A building game with an Arabian flavour, the premise is simple; collect money in four currencies until you can afford to pay the best artisans from a country to expand your palace by building a tower or garden etc. However considerable planning is necessary as mistakes are very costly and the artisans you employ will diddle you if you let them. Great fun and like so many of the best games, is easy to learn and hard to master. Fully deserving of Game of the Year 2003 and an absolute must for collectors and families alike.
Alhambra has good rules for 2 players.
