Description:The secret pastime of the ancient Egyptians has finally been revealed. Pyramad will fascinate you as well with its intriguing combination of luck and skill. As you will discover, the real curse of the Pharaohs was that they could not stop playing this game!
Pyramad is simple to play, yet endlessly challenging. The object of the game is to build a complete pyramid from randomly drawn blocks. You must match the hieroglyphics along each side of the blocks in order to place them together. Continue playing by stacking them up on the next level of the pyramid. If you can reach the top, you win!
There are actually two different games contained within Pyramad. The "Game of the Nile" and the more advanced "Game of Pharaoh" are sure to entertain players of all abilities. Also included is an interactive guide book which illustrates a sample game and some basic strategies to assist your play.
Beautifully rendered authentic Egyptian graphics make this game a true work of art. Pyramad is a magical new experience for every kind of game player that will captivate novice and expert alike. It is a must-have for solitaire or mahjong tile fans and anyone else who appreciates a really great game. Like the pyramids of Egypt, Pyramad is a timeless classic.
Some teachers have written that they could use it in their Egyptian studies as a student motivator.
