(GAME SUMMARY)
|
|
|
| Drake says: "In Assyria, you play as a tribe of nomads in the deserts of Mesopotamia. The goal of each tribe is to survive (by gathering food cards) and to build wells and ziggurats. Players should aim to develop and move to attractive areas formed by the rivers, collecting resources for the survival of key villages. The game spans over three reigns, with a flood in between each reign. Good locations are coveted and opposing tribes seek to block you."

Description:
2000 BC. A new empire is about to emerge in the north of Mesopotamia. Nomadic tribes gather under the leadership of Assur, a city-state dedicated to the cult of the powerful mountain god. But life in the desert is precarious, and before ruling the world, one must first learn to survive.
Players take on the role of the chiefs of nomadic tribes. They travel the desert to find food and build wells and ziggurats. During the three reigns which make up the game, they try to spread the domination of their tribe over Assyria..
