In An den Ufern des Nils, players attempt to grow their crops on the banks of the Nile. As the river ebbs and floods, players spend action points to buy & sow seed in the fields, grow and then harvest their crops. Water tiles serve to flood the fields and players score most points for producing the freshest produce. Originally produced for the 1992 Hippodice Spieleautorenwettbewerb (Hippodice game author competition).
