Descrizione: The Pyramid is very much alive! But unfortunately for you, so are its Inhabitants. You are Explorers entombed within the pyramid of Pharaoh Pepi l and need to discover your 4 Ankhs to reveal the secret exit in order to escape in this tactical suspenseful game.
The Pyramid Is Alive?
Yes; whilst you primarily control an Explorer, you are also responsible for controlling one of the Inhabitants, who are unhappy about your intrusion, and are trying to convert you into Lost Souls (the reanimated corpses of your fallen expedition team). The pyramid is also alive too and has an ever changing layout, thanks to the Wall Movement Spaces, which allow you to move up to 2 pieces of walls.
How Is It Suspenseful And Tactical?
The Explorer on your right is the only person to actively know where your Ankhs and secret exit are located on the map. You have to find them whilst avoiding the Inhabitants and any Lost Souls patrolling the pyramid. You can actively see where everyone is, meaning you know when you are being hunted down. Will they catch you before you get all your Ankhs and escape? With the wall movement squares, Entombed can be played with many different strategies, and no two games are ever the same. Do you go defensive and help keep your fellow Explorers alive? Possibly compromising your safety, but meaning there are less Lost Souls (and Inhabitants) hunting you down; do you go offensive? and try to open up paths to eliminate your fellow Explorers or do you actively convert yourself into a Lost Soul and try to activate the secondary win condition, where if no Explorer escapes, the Lost Soul(s) responsible for converting the most Explorers is declared the winner. Treading on a Wall Movement Space allows you to move 2 pieces of wall, allowing you to alter the pyramid layout and force your opponents to adjust their strategy.
Balancing Mechanics
Fall 1 Ankh behind and you can skip your turn to activate the Compass, which helps narrow down the exact location within your quarter of the map. Take damage and you can draw a Privilege card, which gives you a temporary advantage. Become a Lost Soul and you are still able to play as your character, albeit with a new win condition.
