With only one person at a time making any decisions, it’s not like ONUW or Sushi-Go-Party, where you can mix it a bit, spend longer making your decisions, and still not suffer any downtime. Citadels is a strategy-based card game that is designed to be played with two to eight players. It is recommended for players aged 10 and above and the box suggests the game should take between 30 minutes and an hour.

Pro tip: If you draft predictable characters in each round, you may become the target of the hit man or the thief. How do you score points?

Assassin (No. 1) - May name one character (not player). That character may not take their turn this round. Also, if you’re playing with a lot of people who are new to the game, I’d allow for over an hour. Is Citadels a good board game? Emperor (No. 4 and Yellow) - May collect gold pieces equal to the number of yellow buildings in their tableau (i.e. in their personal playing field). MUST take the crown token (aka first player token) and give it to a different player (not themselves). That player must pay the Emperor 1 gold coin or one card. The 4’s also earn money for every yellow noble district in their city. This is a core theme. The 5’s do similar for the blue religious districts, the 6’s with trade districts, the 8’s with military. So one strategy can be to focus on a given colour of district and take its matching role card for ALL THE MONIES. But, you see, everyone will know you want to do this. You don’t want to do that. Oh God no!All other players who have managed to build eight districts at the end of the game receive two points. There are five district types; Noble, Religious, Trade, Military and Unique and extra points can be gained by building all five district types in your city. The gold cost of building a district card is equal to the number of gold coins printed on the upper left-hand side of the card.
