About this board game

Valley of the Kings: Afterlife is a deck-building game for 1–4 players that takes about 45 minutes to play. Set in ancient Egypt at the time of the pharaohs, it casts players as nobles preparing for their death and burial in the Valley of the Kings.

The game features an innovative crumbling pyramid deck-building mechanism. As nobles prepare for the afterlife, they seek out treasures to place in their tombs, building a collection that reflects the wealth and importance of their final resting place.

Players can fill their tombs with a range of Egyptian artifacts and features, including:

  • Jewelry
  • Chambers
  • Weapons
  • Tomb art
  • Other treasures

The goal is to collect the most valuable artifacts in your tomb. At the end of the game, the player whose tomb holds the greatest value wins, making the contents of each burial chamber central to the final outcome.

As a standalone game, Valley of the Kings: Afterlife offers a complete experience for up to four players, including solo play. It can also be combined with Valley of the Kings to support games with up to six players, giving fans of the series a way to expand their group around the table.
