Quebec, February 10, 2010 - "During archaeological excavations, an Egyptologist discovered a board game hidden in a trunk. This game was designed by a pharaoh of ancient Egypt. At parties held in his palace, Pharaoh asked his guests to build a pyramid-shaped figure with hieroglyphics carved on tablets. Pharaoh Gold covered the player who was the first to complete his pyramid."

It was around this story that Martin Tremblay from Chicoutimi, has created the Pyramid of the Pharaoh, a brand new card game that combines luck and strategy.

This idea he had in mind for a few years: "I started imagining a game on the theme of the pyramids and I did some research on the subject. A card game lend itself entirely to what I imagined as a concept and I knew that this type of game could attract many generations. "Says the designer.

It must be said that Martin Smith is not his first souls on board game: to him that we Gangster and Gangster 2 Pro, two very popular games, which have also been called Monopoly 2000s.

Marc Fournier, Director of Research and Development at the Éditions Gladius, saw the potential of the game from the outset and has renewed its confidence in the Saguenay designer: "It is not easy to find a game that will interest any the world, much younger than older people, and I think that Martin has managed this feat. In tests, people wanted to play with immediately and asked us where they could buy the game, and when it is available. This is a good index. "
