A series of devastating tornadoes, unleashed by enemy mages in the recent war has left all the king's castles in ruin. Only the foundations of these once magnificent monuments remain. He has charged his sons with rebuilding his castles and promised the throne to the one who can rebuild the tallest and largest castles.

Each prince has 6 knights to supervise the building. Two or more princes may work together on a castle with their knights competing to control the highest towers of the castle. Once e ach year, the king will tour the castles, to judge the progress of each son. After he finishes the third tour, he will choose his successor and the winner!

How high can you go ?

This is a good game for two players, and with 3 or 4 I expect that the chances to be devious would be greater (but there's nothing so satisfying as moving your knights into someone else's castle and scoring points on the back of their hard work !)

Didn't really see the point of the king, as the bonus for having the king in your castle was tiny, compared to the points you could score for building the plastic equivalent of Milton Keynes !

Relatively straightforward to learn, and simple to play. Hugely enjoyable.
