Egyptian nobles gather sacred treasures to stock their tombs and earn the most honor in the afterlife.

Gameplay

Build a deck by buying cards from a crumbling pyramid market, play them for effects, and entomb sets of treasures to score before the game ends. The tension is choosing when to keep powerful cards to fuel your turns versus burying them in time while rivals snap up the best offerings.
