About the game

What you do in a play session

Prepare for an epic twist in the world of Kemet! In Kemet: Seth, Ancient Egypt plunges into a new conflict as a dark, jackal-headed god, the fearsome Seth, awakens in full fury. This time, the game shifts gears: instead of internal squabbles, players must unite in a desperate battle against this divine threat. This expansion introduces a 'one vs. all' mode for up to six players, where the majority cooperate to stop Seth's corruption and cruelty, while Seth, controlled by one player, wields his unique powers and terrifying creatures to dominate the lands. Seth doesn't come alone; he brings his own board, exclusive divine powers, intervention cards, and an army of frightening creatures. To combat this threat, allied gods like Osiris offer their support, and new rules encourage cooperation among players, even allowing for mixed troops. Kemet: Seth adds more depth and new strategies, being compatible with other Kemet elements like the black pyramid and new divine intervention cards. It's a chance to test the alliance against an overwhelming power or succumb to the darkness.
