Catalogue information
Strategic Family Game: De Koningsburcht is an original strategic board game that runs surprisingly smoothly and still requires thinking. The game has accessible rules and does not take too long. This allows the game to be characterized as a somewhat heavier family game. The players construct buildings using different character cards that interact strongly with each other. With a keen insight into the tactics of the opponents, each player must find a good balance between money, building materials and victory points. Game sequence in a nutshell: Each player is a Builder, who has to make a tactical choice from several character cards each round. The characters influence each other, so that each round has a varied and surprising course. The Royal Castle ends with an exciting scoring. Only at the end it becomes clear who has the most victory points and thus has earned the king's favor. Introduction during SPIEL '08: The Royal Castle was simultaneously released in four languages. The Game Master publishes the Dutch version of the game that was developed in collaboration with Eggert Spiele. The game was launched at SPIEL 2008 in Essen, Germany. The Game Master distributes the special winter cards, which are used for the back of the game board. Special Winter Cards: A small expansion has been added directly to the basic game: if the players erect the castle in winter, they will encounter additional challenges and opportunities. With winter maps and even a separate winter board, De Koningsburcht has an exciting variant. Following on from De Koningsburcht, 6 extra winter cards will be issued, which will make the winter version of the game even more interesting. 2 game boards (recto / verso) 4 overview maps 23 construction drawings 28 game figures 4 point markers 83 wood building materials: - 20 sand mountains - 18 timber beams - 15 clay plates - 15 stone blocks - 15 silver bars 4 sets of cards of 8 character cards each 6 winter cards 1 starting player marker 65 gold pieces: - 51 x 1 - 8 x 3 - 6 x 5
