Ankh: Gods of Egypt
Reddit take
Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.
Pros
- Ankh has a more chess like quality to it and not the feeling of commanding armies; but it's the closest entry from the Eric Lang games and very good.
- Ankh works extremely well at 2 and 3. ... Ankh would definitely be my rec based on your criteria
- Ankh is probably the best of these at 2. it's decent at 3.
- Ankh (2/3 is best)
- Id go for ankh
Cons
- I’ve only played Ankh once…and it was the worst experience I’ve ever had playing a board game.
- Ankh is like a chess game in abstract but it’s eventually gets repetitive I guess. Production great and probably get a good dozen games out of it in it own. I enjoyed the merged mechanic, interesting novelty.
- If Ankh was the only game left on earth, I’d use it for kindling.

Ankh is absolutely the best 2 player dudes on a map game ever made. I own it and only play it at 2p

Im probably the minority here, but I highly prefer Ankh over Kemet. Ankh is easy to teach and very tactical. Merging mechanic is controversial, but my group enjoys it.

Parent context: If Ankh was the only game left on earth, I’d use it for kindling. Significantly prefer Kemet, with the caveat that I haven’t played Ankh at two. Reply: It’s best at 2.
