Palazzo
Who will build the most magnificent palace? In the game of Palazzo, set in the age of the late renaissance, the players slip on the roles of wealthy landowners, who compete against each other to build the most valuable palaces. As their constructions grow, the players must choose from the available palace modules from the quarries, so they can add to their palaces. Of course, none of this building can be done without money, so sometimes players must take time out to earn some money so they can afford to continue their building projects.

What the community says about Palazzo
Good game. Auction mechanism to obtain parts of the buildings. It reminds in some way to Alhambra, but I find this one much more interactive and complex. It looks pretty nice when you build your palaces.
Juego de subastas y construcción de palacios. Cada jugador es un arquitecto que al final de la partida (provocado por la aparición de unas losetas específicas). En cada turno puedees conseguir dinero, construir (comprando directamente o a través de subasta) o reconstuir lo ya construido. Al final se puntúa según el tipo de palacio. Se puede puntuar negativo ,por un palacio de una planta. Cuantas más plantas y más ventanas mejor. Si además, no has mezclado materiales (hay tres posibles), mejor aún. Muy entretenido y sencillo de jugar. La copia que jugué es de Javi y me da una pena enorme t
Players: 2, 3, 4.
Gestión de recursos, subastas y construcción. Funciona bastante bien incluso con dos jugadores.
