Description

In the medieval world of Patrician, wealthy families are on a mission to outdo each other by building the most magnificent towers, and as a master builder, you're looking to profit from their vanity. You'll build these towers floor by floor, trying to position yourself in the right place at the right time to take credit for making them look good. With a simple set of rules to learn, you'll be competing with 2 to 5 players to be the most successful builder in just 50 minutes. You'll play cards to add tower pieces to different cities, each with its own set of towers to complete. The player with the most pieces in each tower will score points when the city is completed. But that's not all - you'll also be collecting portraits from influential families to earn extra points at the end of the game. With its unique blend of area majority, hand management, and set collection mechanics, Patrician is a game of strategic fun that's easy to learn and quick to play.
