The Pyramid's Deadline

Players act as royal architects in ancient Egypt, racing to build the largest tomb before the king’s time limit runs out. On each turn, players roll dice to obtain building pieces and resources, then place those pieces to assemble multi-level pyramids on their personal tableau. The game mixes spatial puzzle placement with negotiation and timing: players may trade or bargain for pieces, decide when to push for a bigger tomb, and manage the risk that exceeding the deadline brings severe penalties. Scoring rewards size and structure while the game clock and dice outcomes shape strategy and interaction.
