Description
San Juan is a city building card game that's easy to learn and fun to play, designed by Andreas Seyfarth and published in 2004. In this game, 2 to 4 players take turns selecting roles that trigger events, such as producing goods or constructing buildings, with the role selector getting a special privilege. The game is all about building and managing your city, with cards representing production buildings, special powers, and victory points. With a playtime of 45 to 60 minutes, San Juan is a great game for a casual game night. The game mechanics, including action drafting and set collection, add depth and strategy to the gameplay. Players must manage their hand of cards carefully, using them to build or produce goods, and the first player to build 12 buildings wins the game. With its unique blend of city building and economic management, San Juan is a great choice for fans of card games and strategy games alike.
