About the game
What you do in a play session
If you’re a fan of 7 Wonders and want a bit more, the Nimrod expansion will surprise you. It doesn’t come alone: you need the base game, the Leaders expansion, and the Babel expansion to play. What does Nimrod bring? A set of leader cards with unique powers that generate money and extra victory points when building the Tower of Babel. Each player receives a different leader card, creating strategic variation and making each game feel unique. The open‑draft mechanic lets you pick cards from a common pool, while set collection helps you maximize your resources. Simultaneous action selection keeps the tension high, as everyone makes moves at the same time. Players 2‑7 can gather, and the typical duration is about 40 minutes, but it can stretch with more players. The game’s weight is 2.5, indicating it’s easy to set up and not too bulky. In short, Nimrod is a fun bonus for those who already own both expansions and want more challenges and strategic variety in 7 Wonders.
