Sobek: 2 Players
Sobek: 2 Players
Corruption always comes at a cost...
Sobek awaits the creation of a grand temple in his honor to be built in Faiyum. To support the construction, a huge market has emerged, bustling with rich goods. You and your opponent will vie to take advantage of this opportunity. Sobek will tip the scales of fate by offering up his favors to the least corrupt merchant!
Sobek is a 2-player game by acclaimed designers Bruno Cathala (7 Wonders Duel, Kingdomino, Five Tribes) and Sébastien Pauchon (Jaipur, Jamaica) in which players must form the best sets of goods, while cleverly controlling your opponent's options. A cast of colorful characters and pirogues can assist you along the way. But remember to avoid the temptation of corruption, lest you forget that corruption always comes at a cost...

Sent as a gift. I was told they liked it
Purchased this game with some Christmas Money. My wife and I played this game twice in about an hour, which included learning the rules. It is all about gathering tiles and selling them for points that will be counted at the end of the game. The different Characters give the game some secret twists that your opponent doesn't see coming. It is easy to learn and has enough strategy that you won't get board
Bought this for my husband and I and it was really fun. Does get old as there isnt much to the game but was able to play it quite a few times before he got sick of it.
