Builders of Blankenburg

Players: 2 - 6 • Playing Time: 60 - 90 • Age: 14+

Blankenburg is back! The classic game of bidding and building returns with a new, second edition. A new count has arrived to oversee the tiny hamlet of Blankenburg. Two to six players compete to build up the town and earn prestige in the eyes of the count. Do you have what is takes to become the master builder and earn the key to the city? Featuring the novel citizen track, you need to pay attention not just to what you build, but for whom you are building. Each citizen has different interests and will stay at different structures. Only by catering to the citizens of the town will you ensure a steady stream of silver with which to build.
