Alhambra: The Red Palace

Players build individual palaces by acquiring money cards and purchasing building tiles from a shared market, then placing a matching 3D wooden building on the drawn tile. Scoring occurs in three rounds for majority in each building type and for the longest contiguous wall segment; walls and buildings are separate components and walls collect guard icons when tiles are bought. Guards placed on wall icons award bonus points for the longest wall during scoring and can be discarded to perform powerful extra actions on a player’s turn. The game ends when the market cannot be refilled and a final scoring determines the winner.
