Babel

Build your the temples more and more beautiful until they seem to touch the sky.

A surprisingly vicious, ‘take that!’ card game that reveals a lot of interesting strategies if you play it enough. Lots of room for gazumping your opponent with well-timed card combinations. A 2-player favourite of mine.

This rules and reference uses the graphics from the original edition (which I own), but includes the corrected rule for Sumerians, and the new starting hand rule and some terminology from the second edition.

Making these game aids takes a lot of work, yet I provide them free of charge. If you find them useful, please consider making a donation, or becoming a regular supporter via PATREON, so I can continue making quality tabletop gaming content. Thankyou!
