Sixty-nine Egyptian artifact tiles snake across the table in a long serpentine trail. On your turn you claim any tile ahead of you, but you can never turn back for one you passed. As the last tile of a set is taken, whoever holds the most in that set scores, and second place scores half. A quick, brainy chase down a one-way path.
Who it's for
Players who enjoy sharp, quick abstract games with set-collection tension and the pressure of irreversible, one-way choices.
Not for you if…
You want a rich theme or deep strategy. The abstract, calculation-heavy chase can feel dry, and older editions are hard to track down.
Vibe's take
A quick, brainy chase where you can never backtrack, so every tile grab is a sharp one-way gamble on which set closes next.
