Rycerze i Zamki (Knights and Castles)

Another game in ‘Good game in a good price’ line that I got is Rycerze i Zamki – for a price of a pint (around €5) we get fast filler with surprisingly good components quality (for this price) and pretty fun gameplay.

Game is really simple: you have a hand of 8 cards with different characters with 3 stats:  wood, stone and bricks + 2 bluff cards with no stats. Each round a castle tile is revealed and you are fighting to get it using your characters by playing 2 cards – there are 2 wooden, stone and brick castles. Whoever characters has most points in value for castle you are fighting for is a winner and get this castle, if there are same cards on the table all of those cards are discarded. If all cards are discarded winner of the round is player with sword which is awarded to player with lowest points or if tie to youngest player.

P1060662There are 2 ‘bluff’ cards that have no stats and are always go back into your hand after played.

P1060658Each game is played over 7 rounds (you need to randomly remove one castle tile before game) and can last up to 5 minutes. You can play match that includes number of games equal to number of players and final result is sum of all games points.
