Set in Granada 1278, Alhambra is a construction game where players are acquiring building to add to their Alhambra or palace. Players go to a marketplace with four different types of currencies to buy buildings, and then, engage in the construction or re-construction of their Alhambra. The players gain points for the buildings they've constructed and the length of their external wall around their complex. The player with the most points at the end of the game wins.
Alhambra: Revised Edition will feature new artwork and a convenient tile dispenser. It is for two to six players, ages 8 and up, and plays in 45 to 60 minutes. Alhambra: Revised Edition will retail for $49.99.
