Eye of Horus (video game) Eye of Horus (video game) Eye of Horus is a computer game developed by Fanfare (Britannica Software) in 1989 for the Amiga. In "Eye of Horus", the player is Horus and must find the pieces of his father, Osiris, and assemble them in order to defeat the evil Set. The pieces of Osiris are located within a labyrinth where hieroglyphs come alive to prevent the player from completing this task. Horus possesses papyrus darts to destroy the evil that attacks him, and he also has the ability to turn into a hawk to fly over certain enemies to help him
Horus regarded as his mother and sometimes as his wife. Horus served many functions, most notably being a god of kingship and the sky. Horus is recorded in Egyptian hieroglyphs as "ḥr.w" "Falcon"; the pronunciation has been reconstructed as . Additional meanings are thought to have been "the distant one" or "one who is above, over". As the language changed over time, it appeared in Coptic varieties variously as or and was adopted into ancient Greek as "Hōros" (pronounced at the time as ). It also survives in Late Egyptian and Coptic theophoric name forms such as Siese "son of Isis"
