Catalogue information
The cradle of our civilization is in Mesopotamia, 3000 years before Christ. The players each have a leader in the sectors of religion, agriculture, commerce and population. These leaders are added to growing kingdoms, where they earn rewards for players as their industry grows. Building monuments is risky but can be very lucrative. The game doesn't seem complex, but the problems only really start when a player places their leader in a kingdom that already has one of that color. This game has everything that a purely strategic game should have: clear rules of the game, great material, smooth playability and endless possibilities to finish a game. Each player tries to build a dynasty, making sure that all the factors that can make his empire powerful are developed equally. You have to invest in population, religion, agriculture and trade. The core of the game is to earn victory points. No less than that evenly spread over the four species. The category from which you could collect the least number of points determines your final score. Unique system! Anyone who opens the box should get a kick out of seeing such beautiful material. You may now better understand why this game has already won so many awards. This is the best that Reiner Knizia has developed. Euphrates & Tigris turns out to be a formidable game, which was rightly awarded the coveted German Player Award.
