Description
The city of York is in a state of urgency, as Viking raids threaten to destroy the newly built buildings. The king has called upon skilled architects to design a protective outer wall, and only the best design will be chosen. In Walls of York, 2 to 4 players take on the role of these architects, competing to build the most effective defensive barrier around their city map. Players roll a die to determine which types of walls to use, and must enclose their city, including the required buildings, all within a short 30 minutes. The game is easy to learn, but challenging to master, as players must adapt to the Viking raids that will destroy their walls at the end of the first age, forcing them to rebuild in the second age. The player with the most coins at the end of the game will be hailed as the greatest architect, making Walls of York a fun and exciting city building experience.
