Valley of the Kings puts you in the sandals of a noble of \u003cstrong\u003eancient Egypt\u003c\/strong\u003e who must gather riches, amulets, statues, and provisions to fill a tomb before the long journey into the afterlife. Each round, a pyramid of cards rises before the players: you buy a card from its base, and the pyramid crumbles to bring the cards above down to the bottom, constantly renewing the chance to enrich your funerary collection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt the heart of the game lies an original \u003cstrong\u003edeck-building\u003c\/strong\u003e system: every card can be used for its gold value or for its special action, but only the cards you entomb for good leave your deck to become victory points. A constant dilemma takes hold: keep a powerful card to use its effect again, or bury it right away to lock in its points before the game ends? This tension between immediate efficiency and funerary wealth is what gives Valley of the Kings its bite.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis Premium Edition brings together the three standalone games in the series (the base game, Afterlife, and Last Rites) in a single box, along with six exclusive unique cards and extra components for \u003cstrong\u003eup to six players\u003c\/strong\u003e.
