Nevada Smith has no life bar, and is killed instantly when he touches enemies or traps. In each level, the player navigates and avoids obstacles by jumping or falling, evading or killing enemies, and find keys to exit each level.

The protagonist, Nevada Smith (a play on Indiana Jones), is an archaeologist and adventurer who is exploring an Egyptian pyramid, hoping to find the Pharaoh's Tomb and get evidence of his findings. The game was re-released in 2015 on Steam with support for Windows and macOS. Notoriously, objects' positions are determined by their bounding volumes, not their pixel precise positions on screen. The game uses CGA graphics based on the FAST (Fluid Animation Software Technology) engine. Pharaoh's Tomb is a DOS platform game created by George Broussard and published by Apogee Software.
