Pyramidion

Published 2012

In Pyramidion, each player plays an Egyptian foreman in charge of a resource supply for the gigantic construction site of the Cheops pyramid. On your turn, you activate sites and play cards in order to gain the biggest influence on these sites. Each foreman will use his contacts among merchants, negotiators and torturers (!) to supply boats located in major cities of Egypt. These boats will set sail in the direction of Giza only when full capacity is reached with the resources they require. The foreman who most effectively furnishes the construction site – the one who first obtains ten victory points – will be rewarded by the Pharaoh himself. Pyramidion is both a strategic and tactical game, with some luck involved and a lot of player interaction. Are you going to thwart others – or focus on your own success?
