Aim To achieve the most divine points within your pyramid in order to ascend into a God upon your glorious death! Story You are the Great Pharoah Khufu, and your great and glorious reign is coming to an end. In order to become a ‘being’ of the afterworld, you must ensure that your mortal body is safeguarded and recognizable by your spirit. While your embalmers are well instructed on the methods of mummifying your physical body when the time comes, your pyramid is not yet complete. Not only that, but you must fill it with 9 sacred items, entice the Gods to bless your tomb, and finally place the capstone atop your magnificent pyramid and earn your place in the pages of the history books. Game End The game ends when one of the two Pharoahs (players) completes their pyramid by collecting all 9 sacred items, at least 9 Gods (each item having been blessed by a God (or two!)), and placing the capstone. However, being the first to place your Cap Stone does not necessarily make you the winner or indeed the greater Pharoah! You cannot place the Capstone without first placing all 9 items into the pyramid, and at least one God being tucked behind each item. (The Capstone does not need a God.) Capstone – The Capstone, or Pyramidion, was the final piece of the pyramid. It locks the rest of the blocks together, therefore making the structure strong. Interestingly, the capstone from the real Great Pyramid – Khufu’s Pyramid – is missing… Optional "Secrets of the Tomb" Expansion The expansion contains 18 Secret Challenge cards giving players optional objectives to meet! i.e. to have three specific Sacred Items in one row of your pyramid, or to ensure you score more than a certain amount when collection a particular Sacred Item! There also a solo mode for those who enjoy a solo puzzle! How close can you get to a winning score? —description from the designer
