DESCRIPTION

In the early 2000s, Reiner Knizia created some of the most remarkable Eurogames ever published. At the tail end of that run, we got Amun-Re, an Egyptian-themed game with a clever auction mechanism. The goal is to build pyramids, and there are rewards during the course of the game for control of various areas.

At the end of each turn there's an opportunity to make a donation to the God; the top contributor gets the best reward and becomes "Blessed of Amun-Re" and anyone who doesn't contribute is mercilessly taunted.

It's a better game than average, though it isn't the best of Knizia's work. Still, it has a place on the shelf. It's recently been republished, but we have the original edition.
