## Description
Get ready for an adventure in the depths of a pharaoh's tomb with Monsters of Egypt! You and your friends are adventurers searching for the legendary Pharaoh's Crystal, but beware: the place is full of monsters, traps, and hidden treasures. The game is cooperative but with a sneaky twist – if your character dies, you switch sides and start controlling the tomb's creatures against the other players! The double-sided board offers two different tombs to explore, with walls you can blast through, ladders to climb, and chests to open. Every turn brings new surprises, whether it's a monster appearing or a treasure being revealed. There's even an escape mode where the ceiling starts collapsing, and you must run for your lives! Who will escape with the crystal?

## FAQ
### How many players is ideal?
Works best with 3-5. With 6 it can get chaotic, and with 2 you lose some of the betrayal fun.

### Is it hard to learn?
No, the rules are straightforward. The complexity is more about strategy than mechanics.

### Does it have replay value?
Yes! The tombs are different, items appear randomly, and dynamics change as players become monsters.

### What's the difference between game modes?
Exploration Mode is more relaxed for learning. Escape Mode turns it into a race against time as the ceiling collapses!

### Is it kid-friendly?
Depends on the kid! It has monsters and betrayal but nothing too scary. Ages 10+ should enjoy it.
