Think of it like a tower defence, only you personally are protecting the end goal. There are several Stages throughout your Egyptian journey.

Achievements for story progression, scores, ranks, time, and accuracy are something I wish would have been added, as it would have made the game's progression interesting. Sadly, they did not.
