The Rock brings the hack-and-slash adventure of his new movie to the Game Boy Advance in The Scorpion King: Sword of Osiris. Can you smell what the Scorpion King's cookin'?

In the game's all-new story, which takes place shortly after the events of The Scorpion King movie, our muscle-bound hero must save his new bride from an evil sorcerer leading an army of the undead. And you thought Stone Cold was tough.

Fortunately, this side-scrolling adventure from Universal Interactive does not dwell on boring stuff like plot, character and screen text, but plunges you into an ancient world of deserts and crypts. In eight stages you will face off against zombies, mummies, spiders and other creepy enemies.

You can wield a sword or a pair of scimitars at any time. The sword is more powerful, but the cool-looking scimitars can reach farther. There are appropriate times for each, so mixing up your weapons is a must.

Standard platforming elements dominate. To vanquish the undead, you'll need to execute pin-point jumps, climb ropes and avoid treacherous obstacles like water and quicksand. The controls and graphics are spot-on, so slicing through enemies is a pleasure.

Like The Rock's glistening bod, The Scorpion King: Sword of Osiris is a well-oiled entertainment that will appeal to fans of unvarnished action.

The Scorpion King: Sword Of Osiris is available now. Now you, too, can destroy hordes of undead.
