The grand pharaoh Khufu admired the pyramid from across the sands. The stones reflected the full moon as if the pyramid were its own light source. “Your work exceeds my expectations, brother,” he said.

 

At the table, the vizier Ankhaf rolled up the papyrus containing the plans. It was good to hear such praise of his life’s work. He stood, bowed and said, “I am humbled that you think so, your majesty.”

One Card Wonder is a game of gathering resources and building one of the great wonders of the ancient world! Build support structures to build your wonder more efficiently. But be careful, time spent building support is time not building your wonder!

 

Be the first to complete your wonder to gain the respect of the world!

Description

In One Card Wonder, players begin the game with a card containing one of the world’s ancient wonders or other architectural marvels.

Each turn, players produce resources, trade them or claim them from the supply. These are used to perform the work of building the wonder. Players may also choose to use resources to build infrastructure that can help accelerate the building of their wonder.

A player’s leader will help direct the work, or slow the opponents.

The first player to complete their wonder wins!
