At the foot of the Sierra Nevada mountains, one of the most exciting and interesting project of the Spanish Middle Ages begins: the construction of the \u003cem\u003eALHAMBRA\u003c\/em\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe best master builders in the whole of Europe and Arabia want to demonstrate their skill. Employ the most suitable teams of builders and make sure that you always have enough of the right currency. Because no matter whether they are stonemasons from the north or horticulturalists from the south, they all want a proper wage and insist on their \"native\" currency. With their help towers can be constructed, gardens laid out, pavilions and arcades erected and seraglios and chambers built.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn \u003cem\u003eAlhambra\u003c\/em\u003e, players are acquiring buildings to be placed within their \u003cem\u003eAlhambra\u003c\/em\u003e complex.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe money in \u003cem\u003eAlhambra\u003c\/em\u003e comes in four different currencies and is available in the open money market. The 54 buildings of six types become available for purchase in the building market four at a time; one building is available in each of the four different currencies. On a player's turn, a player may 1) take money from the open money market, 2) purchase a building from the building market and either place it in his \u003cem\u003eAlhambra\u003c\/em\u003e or reserve, or 3) engage in construction and re-construction projects with buildings that have been placed in the player's \u003cem\u003eAlhambra\u003c\/em\u003e or reserve. The game rewards efficiency, as when a player purchases a building from the market for the exact amount of money, the player may take another turn.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlayers with the most buildings in each of the six building types in his \u003cem\u003eAlhambra\u003c\/em\u003e score in each of the scoring phases, and points are awarded for players' longest external \"wall\" section within their complex. The game ends when the building market can no longer be replenished from the building tile supply, and there is a final scoring, whereupon the player with the highest score wins.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAWARDS \u0026amp; HONORS\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2005 Vuoden Peli Adult Game of the Year Winner\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2005 Vuoden Peli Adult Game of the Year Nominee\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2005 Nederlandse Spellenprijs Nominee\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2005 Juego del Año Finalist\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2005 Hra roku Nominee\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2005 Årets Spill Best Family Game Winner\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2005 Årets Spill Best Family Game Nominee\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2004 Hra roku Nominee\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2003 Spiel des Jahres Winner\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2003 Spiel des Jahres Nominee\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2003 Japan Boardgame Prize Best Foreign Game for Beginners Nominee\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2003 Japan Boardgame Prize Best Advanced Game Nominee\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2003 International Gamers Awards - General Strategy; Multi-player Nominee\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2003 Essener Feder Best Written Rules Winner\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2003 Deutscher Spiele Preis Best Family\/Adult Game 2nd Place\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Queen Games","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51488469614885,"sku":null,"price":50.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0573\/0454\/7478\/files\/alhambra-family-and-friends-compact-edition-116495_4190a.jpg?v=1761885684","url":"https:\/\/roningames.com.au\/products\/alhambra","provider":"Ronin Games","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
