Product Overview
A game of intrigue awaits in this strategic social game of characters and districts, all the content of Citadels Deluxe now sized to fit a travel-friendly package!
You have a rare opportunity. As one of the kingdom's great builders, you have been commissioned to build a new city from the ground up. If your city surpasses those of the other builders, you will earn the title of master builder and achieve lasting renown.
Citadels is a card game in which you and your opponents vie to build the most magnificent medieval city. Designed by Bruno Faidutti and first published in 2000, Citadels has become one of the most popular and greatest games of the modern era. It boasts a thoroughly approachable mechanical framework that is easy to learn, yet rich in deception, strategy, and intrigue.
Scheme Your Way to the Top
To be selected for the coveted post of Master Builder, you must impress the monarchy by constructing a majestic medieval metropolis. In Citadels, players use the local citizens to acquire gold and build districts to complete their city. Players draft characters each round, looking for those who provide the desired special abilities to further develop their cities—or hinder their opponents' efforts. Hire the elusive Thief and pick one of your rival’s pockets, or commission the Artist to beautify your districts and increase their value. Plot, scheme, and deceive your way to the top as you attempt to predict your opponents’ actions and foil their plans. Only the best city will earn its steward the title of Master Builder.
A Revised Classic
Designed by Bruno Faidutti and originally released in 2000, Citadels is considered one of the great card games of the modern era. The Citadels Deluxe edition expanded on Citadels Classic, changing the art and adding more characters and districts. This new revised edition contains all the great content included in Citadels Deluxe, but is scaled to fit a smaller, more portable box.
