Originally released as part of Alhambra: The Falconers but is was sold separately at Spiel 2024 as a new Queenie.
The tiles have a different shape (octagon) than in the expansion (circles) but the rules remain the same.
“Building sites” allow players to purchase buildings for half the cost, but the building must be finished in order to count towards majorities.
Establishing a building site:
The player pays at least half (rounded down) of a building tile’s cost and takes the tile. Such a purchase is never regarded as paying the exact amount. The player takes 2 building site tiles, keeping the backs hidden from other players, and chooses one of them to place on top of the building tile just purchased, with the construction side face up. The other tile is shuffled back into the stack.
The player can add this building tile to their Alhambra or place it in their reserve. If added to the Alhambra, the walls on the tile count during scoring, but not the unfinished building itself.
