Ancient Knowledge
Heirs to an exceptional knowledge that has survived the ages, it is up to you to preserve the vestige of your civilization. Ancient Knowledge is a strategic card game in which you erect monuments and build artefacts to pass on your knowledge. Time will make your constructions ephemeral, so make the right decision, because all knowledge is doomed to disappear…
Gameplay
It’s up to you to find the best synergies before the decline of the emblematic monuments you have constructed. You’ll see Mexican pyramids and the Sphinx of Giza. You will pass through the cities of Tiwanaku and Babylon. Only the cleverest builder will shine through the ages and seize victory.
You must extract as much Knowledge as possible from the monuments you build before they fall into decline. Each monument that you put into play will progress in a timeline until the point where the card will leave the game. The Knowledge it still contains will become cumulative negative points at the end of the game. It’s up to you, therefore, to play buildings that interact with each other in order to maximize this recovery of Knowledge.
In this game, your only enemy is time. Prove to your opponents that you are the worthy representative of your Legacy! Will your monuments withstand the trial of time?
Summarised
Rémi Mathieu offers us here a game that is both refined and complex, which thrives on its own diversity. With 144 unique builder cards, the games are hardly alike and strategies must always be inspired by the fleeting possibilities offered by the board.
