About This Game
What Ancients Begat is a complete (~15 hour) game of family generations surviving the rise of western civilization. Survival is the ultimate goal. The sub-goals, you choose, build their story.Experience an abstract telling of the lives of our earliest recorded ancestors. Part board game, part machine, part nod to computer games of yore, it begins with a simple mechanic. Spend tokens to traverse the wheel of life. Earn tokens by tempting the jaws of death. Then, like layers upon a pearl, game play expands, introducing fresh tactics and strategies which, turn by turn, drive a sophisticated, emergent narrative. How you play defines the lives of one family's generations through the changing ages.
An enormous tableau of ancient western culture awaits your exploration:
- Core Mechanic - Back and forth tactics, across four social boundaries, to win legend points.
- Family Strategy - Romance. Raise children. Rite of Passage.
- Family Drama - Tales in the life. Sibling rivalry. Failed branches. Graveyard of ancestry.
- Grand Legends - Earned over generations, they strengthen your family: Discoveries and Invention. Social Advancement. Heroics.
- Ruling Games - City Administration. Warring Kingdoms. Imperial Senate.
- The Challenges of an Age - Special for each social level. Survive and overcome, to enter a new age.

I liked it, but it has more of the feel of a board game than a simulation-type game. It is turn-based. You have to guide your family through many generations during the progress of an ancient civilization. I especially liked the mini-stories that appear periodically (I guess maybe about every 10-12 turns).
One thing to be aware of: The game was originally supposed to be the first of 7 games to be played in sequence, but the others never got developed. So that means that when you reach the end of the ancient world, the game abruptly ends. It tells you that you can continue the history of your family in the next game (the next "grand step") but of course you can't. I really wished that I could; I was eager to see my family continue to succeed.
In spite of that limitation, it was a fun game. I got it when it was on sale; maybe I would have liked it a bit less if I had paid full price...
Several reviewers said things like "if there was a crowd-funding campaign to get the next game written, I would support it." I would like to add my vote for that too.
