Cairo (2002)

About Cairo

Game about building pyramids. Your ship sails up and down the Nile, while you flick blocks, big blocks, and dice off the top of the ship hoping to get them to land at building sites. Then you can use blocks collected at the sites to build pyramids for more points, and the majority of blocks on a site gets the most points. Also, a die chooses which finger you have to use to flick the blocks. Kind of a golf/billiards/El Grande hybrid.

Mechanics: Dice Rolling
