Egyptian Adventures: Hamunaptra (d20)
Green Ronin Publishing
Towering pyramids rise from the sands, speaking of the glory of kings long
gone. Three mighty pharaohs, kings and gods, rule over a land divided--
over nations hovering on the brink of war. Priests of mighty deities guide
the lives of peasants and nobles alike, as all struggle to make the most of
the fertile lands that line the mighty river Yor, whose rushing waters are at
once the symbol and the source of all life. But all around, the desert
grows, encroaching nearer each day to the last remaining refuge of a once
mighty civilization.
Egyptian Adventures allows you to play the world's most popular
roleplaying game in the sands of Hamunaptra, a new fantasy setting
inspired by the myths, legends, and culture of Ancient Egypt. Neither the
Egyptian feel nor the playability of the game has been sacrificed. The
classes and races that populate the lands of Hamunaptra are still
recognizable as your own favorites, yet re-imagined to convey the feel of a
time of pharaohs under the shadow of war.
This boxed set includes three separate books, each of which presents vital
setting information. From the classes, races, feats, and magic of
Hamunaptra, to a complete gazetteer of the continent of Khemti and a
book of GM-only secrets, this boxed set contains all you'll need to explore
the world of Hamunaptra. Battle foul beasts of the desert, excavate the
curse-warded tombs of dynasties past, sabotage and spy upon the armies
of rival nations, master ancient magics, or simply attempt to solve the
riddle of the expanding Red Land before the desert overtakes the last,
dwindling bastions of civilization.
This is an age of legend. Make it your own.

Far better than Mulhorand in the Forgotten Realms, this translates D&D's stock figures into an Egyptian world that makes sense, is magical, and allows for immersive role-play that is flavorful and with enough mechanical difference that you know it isn't just medieval Europe with pyramids.
Best of all, several of the classes have been modified to make them more balanced and flavorful without taking you out of the game everyone knows and loves.
This is good stuff and now that it is on sale, well worth it.
The map could be better but it is nice and glossy and does help folks situate themselves in Egypt. This is a boxed set too, with three nice books for your use. Highly recommended.

I cannot recommend this enough. Anyone looking for an ancient Egyptian-styled setting or something to add to one they already have would be well-served by checking this out.
You gnoll lovers out there(you know who you are) are in for a treat too.
I swear these sales are starting to hurt me.

Another nice Egypt flavoured recommendation is "Necropolis" by Gary Gygax himself (r.i.p.), published by Necromancer Games.
It's 3e, published in 2002 and probably hard to get in print. But there are some sites offering the pdf version (e.g. here, unfortunately Paizo doesn't seem to offer pdfs of Necromancer Games).
Cheers,
Günther

I really want to get my hands on a copy of this product. It never showed up in my FLGS. For some reason, Green Ronin products haven't done very well here in Edmonton, except for Mutants & Masterminds.
