Citadels – Bluff, Scheme and Build Your City 🏰👑

Every round, a new role – and a new plan. Citadels by Bruno Faidutti, published by Z-Man Games, is a classic card game of hidden roles and city building for 2 to 8 players aged 10 and up, in 30 to 60 minutes.

At the start of each round, players secretly draft characters, each with a special ability: the Thief robs another character, the Magician swaps hands of cards, and others bring their own tricks. Then you collect gold or cards and build districts in your city. The game ends when a city reaches seven districts (eight in games with 2–3 players, where each player uses two characters). This revised edition includes all previously published content in a travel-friendly size.
