantly cheaper than PAL (€13.10) loose.

Rarity & condition

Only a handful of market sales have been tracked for LUXOR, suggesting it doesn't trade hands very often — a sign of relative scarcity compared to more common Nintendo 3DS titles.

Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
