Torres--A strategy game of castle building and knights.
Demonstrate your abilities as a clever castle builder on several levels! Use
the building blocks to build the castles and then move your knights into the top
scoring positions. If you choose to guard the king, he will be grateful, but you
must still build to win the game.
The clever and efficient use of scarce action points will bring victory to
only the few truly gifted players. The others may learn from them to teach
lessons another day!

The old King is dying and the princes are all vying to succeed him. The players
are the princes and each begins with three castles and three knights. Using
limited resources, each tries to build stable regions and then expand them. When
a prince expands into a brother’s region, he gains points and his brother
loses points. The more territory a prince can claim, the more points he earns.
When the king dies, the prince who has gained the most power points, becomes the
new king and the winner of the game!

Description
The old haunted castle is filled with lots of creepy characters, all trying to
find their own shadow. A shadow is only visible when a window is open, but only
one window is open at a time. Your job is to match up the shadow with the
correct ghost. It takes a little bit of concentration, and a good memory is a
big asset. But everyone starts with the same ghost of a chance to win.

You and your opponent control two opposing forces, battling to gain power. The
Cathedral is the peaceful heart of the city, the sanctuary around which your
struggle takes place.
It's your move. Should you use your Tower to block your opponent's attack?
Perhaps your Abbey can wall off a section of the city. Or, should you place your
inn and surround your opponent's tavern?
Capture territory, trap your opponent's buildings, control the space within
the city walls and your forces will prevail!

Knights have assembled from all over to challenge each other using force,
magic, and honor.
There is absolutely no luck in this fast paced card game. You prosper by your
own decision, your own hand. Either you will force your opponents to submit or
they will force you to submit to them.
Chivalry is not dead. It's alive and well right here. So color yourself lucky
to have found this game. The King awaits his champion.
