Idle Pyramid

Cut the stone, haul it, lay it. Build the pyramids of ancient Egypt on a living 3D construction site, idle or active. SMALL TO GREAT Start with Djoser's Step Pyramid, then Sneferu's Red Pyramid, and finally the Great Pyramid of Khufu: about 2.3 million blocks, 210 courses, 146.6 m. The Great Pyramid uses the commonly cited count; the other two are estimates from the Great Pyramid's blocks per volume. WATCH THE WORK UP CLOSE Swipe left or right to turn the site and pinch to zoom. See stonecutters striking chisels, sled crews hauling up the ramp, and builders levering blocks into place. The camera flies to every worker you hire. TAP TO CUT STONE Tap the screen to cut a block and earn gold on the spot. Hire workers and upgrade tools to widen the flow: cut, haul, build. The slowest job glows so you know where to hire next. PROGRESS WHILE AWAY Work continues for up to 4 hours while the app is closed, at a slower pace. Collect it when you come back. PYRAMID FACTS Each milestone brings a short fact about the kings, the quarries and the people who built them. ADS AND PURCHASES - A banner ad is shown at the bottom.
