The year is 1822. After years of decay, it is time to rebuild the medina, located at the foot of the Atlas mountains.

Each turn, players must place two pieces on the board, either augmenting an existing building or starting a new building if the current building of that color is finished. Each player will claim one building of each of the four colors by the end of the game, giving one point per wooden piece attached to the building.
Also, if you own the largest building of a particular color you get a bonus for that color. Finally, there are bonuses for the player who most recently connected one of their buildings to the walls, which grow from the four corners of the city.
Medina is a tense game by the great designer Stefan Dorra.

La puntuación final evalua el valor de cada palacio en función de la cantidad de piezas que lo componen y algunas otras que añaden puntos extra. Es un juego abastracto con bastante enjundia. El tablero al final de
Juego con muchísimas piezas de madera, tablero, pantallas y 8 losetas de bonus. Se trata de construir entre todos, de forma abstracta, la ciudad de medina, colocando 2 piezas en tu turno. La clave, sólo tienes 4 cúpulas, y ningún palacio pertenece a nadie hasta que no uses una de ellas en uno sin reclamar. Los palacios se construyen entre todos, y hasta que no esté uno reclamado, tienes que añadirle piezas del mismo color, antes de poder empezar uno nuevo. También tienes que dejar "calles" entre palacios, por lo que no se pueden añadir piezas ni ortogonalmente ni en diagonal, si "cortas" una c
Buen eurogame sencillo y rápido de jugar.
