About the Game

Path to Yaaru, a.k.a. イアルへの道 (pronounced "Iaru he no Michi"), refers to the Egyptian heavenly paradise of the Fields Of Aaru.

This is a card-drafting game set in Ancient Egypt in which you head to Yaaru, the promised land, with help from the Egyptian gods. The card-drafting system has a twist in that you may not freely pick any card. Hence, while advanced players may plan deeply beforehand to control the later stages of the game, beginners may simply focus on the current state and pick from the smaller choices. Who would be the first to Yaaru, passing the obstacles alongside the path?

With cute illustrations, the game should appeal to a broader audience. The game is published in Japanese, with English rules available online.

Publisher's summary: 古代エジプトで神様達の手助けを借りながら楽園(イアル)を目指すドラフトゲームです。 途中にある関門を抜けつつ、最初に楽園にたどり着ける人は誰でしょうか? 通常のドラフトルールではなく、ピックできるカードに制限があるという少し変わったシステムを採用しています。 このシステムにより、上級者はその後の状況をコントロールすることを目指し深く考えることが出来、初心者は現状の選択肢を良く見比べてピックすることが出来ます。 可愛いイラストもあり、幅広いそうに遊んでもらえるゲームになっています。
