Guide an ancient empire through famine, floods, and raids to outlast rivals and claim the greatest legacy.

Gameplay

Reverse-bidding resolves disasters: the player who ends the bidding takes the devastation, gains all bid resources, and unlocks an innovation. A progress track triggers production, rebuilding, and military clashes as players manage resources and timing to score territories, innovations, and victories.
