Imhotep: Builder of Egypt (Remastered edition)

TTS rendition of the family game by Kosmos. Even though the boards & cards are all in German, English descriptions have been added to clarify their intent. Any of the English scans that I found were poor at best, so translating the existing German ones was the better option. Just hover over an item for a few seconds and the translation will appear. If high-quality scans of English components pop-up, I'll eventually swap them out. This workshop item is a remastered edition from the original module by Funkenstein. Without him, this rendition would never have been possible.

A round & turn overview has been added on the right-hand side of the screen to allow players to keep track of what to do next. I've added a stated English rulebook at one of the table's corners, granting players the option to learn the game from inside the module itself.


Description from Boardgamegeek.com:

In Imhotep, the players become builders in Egypt who want to emulate the first and best-known architect there, namely Imhotep.

Over six rounds, they move wooden stones by boat to create five seminal monuments, and on a turn, a player chooses one of four actions: Procure new stones, load stones on a boat, bring a boat to a monument, or play an action card. While this sounds easy, naturally the other players constantly thwart your building plans by carrying out plans of their own. Only those with the best timing — and the stones to back up their plans — will prove to be Egypt's best builder.
