📖 About This Game

Perilous Pyramids is a competitive multiplayer card game in which players assume the roles of archeologists each racing to the center chamber of a pyramid. Each player builds their own side of the pyramid using ten face-down chamber cards. Players clear chambers by playing resource cards from their hand that meet or exceed the difficulty of the chamber. These same resource cards can be used to make the opponents' chambers even harder to overcome, swap revealed chamber cards, cancel a played card and more. The first player to clear their pyramid completely and clear the final central chamber wins the game. Game-play is fast and aggressive, as the game encourages players to sabotage the efforts of their opponents.
