Hipatia is a majority card game, as disciples and helpers of the ancient philosopher you will help Hipatia achieving her great advances and life goals. Also you will have to be careful with the hate of Cirilo, patriarch of Alexandria, as you are in the middle of a political struggle between him and Orestes, the imperial prefect. Draw too much attention from the patriarch followers can end in your dead (and elimination from the game). Use the powers in the cards to bypass your rivals in becoming the best disciple of Hipatia (alive). —description from the designer
