An awesome game that has already sold over 100,000 copies. Each player must build the ramparts of his castle by adding walls of increasing values. On his turn, he must reveal one of the 45 face down numbered cards and decide whether to keep it or not. If he keeps it, he adds it to his rampart. Otherwise, he puts it back face down, making it available to all other players. The winner is the first player to build a rampart of 10 walls. In the family variant, some walls have special powers (cannons, towers, magicians) or earn bonus points (king, queen, princesses, princes, ravens). The Illustrations are wonderful.
