Description Edit | History

Saint Petersburg is a card game in which you acquire workers for income, build buildings for fame, and attract aristocrats to your city in order to gain the most fame at the end of the game.

Card game deals with 'gracious living along the river Neva: the baroque palaces, wide boulevards, and imposing bridges of St. Petersburg. On May 16th, 1703, Czar Peter laid the cornerstone for the first building. Quickly, glorious buildings were added, always being expanded, so that Nobility (as well as victory-bringing Fame Points) may want to move in. But to accomplish this, one needs merchants who can bankroll the necessary Rubles, or the glory is over. The competition isn't sleeping either, and can sometimes steal a desired card right out from under your nose.

3 DIY Player Screens and Rubles holder
I made these combination money holders and player screens because we got tired of having to hold the money in our hands during the game. I posted a [url=http://www.boardgamegeek.com/article/4783362#4783362]thread in the DIY forum[/url] explaining how I created this!! Here is a picture of the finished product!! [imageid=691243original]

2 5 Player St Petersburg Money Track
This cash tracking grid was inspired by the Money Grid submitted by Neville Ridley-Smith in January. It's designed to be printed on three sheets, then cut for each person to track their own. It now covers the expansion and goes as high as 60 without need of resorting to actual 20 Rubel notes.

5 Money grid
Shuffling the money in Saint Petersburg is too much of a chore. Place your second coloured token on this grid to keep track of your money. Speeds up the game making it more enjoyable! You can still use the 20 ruble notes on the rare occasions you need more than the 40 on the grid. Change it if you like - I'd like to see a nicer version if someone's willing to put some time in!
