Containing a number or new modules including: a 6 player mode, a solo mode and two new tile colors, Amber and Amethyst, with various other modules, content and quality-of-life components to be announced soon. Rise of the Gods is the culmination of the effort of Kemet's design duo formed of Jacques Bariot and Guillaume Montiage. The french designers took the opportunity to bring new features to Blood and Sand, while drawing inspirations from the Ta-Seti and Seth expansions of the first edition of Kemet to imagine the two tile colors.

Thanks for the run through, very clear and informative 👍
Glad it was helpful!
Your thoughts mirror mine. I don't care for a big box and certainly not solo play and I'm not sure that I'd ever choose to play this with 6. I'm definitely keen on the new tiles and the gods. I don't feel like the game needs a bunch of new mechanisms that significantly change the game the way you see with other games' big expansions that just make for a longer game. The game length is just right for me. Other than mechanisms introduced with new power tiles of course.
I think similar to what someone else said - all of these "mini" expansions are too costly to package on their own (e.g. shipping just tiles to backers) so it's all been bundled together, but it's created a bit of an issue that certain elements are for certain people so people are balking at the overall cost when they are only interested in 2/6 things.
Any idea when this will come out in retail ?
I'm not 100% sure if it will, but it's best to check the crowd funding page for the expected delivery date!
I backed Blood and Sand, but I’m skipping this. I just want a small box expansion. The big box adds significantly to the cost - both for storage and shipping cost. I’m not going to pay $135 for an expansion.
That's totally fair. I think almost universally people would have been happier having separate tiers, as probably 90% primary want the new tiles and not much else.
@@BoardOfItReviews Yes, definitely would love to have the tiles. Wish Matagot would listen to those of us who would like to back at a simpler level. I realize that they can’t piecemeal out every out every component or module , but there’s gotta be some middle ground. Anyway, I appreciate your concise coverage of the expansion!
This looks awesome, kemet is one of oue faves, but would like to buy only the two new color sets of tiles, the whole thing is kinda expensive
Yea that seems to be what everyone is saying! Totally get that, I think it comes with a fair few things, but they are not all things everyone wants (big box, solo mode, etc.) making it a tough proposition.
overpriced and a lot of bloat in this KS, why they couldnt just do the expansion without the big box ill never know, and not to do it on retail is a big mistake. shame as we really enjoy kemet
Yep this seems to be the general consensus. It's a shame you can't just get the tiles alone!
$126 aus then another $35 postage. Quite ridiculous for an expansion, I get the 'big box' thing, but this increases price dramatically. If I played Kemet a lot then maybe, but a few times a year nearly $170 not worth it for me unfortunately. And that's with the moderate/high probability the expansion will make the game worse than original play...? Thanks for the vid 😊😊
You are most welcome!
