## Overview

Men-Nefer is a mid-weight strategy board game designed by Germán P. Millán that immerses players in ancient Egyptian culture through worker placement and action selection mechanics. Featuring 215 wooden pieces, 189 tokens, and stunning artwork by Laura Bevon, it offers both solo and multiplayer modes with an estimated 60-minute playtime. Perfect for history buffs and strategic gamers seeking a rich, educational, and visually captivating experience.

## Description

In Men-Nefer you will relive one of the greatest periods of ancient Egypt, carrying out tasks typical to Egyptian culture: acquiring knowledge in the houses of life, navigating and trading on the Nile River, making offerings to the revered God, embalming the corpses of the nobles, erecting beautiful sphinxes and contributing to the construction of the Great Pyramid. In addition to this, you must be careful of how you make your way through this earthly world to be sure that Osiris will grant you passage to Aaru, the long-awaited heavenly paradise of the afterlife.

Review: Good medium weight euro - Great game for solo play. Art and theme are well integrated, quality components. Plenty of 'how to play' and 'gameplay session' videos online to ease learning curve.
Review: Great game. - Men Nefer is an excellent game. The action selection and scoring are unique in my experience and the game sets you up with both strategic and tactical decisions. The theming works pretty well and the game is simple to play, but hard to master. The only real barrier is the symbology, which is everywhere. Some of the symbols look very similar but, once you get it, it makes perfect sense. I wouldn't recommend this for new gamers, though. It's a mid-weight euro game, in my opinion, and I play a ton of heavy euro games, so it probably leans more mid-heavy. It's not a short game, by any means. Each player will have 27 turns, so you would have to average 1 minute per turn to hit an hour and a half with 3 players. I'm sure it speeds up with repeated plays, but there are a ton of decisions to be made, so I'm not sure we could ever hit that mark. Highly recommend.
