Cleopatra and the Society of Architects

Cleopatra and the Society of Architects is a family board game where you take on the role of ancient Egyptian architects building a 3D palace. You gather building materials at the Market and collect them at the Quarry. For every part you build, you earn Talents (ancient Egyptian coins).

Beyond the standard market, there are other ways to source materials for your palace. You will be tempted by various shady characters (smugglers, courtesans, beggars, etc.) who offer materials from questionable sources. While this makes construction faster and cheaper, accepting such offers earns you an Amulet of Corruption from the crocodile god Sobek. At the end of the game, the "most corrupt architect" is fed to Queen Cleopatra's crocodiles.

Once the sacrifice is made, the winner is determined—the remaining player who has collected the most Talents.

The game is in English.
