About the game
This game has been published by dV Giochi as a reward for winning the 2018/2019 edition of the Gioco Inedito – Best Unpublished game contest. Powered by Lucca comics & Games and dV Giochi, the contest aims to identify the best new card game design from all prototypes received and to reward it by publishing the game in a fully professional and high-quality format, overseen directly by dV Giochi. All prototypes submitted must conform to the technical and style requirements, fixed components and a given theme which changes every year. Everybody can join the contest and this is a great opportunity for emerging game designers to see their idea published. For more information: [email protected] www.luccacomicsandgames.com As happens every year, the dynasties of the penguins of Giza challenge each other to build the most impressive penguin pyramid in Egypt. In order to do so, they have to pick the most suitable penguins to build their structure while eyeing the goals set by the pharaohs. They must balance the priority of choosing the best penguins with the strategic impact of the actions they can perform. You don't need dexterity or brute force: the smartest architect will prevail!

Some setups, rules and scoring details may still vary by player count, so check your edition’s rulebook for the exact configuration.
The catalogue lists Penguinramids for ages 8 and up. This is the publisher’s recommendation and reflects reading demands, rule complexity and small components rather than theme alone.
