London, 19th Century: building sites in Kensington district are highly coveted. Each architect wants to build the most impressive, most solid and highest structure. But the competition is fierce. Who will earn the most points with his building and who will convince investors of his luxury mansion?

Players are architects building a Georgian palace taking into account the building regulations. The building parts were drawn from the hidden deck in the center of the player board or from a warehouse, either your own or from your opponents.

A game ends when the seventh roof tile with a bird is drawn. Then each architect is allowed to build the tiles left in his warehouse.

To win the game, players should consider the amount of roofed windows and doors as well as different heights. Cats will also earn points for the final tallying. Well done and congratulations to the best architect!
