City and Guilds

 

Each player tries to control the cuilds and thus parts of a medieval town. There are four guilds, candlemakers, weavers, bakers and blacksmiths. In a turn a player places a tile, either a building or a market of a guild, and then they invest in this guild and the town block. Each tile must be placed next to another tile already there. A full block is scored, the first, second and third in majorities in the block earns money. At the end of the game ownership of the guilds is scored, then the richest player wins.
