About the Game

The heretic pharaoh Akhenaten has abandoned you and the other old gods. He worships only his new Sun God, Aten. The people follow their leader blindly, leaving you weak and crumbling.

By influencing the six Domains of Egypt, you and your rivals will slowly take back some of your powers. Through common spells and mighty enchantments, you will eventually have power enough to bring forth an eclipse powerful enough to stop the Sun God and his favored pharaoh. All while struggling to be the most powerful god by the end.

Deities of the Old Kingdom is a puzzle game about manipulating a dice grid to gain the resources you need.

Each turn, you'll roll three dice and push some of them into the 5x5 dice grid. Connect as many symbols as possible to gain the resources you need. Spend your resources to unlock enchantments and - by the very end - your own unique Eclipse spell.
