Kevin L. ★★★★★

The deluxe components in this standalone edition are gorgeous — the ancient civilization boards feel sturdy and the artwork really pulls you into the theme. Took a couple rounds to grasp the strategy, but once it clicked I didn't want to stop.

Thomas ★★★★★

Played this three times already and the civilization-building decisions stay tense right up to the last round. The deluxe board and thicker tiles make setup way less fiddly than my old copy. Solo variant works surprisingly well too.

Ava ★★★★★

The Deluxe components really shine once you get past the initial learning curve—the civilization-building mechanics flow surprisingly well once everyone grasps the turn order. We’ve had it to the table three nights in a row and the replayability keeps pulling us back in.
