The governor wants a fortress built - make a name for yourself by getting it done. Raise the walls, level by level, finding the materials & labor needed on the remote island. Opportunity knocks!
This strategy game focuses on planning and timing your actions to achieve maximum results. Players use money (jade cubes) to buy wall tiles and workers, or to win an auction to be starting player for the round. When players add to the fortress wall, they can win rewards by completing levels and by creating special patterns. Normal limits on your actions can be exceeded by paying extra jade or by cashing in rewards. Knowing when to pay the price to seize the opportunity is what this game is all about.
