Patrician: Towers of Influence

In 13th-century Italy, wealthy Patrician families build magnificent towers to display their power and prosperity. Players take building orders, add floors to towers in different cities, and score points for controlling the tallest towers and collecting portrait card sets. Each turn, a Building card determines where construction takes place, with some cards providing special actions. The card taken next to the chosen city guides future plans. The game includes special two-player rules with an automated opponent, along with optional modules that add trade routes and delegates.
