Product Description

The competition of the builders continues in Imhotep: The Duel!

In this two-player version of the award-winning Imhotep board game, players take on the roles of Nefertiti and Akhenaten, one of ancient Egypt's most famous royal couples.
Game pieces must be cleverly placed so that players can unload the most valuable tiles from the six boats.
While this is happening, each player builds their own four monuments in order to gain as many points as possible.

Site Boards: Each player gets their own set of site boards and all of the site boards are double sided (giving players numerous ways to setup and play the game).
Tokens: There are five sets of tokens that players can collect: Four sets correspond to the site boards and one set gives players an extra benefit on a later turn.
These benefits give the game layers of strategy.
The Manual: Learning how to play Imhotep: The Duel is easy with the 8 page full-color manual.
The illustrated manual provides detailed instructions for game play and includes examples of potential scenarios.
Game Attributes: Player interaction is very high in Imhotep: The Duel because every choice you make affects the other player.
You can try to anticipate the other player's moves by strategically placing your pieces, but there is still a little luck in what tiles are revealed.

Place One Meeple: On a turn, players can choose 1 of 3 actions. Option 1, players may take one of their meeples from their repository and place it on an unoccupied harbor space.
Unload One Boat: Option 2, players may unload one boat that is moored at the end of a row or column.
This is how you acquire tiles that are then placed on your site boards.
Play One Action Token: Option 3, play one action token. Action tokens give a player an extra benefit on their turn.
Players can use these tokens to take additional actions, modify the layout of the game, or pick one token directly off a boat.
End of Game Scoring: Each player adds up the points they have earned on each of their site boards.
The player with the most points wins.
