About this board game
Pyramidice is a 2023 strategy game for 1–4 players, with sessions lasting about 60 minutes, set among the ambitious architects of ancient Egypt.
On the Giza plateau, rival architects compete to build more than tombs: they seek to create engineering masterpieces that will be worshipped and raise the Pharaoh’s honor. Every project is part of a larger contest for fame, recognition, and the immortality of your name.
The game combines dice and card combos with project building and worker management. Timing is essential, since the right decision at the right moment can strengthen your own plans while disrupting the strategies of your opponents. Controlling the pace of the competition is just as important as pursuing your own construction goals.
- Combine dice and cards to develop your projects.
- Manage workers while competing against other architects.
- Choose wisely which gods to ask for blessings.
- Use the power of your precious Scarab to support your ambitions.
- Explore different strategic paths toward victory.
Worship of the gods adds another layer to the architectural rivalry. Selecting the most useful blessing can make the difference between a respectable achievement and a legacy that outshines every other builder. The Scarab also holds special importance, infusing its holder with power in the struggle to make Egypt the most incredible place in the world.
Fast and deep, Pyramidice is designed for high replayability, giving players room to pursue different approaches from one game to the next. In solo mode, you challenge one of four great architects of ancient Egypt: Snefru, Hemiunu, Amenhotep, or Imothep.
