You are the leader of an ancient civilization, just beginning to establish itself on the continent. A wide world lies around you, filled with verdant forests, putrid swamps, towering mountains, and azure oceans, all with resources ripe for the taking. Using these resources, you must raise your civilization, constructing buildings and marshaling armies to overwhelm the barbarian villages around you. Of course, you must never forget whence your power comes, and by making your offerings to the gods, you can obtain what the physical world cannot give you.
Designed by Sébastien Dujardin (Troyes), Deus is a game of civilization building for two to four players. Each player commands a small collection of peoples with great ambitions, and you must guide your culture to greatness. You will construct ships, buildings of science, granaries, temples, and massive armies, and by using these buildings you can gather the victory points you need to win the game. As you build, you'll form a larger tableau, which in turn allows your civilization to become more powerful with every passing year.
Deus: Egypt, the first expansion for Deus, adds the wonders of the ancient Egyptian pharaohs to this rich strategy game with six completely new decks of buildings. The fertile basin of the Nile brings new challenges and opportunities for a skilled and able leader, but a wise ruler must never forget that all blessings begin with the gods. Plus, new card effects and unique temples add fresh variety to each player's journey to bring the structure and safety of civilization to this ancient world.
