	Description Edit \| History

A new castle is being built for the king, and lots of workers are coming from far away to make their contribution.
Each player is a master builder, who will have to make a tactical choice from a number of character cards each turn. But watch out, the character cards also cause interaction, making for a surprising and varied game. Only when the points are counted at the end of the game, the victor will be known!

Artwork from Michael Menzel.
