Your mission? Choose the right tiles, one at a time, without being able to go back. The twist is that there are 15 different artifact sets, and when the last piece of a set is taken, whoever has the largest collection of that item scores more, with second place getting half the points. But beware! There are also tie-breaker tiles and those that allow you to steal artifacts from opponents, adding an extra layer of strategy and interaction. Tutankhamen is a game that shines through its simplicity and the depth it hides. It's the kind of game you learn in minutes but makes you think hard about every move.
