Description
DESCRIPTION OF BOARD GAME EGIZIA: SHIFTING SANDS
The hot air shivers as the sun sets over the smooth waters of the Nile. The pharaoh orders the builders to build monuments in his honor so that the descendants will forever remember the legendary ruler. Fertile Nile will help us in this. We will travel along its course to mine resources and build majestic monuments. The builder, whose work will please Pharaoh the most, will receive wealth, fame and honor.
"Egizia" is translated from Italian as "Ancient Egypt". The game appeared in the distant 2009, causing a real construction boom along the banks of the Nile. And ten years later, the sands began to move again. In the new edition of the classic strategy, all difficult decisions related to risks and rewards have been preserved, the balance has been improved, the strategy has gained a new depth, and new monuments have appeared.
NOT EVERY BIRD WILL FLY TO THE MIDDLE OF THE NILE
Construction will last 5 rounds. Players place their ship tokens along the river bed, moving downstream. The river originates in the upper part of the field, and forms a delta at the very bottom. By placing a token, you block the area for other players (monuments are an exception).
The next ship chip can only be placed downstream. Players build, receive location bonuses and Nile maps. The latter give you fields to grow grain, quarries to produce stone, and various benefits.
YOU GIVE US BREAD THAT IS BLESSED
The quarries produce stone, and in the next phase the workers need to be fed with grain from the fields. The latter differ in their productivity. Floods of the Nile wash the banks unevenly, leaving fertile silt on them. Therefore, some fields may not give grain every turn. After that, the workers use the stones mined from the quarries to build monuments that earn points during the game.
WE WORSHIP THE NILE
In addition to the obelisk and pyramid, new interesting buildings are available to players. Sphinx allows you to take objective cards. If the built monuments bring points during the game, then the sphinx cards - at the end.
In the new edition, players can build a colonnade. The more columns you build, the easier it will be for you to build. You can occupy already occupied areas, place ships higher against the current and get one point for each brick placed in the monument.
Below the colonnade there are mysterious statues. The cost of their construction is much lower than the rest of the attractions, but if you manage to fulfill the requirements, you can count on a worthy reward. Players have to plan, as they can only lay out more than one statue brick per round. Each new level of construction imposes increasingly strict requirements.
