Karnak, the “Most Selected of Places”, has been revised by pharaohs and their architects for thousands of years. Here, you are one of those same architects, tasked with design contracts from pharaoh. Score points by placing pieces freely in an organic, creative space. However, your opponents are trying to gain favor of their own, and soon all your competing needs will clash as you meld and transform the desert into a timeless place of holy worship. Add in some tricky methods of moving your opponents pieces and freezing your own in place, and you will be an ancient architect in no time! This competitive game is steeped in lovely art and historical references to try and bring one of the world’s oldest, and most renovated, creations to life.

Emma Z. ★★★★★

The rulebook's theme of revising Karnak over centuries really pulls you into the architect role, and every contract with the pharaoh feels like a fresh puzzle. I've already played three rounds in one sitting, and each one made me rethink my strategy completely.

Christopher Y. ★★★☆☆

The game has a clever theme about temple architecture, but the rulebook could have been clearer on scoring—we spent the first game just figuring that out. The card art is decent, though not as detailed as I'd hoped for an ancient Egyptian setting. It's fun enough for a couple of plays, but I doubt i
