Product Description

Caesar and Cleopatra are locked in a struggle to determine the amount of independence Egypt will have. The decision lies in the hands of the powerful patricians. The players, as Caesar and Cleopatra, use their influence and special actions to win patricians to their side. When a vote of confidence is called, the player with the larger influence wins the voice of a patrician. Each voice brings one victory point. There are additional victory points for the majority in a patrician group, for the influence of a whole group and for a secret influence bonus. Whoever earns the most victory points, chooses the fate of Egypt and wins the game. Players: 2 Ages: 10 and up Playing Time: 30-40 minutes

This is an entertaining card game for two players. A fair amount of strategy can be employed in how the players use their infuence cards. The object is to control more political allies than your opponent. You can play two influence cards face up for your opponent to see or one face down per turn. Obviously keeping your opponent uncertain about your strength is important and faking them out comes into play as well. A philosopher card can also throw the results into turmoil when it is deployed. Strategy also comes into play through the use of action cards whose order and when to use is controlled by the player. The game is somewhat complicated to explain briefly and our first two or three times playing was learning the rules but after those first few games play became smooth. The game is perfect for when you want to play something that doesn't take too long. Our longest game has been about 40 minutes. The game doesn't teach you anything about the time period other than the titles of some of the political members/players of the time period so if that is what you are looking for this is the wrong item. The illustrations on the cards are very well done though and lend an element of atmosphere of the period to the game.

The boyfriend has significantly more experience (and expertise!) with boardgames and well, games in general, compared to me. This is a simple enough game that we are on a roughly equal footing when playing, but still fun and interesting, and the names on the cards led to much joking around.

I like the way that we learn something about the past a some historic people. I think it's a very intresting game. Very original too, never seen it before.
