The player can wield swords, bones, bows, and scorpion tails. The enemies have health bars with colours to show how much health they have left.

The game's plot closely follows that of the movie.
Development
The game was developed by Game Republic and published by Namco Bandai Games. The game was originally going to be published by Brash Entertainment, before it was picked up by Namco Bandai.
Reception
The game received "unfavorable" reviews according to video game review aggregator Metacritic. The graphics, gameplay, story, menu systems, and level design were criticized. Nicky Woolf of The Guardian likened the level design of the Xbox version to "a four-year-old with only three different crayon colours" and labeled the quick-time event combat style therein as "annoying". Ben Reeves of Game Informer called the PS3 version a "frustrating action game with little depth". Dan Whitehead of Eurogamer described the combat as "relentless" but the game as a whole "barely succeeds on its own terms." IGN's Anthony Gallegos called the graphics "ugly as sin".
