Egyptian

Bond leaving Egyptian, after killing Baron Samedi

Ditto, in the XBLA version.

The el-Saghira Temple, more commonly known by its mission select name Egyptian, is the final bonus mission in GoldenEye 007. This mission can only be unlocked by completing all previous levels, including Aztec, on 00 Agent (which is NOT a small feat). Unlike Aztec, this level isn't based on a specific Bond film, although its general appearance is no doubt modelled after the Egyptian scenes in The Spy Who Loved Me; instead it features a variety of elements taken from various classic Bond films in the 1970s merged into a plot designed to follow on from some of those movies. The map features a layout that suggests it may have been designed for multiplayer and later adapted to solo. It has no obvious start point and loops around on itself as all the multiplayer-only maps do. Bond recovers the Golden Gun here and must battle Baron Samedi.

The level includes a rather strange puzzle to recover the Golden Gun; in a room with a tiled floor, Bond must follow the correct path to the Golden Gun. Stepping on the incorrect tile, will render the Golden Gun inaccessible and result in four bulletproof Drone Guns activating, with the only option being to flee the room through the door to the far left of the room and re-entering to reset the puzzle.

It is not at all clear how the player is supposed to figure out the correct path of the puzzle, other than sheer trial and error.

Trivia

• It was originally known under the name "Crypt" in the beta.
  • On the watch, in the objectives sub-menu, it is still called Crypt.
