The Pyramids

This app is so worth the purchase. Brilliantly done. Exceeds my expectations. I really want to see the real thing now.

What a fantastic app. This enables poor people and old people unable to travel to get close to seeing the real thing!

This is an amazing app which brings the pyramids and surrounding tombs to life, but it may be expensive for the average user. The walkthroughs of pyramids are great, but through no fault of the app developers, there isn't a lot to see inside, except for zooming through narrow corridors and arriving in empty chambers. The eight or so surrounding tombs, though pretty small and for officials rather than pharoahs, have more content to look at, mostly on the walls, and the ability to see how many of the wall decorations (as well as the pyramids and sphinx) looked originally, is truly wonderful. I also liked the spoken introduction to each tomb, and the personal flavour of the comments, and I just wished it had been longer to give me a better feel for the person buried there. More suggestions (not criticisms) - A page or two of background on these people, or the roles they had, would have been really interesting. I would also have loved to see recreations of how these people actually looked - and dressed - in life, because the wall drawings are so stylized. The "then" recreations of the pyramids and sphinx would also be much more impressive if they were full screen, rather than relatively small pictures, and I would love to be able to download some of the art, for use as full screen wallpaper etc. There is a section allowing you to rotate various artifacts in 3D - this is very nice, but I wish there were some more interesting objects, as most of the items are plain little statuettes that don't really benefit from rotation. The two standout items are a gold funerary mask and full size funeral boat. I would have loved to see more gold jewelry and perhaps some of Tut's objects, like chariots. Again, that's a suggestion rather than a criticism, because I gather that 360 degree photography is pretty complex. However, I think it's overselling the app to say there are dozens of "exquisite" artifacts, when most are pretty unremarkable. The app includes a very professionally produced and detailed history that I found very impressive. There is some serious reading here. Now - without wishing in any way to be critical, you can get through everything in about an hour, or maybe two, bar the reading. So if you want to just see the special effects like the 3D and "then" and "now" comparisons, you may be disappointed by how quickly you get through all of it. Speaking for myself, once I got a taste for what the app could do, I couldn't help wishing there was more of it

This is an amazing application. Well worth the price.

This app is second to none! Visiting the Giza Plateau in person is the only thing that could possibly compare. Even then, not all the sites documented in this app are accessible to the public in Egypt. This amazing app will take you back thousands of years to life as it was in ancient Egypt and the wonders of the pyramids and tombs on the Giza Plateau. From the virtual tour of the plateau and inside the pyramids and tombs, to the 3D images of King Tut's death mask and a close look at the hieroglyphics on the tomb walls, this app really does cover it all. The views of these fascinating monuments (as they appear now and how they appeared thousands of years ago) are spectacular! There are so many truly beautiful images with such accurate and fascinating information, both written and narrated. This app is worth the price of a plane fare ticket to Egypt and the iPad combined! Thank you so much Dr Zahi Hawass, Sandro Vannini and Bram Calcoen for their areas of expertise towards this app and to Touch Press for bringing it all to life! It is very much appreciated by someone with an Egyptian heritage who has longed to visit Egypt to see the wonders of the ancient world. Do not hesitate in buying this app. It is worth every cent!

If you've been to Giza, or want to go, you will love this app. Excellent detail, beautiful graphics, the chance to 'visit' several tombs as well as go inside the pyramids - this is a terrific resource. The accompanying book is interesting, too. If this is the way of the future in e-publishing, then it's going to be great fun. Recommended to all Egyptophiles.

把游戏的动画制作和交互设计运用到电子书中，展现金字塔外部和内部，还有器物的3d模型。值得文物保护相关人员学习研究。

这个开发商的作品都是很棒的，到价位都偏高。这个有点相当于游戏的操作方式，是全3d的空间，还有壁画复原图的比较，有几座金字塔和墓穴。长知识是肯定的，就是没中文

全是英文，我还以为是中文版呢，失望!
