Alhambra the Board Game by Queen Games puts you in Granada at the beginning of the 13th century and work has started on building the ALHAMBRA...
The best master builders in the whole of Europe and Arabia want to demonstrate their skill. Employ the most suitable teams of builders and make sure that you always have enough of the right currency. Because no matter whether they are stonemasons from the north or horticulturalists from the south, they all want a proper wage and insist on their “native” currency. With their help towers can be
constructed, gardens laid out, pavilions and arcades erected and seraglios and chambers built. Compete against your opponents to build the ALHAMBRA.
