Nile

A deck-driven resource-management card game set in ancient Egypt. Players draft cards from a shared pool to build a hand and then play them to cultivate five different resource suits, with some specialty cards providing multiple resources. At the start of each turn a flood card is revealed that designates which resource type is harvested that round; players with growing cards for that resource collect its benefits. Play proceeds through drafting, playing, and harvesting cycles as players aim to optimize their resource growth and card combos.
