Set it in one of the many deserts that aren't the Sahara. Battlefield Bad Company 2 had a lot of its levels based around the Atacama desert in south America, very cool locale.
can we even get more creative than this what's associated with sand
desert levels are ludo
Takes place in an oasis.
Set on the Mauritania Sahara train or in Timbuktu. Enemies are some sort of promising architects and doctors from the religion of peace. Music is tribal bullshit. Scenery is bleak desert and Malian pyramids.
Maybe a camel chase rails shooter.
Chilean desert. Instead of mummies, it's Mapuches trying to invade the white man's land. Also guanacos that spit poison, foxes and cougars that use their surroundings to set up ambushes, big ass grasshoppers, etc.
First boss would be a big fucking condor that shoots razor sharp feathers, and also fire becouse why the fuck not. Final boss would be Chile's crippled economy.
Mummies and pyramids is based as all fuck, if your game features deserts but no mummies or pyramids I will not buy it, I probably won’t even pirate it. It’s like games that have water but no sharks your missing the best part.
Do what FFX-2 tried to do, but flesh it out. Your an archaeologist/excavator and you go from site to site trying to uncover mysteries which leads to dungeon crawling, puzzles, enemies, etc.
Replace the sand with snow
FUCK I forgot the music. "muh tribal", fuck that shit, I say go the Metal Slug way and incorporate Mapuche tribal crap + metal
Giant stretches of inhospitable desert that are only navigable by river, but objectives require forays into the firey hell. Soundtrack is silent except for the wind and sand blowing when away from the riverbed which plays merry rafting music
There's a single oasis, the rest are all mirages that spell out nigh certain doom if you're dehydrated and overheated enough to see them. You can also freeze to death during the nights too!
>open console commands
>teleport to end of level
But I like all those things in the OP, that's exactly what I want
More cute egyptian girls
A journey up the Nile. It's like Far Cry 2 but with AIDS instead of malaria
Why not both?

>Have to pop an aids pill to keep your aids in control
>have to kill other people afflicted with aids with a machete in order to get their medication
>side quest where a shaman tells you to rape a virgin to cure it, and you're amazed when it doesn't work
Rwandan genocide simulator when?
>Drink the puddle to survive
>Have "consentual" sex with the Africa woman to cure malaria
Sounds like a good sim game
>Guest starring Joseph Kony and General Butt Naked
deserts are actually made up of rock more than just sand
I used to love getting lost in the desert.

The way Uncharted 3 handled deserts was fucking amazing, also Spec Ops the line had some interesting desert type set pieces
Sounds like Far Cry 2
>Flashback to your time as a child soldier
>There's a white kid there with you
>He murders the fuck out of everyone
>meet him later
>He's some sort of robot man
reminds me of this level
Speaking of far cry 2, what character did everyone play as?
I played as the Northern irish one as I thought he was the closest to me culturally but apparently he was part of the IRA so I feel bad about it now
Had a lot of faults but I did like that the game took place in mostly desert areas
And of course it'll have a good ost

Post apocalypse where the whole world becomes desert.
Typical metropolis but with sands everywhere and a whole game of it. You have the rich part and the slums which looks like Baghdad with alleys everywhere.
