Nile River
The Pharaoh has demanded all cities to be connected to one river. However the gods of the rivers are in constant debate, so they can not touch the same position. (however they can cross diagonally via bridges)
Connect the new cities to the river sources before the source overflows. You can only connect neighbours.
Controls
- Left Click to spawn/place connection
- Right Click to cancel building a connection
- M&U Mute&Umute audio
Normally I join Alakajams in a bigger group, but this time I went completely solo. Thus the very basic graphics. Had some other things to do on the weekend, so gameplay might be a bit buggy in some places and som QoL features are missing.

A fun little game that feels like it was supposed to be a multiplayer game where you take turns building your rivers.
I had to experiment with the game to understand the mechanics and I'm still not sure I grasped them fully. I don't quite understand the source overflow mechanic. It seems like I have a time limit to connect a colored river if there is a colored dot, but not if not.
I didn't understand the overflow warning bars at first. I think they could do with color coding so the player knows which bar concerns with river.
I think the gameplay is pretty innovative and challenges you to find good strategies. I like that!
