In Papyria, you'll guide an emerging civilization in 1500 BC Mesopotamia. Send wanderers and ships to expand territory, build temples, cities, and mines, and develop inventions along the banks of the Tigris and Euphrates rivers. As your civilization grows, you'll earn points through multiple paths, but limited knowledge restricts how much you can gain at once—so you must balance exploration, growth, and wisdom to achieve lasting glory.
Combining tile-layering, resource management, set collection, and engine building, Papyria offers a satisfying blend of mechanics. The invention of writing expanded humanity's imagination, and Papyria captures that pivotal moment in a refreshing strategic experience.
