Description
Architects of the West Kingdom is a game of medieval city building and economic strategy, where 1 to 5 players compete to impress their King by constructing landmarks and advancing the Archbishop's cathedral. As royal architects, you'll need to collect raw materials, hire apprentices, and manage your workforce, all while keeping an eye out for rival architects who will stop at nothing to slow your progress. In this 60 to 80 minute game, you'll make moral decisions that will impact your virtue and ultimately your victory points. Will you remain virtuous or take a few underhand deals to get ahead? The game ends when a set number of constructions are completed, and only then will your virtue be judged. With its engaging gameplay and medieval theme, Architects of the West Kingdom is a fun and challenging experience for fans of city building and economic games.
