Groups of 3-5 who want area control where combat is the main event. Best when everyone commits to aggression.

Not for defensive players or groups that prefer economic engines over direct conflict.

Aggressive, mythological, strategic, confrontational

About this game

Revised edition of the Egyptian-themed area control game where aggression is the only strategy. Buy power tiles from a shared tech tree, summon mythological creatures, and attack — there's no turtling in Kemet.
