World Monuments (2016)

About this game

Description from the publisher: Dive into the world of master builders and construct monumental buildings of historic significance. In each game of World Monuments, you and your fellow players choose one of four buildings and start constructing it from the ground up: The Capitol in Washington, the Notre Dame cathedral in Paris, the basilica San Pietro in Rome, or the Taj Mahal mausoleum in Agra. Only the most talented master builder among the players gains many points and has a chance of winning the game, after the building is completed.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 2 to 4.
• Rules load. At 1.4/5 this is a light game — explain it in a few minutes, good for a table that has not played much.
• Age. The publisher suggests 8 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
