'''Shenkuu Warrior''' is an action game released on March 16, 2007, chronicling the quest of [[The Princess]] on her quest to be the greatest warrior ever.

==How to play==
Each level in Shenkuu Warrior consists of a series of ledges that must be climbed in order to reach the top of the mountain. Upon reaching the top and completing the level, you start all over again at the bottom of a new, longer level. Players climb the ledges by firing the princess's grappling hook at a ledge, which then retracts, hookshot-style, pulling the princess along with it. This launches the princess up into the air, where you must then fire the grappling hook again at a new ledge to continue climbing. The further away you are from the ledge you hooked on to and the faster you were moving away from it, the further and the faster you will be launched. If you fall off of the bottom of the screen, you may either end the game with your current point total or restart at the beginning of the level, with only the points you have accumulated in the prior levels. There is no time limit, nor any limit on the number of attempts you may make to beat each level; play continues until you give up.

Clicking the mouse will cause the princess to throw her grappling hook; however, she does 'not' simply fire it towards the place you clicked. (That would be too easy.) At the bottom middle of the screen is a protractor-like rosette with a moving grappling hook pointed outwards towards your mouse. The angle at which the princess throws her hook is the angle shown by that rosette. Thus, to have her throw the hook straight up, you must click directly above the center of the rosette, no matter where the princess is on the screen at that moment.

'''Sutek's Tomb''' is the name for the repository of riches built in the honour of [[Sutek]], a hero and ruler of an ancient [[Geb]] culture, and for the [[Wikipedia:Bejeweled|''Bejewled'']]-[[Wikipedia:Clone (video games)|clone]] and [[Wikipedia:Adobe Flash|Flash]] puzzle game where the players attempt to open the tomb's impassable lock by removing tiles via aligning them up by symbol in rows or columns. Whenever tiles are removed, those above fall down, thus the screen never remains clear.

==How to play==
The object of the game is to earn as many points as possible by realigning on-screen tiles in order to eliminate them, within a time limit. Tiles are removed if they are aligned into being in a row or column of three or more adjacent tiles of like symbols, which earns the user points.

A tile may be swapped around with a tile above, below, or to the side of it - although not diagonally. However, the swap ''must'' result in lining up three or more symbols for it to be a valid play. The user clicks on one tile, and then an adjacent tile, in order to swap them around.

After a tile has been eliminated, the tiles in the column above will fall down to fill the gap, and new tiles will appear at the top of the game screen. If this results in lining up further tiles in a row or column of three or more, then this will automatically be played, and a combination bonus will be issued. This may also boost the time the player has remaining.

Similarly, if the swapping of two tiles results in multiple different sequences of symbols being removed, the player receives bonus points. Due to the nature of the game, the maximum number of tiles that can be aligned in one sequence when making a swap is five. Aligning five tiles will score more points than aligning four, which will score more points than aligning three. There are several [[Sutek's Tomb#Special tiles|special tiles]] that have additional effects to game play.

In the event that no moves are possible, the board will be reshuffled.

There are three game play modes. Normal and hard modes play in a similar fashion to each other, except hard has a large game board and earns more points. Zen mode has a very high time limit, but the very low payout make it targeted more for fun and stress relief than for earning [[Neopoints]].

Typing ''"plzsutekcanihavemoretime"'' while playing will add an additional 30 seconds of play time, but can only be used once during a game.

==Special tiles==

While the majority of tiles will only vanish with in a combination of three or more identical tiles (the maximum number of tiles that can vanish at once through this being five), there are a few other, special tiles that have different effects. All of them, however, can be used in standard three to five elimination sequences.

*'''Bomb Tile''': A red bomb, this tile, if dropped more than two rows at a time, will destroy itself and all the tiles above it - known as a ''Bomb Combo''. The number of points gained depends on how deep the bomb was when it exploded. If it reaches the bottom of the screen, it disappears and you gain 5 points on Hard mode or 4 on Easy mode.
*'''Ankh Tile''': Sutek's Lucky Ankh, when it reaches the bottom of the game board, it will destroy the bottom row and all the tiles directly above it.

*'''Lucky Coin Tile''': The [[Wikipedia:Wild card|wildcard]], this tile acts as any other tile to make a combination vanish. Can be used in more than one combo at the same time.
*'''[[Scarab]]''': A mysterious bug, this tile will eliminate on all the tiles above it in the event of it reaching the bottom of the screen.
*'''Magic Face Tile''': Bearing an image of [[TPOSG]]'s head, when this tile reaches the bottom of the screen, the whole screen is cleared and the user gains a large quantity of points - 500 on Hard mode.<br clear="all" />
==Trivia==
*There is an [[avatar]] available from the Sutek's Tomb game, received after the user submits a score of at least 2000 points.
