You are a medieval ruler trying to complete your city before your opponents can build theirs. Expand you city by adding new districts, but be sure to invest wisely: Some districts are more valuable than others, but cost more gold to build.

There is more to ruling a city than gold, however. Lords, ladies, and other nobility all have a role to play. The game changes each turn as each player secretly chooses a new role - the Assassin, Thief, Magician, King, Bishop, Merchant, Architect, or Warlord - and the power that comes with it.

This edition of CITADELS includes 11 brand new expansion cards by the original game designer. These cards have never been published in any previous editions, and add a whole new level of diversity to CITADELS.

Contents: 66 district cards, 9 character cards, 10 new expansion cards, 1 crown counter, 45 gold coins, 16 score counters, 18 charater counters. All in a box 26 x 20 x 4cm.
