About the game

What you do in a play session

If you've ever found yourself thinking, "what if Kemet had another layer of surprise?", get ready! Kemet: New Power Tiles adds three new power tiles to the already vibrant Egyptian battlefield, originally released as promos in 2015. The blue tile, 'Protective Aura,' makes you immune to damage outside of combat – perfect for those who like to dodge trouble. The red tile, 'Night Expedition,' allows a stealthy movement for a priest along the Path to Ta-Seti during the night phase, ignoring bonuses and tokens along the way. And the white one, 'Reminiscence,' is a tactical ace: if the opponent uses a Divine Intervention card, you can snatch one of them for your hand! These additions bring new strategies and twists, ensuring every game of Kemet remains fresh and challenging. Remember, to use these new additions, you need the Kemet: Ta-Seti expansion. It's a small component upgrade but has a huge impact on replayability and the tactics you can employ. If you're a fan of Kemet and want more options to surprise your opponents or defend yourself in unexpected ways, these tiles are a great addition.
