Basilica was originally released back in 2010, and was designed by Lukasz M. Pogoda. It is a game where two rival architects are constructing the same basilica, one working for the queen and the other working for the bishop. This game is essentially a builders duel featuring tactical solutions and negative interactions. The new edition of this game features refreshed artwork and components. It also adds the Festum Fatuorum mini-expansion to the game that allows players to use special tiles and Altar tokens.
This game is for two players, ages 10 and up, and plays in 45 minutes. It will retail for $40.00.
Portal Games will also be releasing Brazil: Imperial into U.S. retail (see "Portal Games Announces 'Brazil: Imperial'").
