Review: This is a really cool game. We chose it as it was one ... - This is a really cool game. We chose it as it was one of the nominees for the Spiel des Jahres and I think it deserves to win this year. The concept is very simple, you are not so much the Imhotep himself as his suppliers. There are various building projects, the pyramids, a temple, a tomb and some obelisks. What you have to do is quarry the stone get it to the boats via your sledge and then sail them down the Nile to appropriate building site, alternatively you can take them to the market and trade them. The catch is that although everyone’s sledge is exclusively theirs the boats are communal and can be used and controlled by anyone. So just as important as it is to get your stone to where you need it, is the need to scupper your opponent’s plans by sailing his stone to the wrong places or alternatively blocking the harbours up with other boats so he can’t get his stone in.

Great game, easy to pick up and learn and really quick if you want to play something fast paced and you don't have much time

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fantastic game for a party of four
*by S***W on 27 March 2017*

Fantastic game for a party of four! Really simple once you have played the first round, exciting right up until the end. This game is great because it only lasts around 40 minutes, but after each time you want to play again.
