What is it about?

In Babylon, you play as architects from the 6th century B.C., commissioned by the great King Nebuchadnezzar II to build magnificent hanging gardens in honor of his young wife, Amytis of Media. Which of you will rise to the challenge of this colossal task and have the illustrious honor of creating one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World?

Gameplay

The box, representing the quarry from which you will draw your building materials, is placed in the center of the table. On your turn, take a Terrace tile of your choice from the quarry and receive a varying number of pillars, depending on its location. Use these pillars to place your tile, and, if you can, embellish your garden with various decorative elements.

Stack your terraces to build up floor by floor and decorate them as much as possible. At the end of the game, each decorative element will earn you victory points based on the floor on which it is located.
