Kellia: The Risk of the Desert

Kellia is a cooperative board game where you play as hermits in the Egyptian desert working together to survive and build your little desert shelters.

What I Liked: I particularly like cooperative games, and Kellia is pretty chill. It’s not so complicated that new players can’t contribute quickly, and for a game about survival, it has a healthy focus on getting your daily bread, not preparing for nerve-wracking random possibilities that might jump on you at any moment.

What I Didn't Like: Though experienced players can play as individual hermits with special abilities, I wish there were more maps or scenarios for better replayability.

What’s Unique: The game was made by the ecumenical Taize Community to share the cooperative spirit of monastic life!
