Description
The Gardens of the Alhambra is a strategic board game where 2 to 4 players compete to earn the most victory points. Designed by Dirk Henn, this abstract strategy game is easy to learn, making it accessible to new players. The game takes place over 45 to 60 minutes, during which players take turns placing tiles with all four player colors onto the board. As players place tiles, they must carefully consider their moves to maximize their points while minimizing those of their opponents. The goal is to surround victory point markers and capture them, but ties will disqualify players, so the next highest color total will earn the points. With its simple rules and deep strategy, The Gardens of the Alhambra is a fun and engaging game that challenges players to think critically and outmaneuver their opponents.
