Faiyum (1-5 players) is a strategic deck building game where to please your Pharaoh, you and other advisors transform the Faiyum Basin from crocodile filled swampland into a fertile farming region. With a simple ruleset but dozens of unique action cards, Faiyum is wonderfully easy to learn, but difficult to master! Every game plays out different due to the randomness of what cards become available when, so you'll often have to work on the fly coming up with your own unique strategy!
