Immerse yourself in history with "Ezra and Nehemiah," a captivating board game that invites players to experience the dramatic return of the Israelites from exile and the monumental task of rebuilding Jerusalem. Travel back to the era of Cyrus the Great and Artaxerxes, where rich narratives unfold as you help restore an ancestral home.

Embark on a Historic Journey! Step into the shoes of influential figures like Ezra and Nehemiah as you kick off this thrilling adventure. The journey begins with Cyrus the Great's decree, granting the Israelite exiles the unique opportunity to return and build a magnificent temple for the Lord. Together, you’ll carefully lay down each brick, restoring the heart of Jerusalem.

Game Mechanics
Your mission? Accumulate the most victory points (VP) by skillfully constructing the temple, rebuilding city walls and gates, and educating returning exiles in the Torah. Uncover additional strategies by enhancing your land, exploring outside the city boundaries, or tending to the altar’s fire, ensuring the spiritual flame stays alive day and night. Throughout your quest, the prophetic insights of Haggai and Zechariah will guide your every move.

Gameplay Structure
Experience this epic journey over three enthralling weeks (rounds). Manage resources, deploy workers, and wield your hand of cards to contribute to the restoration of Jerusalem. Each week wraps up with a Sabbath day of rest—an essential moment to reflect on your achievements and check your supplies.

After three Sabbaths, the game culminates, and the player with the highest accumulated points will be celebrated as the champion. Take up the challenge to rebuild Jerusalem in "Ezra and Nehemiah." Are you ready to lead your people to victory and make history?
