In this new board game designed by Bruno Cathala and Ludovic Maublanc, players compete to build an ancient Egyptian palace, while resisting the lure of corruption. The game includes a 3-D palace that players really compete to build as they strive to become the wealthiest of Cleopatra’s architects. But the most corrupt architect will be sacrificed to Cleopatra’s sacred crocodile. Cleopatra and the Society of Architects is for 3 to 5 players and takes approximately 60 minutes to play. It is due to launch in the United States in June 2006. The German version was released in the beginning of 2006.
