Aldabas: Doors of Cartagena

Players assemble a neighborhood of colonial Cartagena by placing door tiles that display distinctive knockers representing occupations and status. On each turn, players take actions to add tiles to their tableau, rearrange or upgrade placements, and collect coins. Tile placement creates adjacency patterns that trigger bonuses and scoring opportunities, so spatial planning and set-making drive decisions. Income management and timing of upgrades affect how quickly a neighborhood fills with high-value citizens. Scoring rewards clusters of matching or complementary knockers and accumulated wealth; the player with the most influence after a set number of rounds wins.
