Step back into the 6th century BCE, where the great Nebuchadnezzar II, the king of Babylon, sought to honor his beloved wife, Amytis of Media, with enchanting gardens filled with fragrant blooms. He summoned the brightest architects of his time to transform his dream into reality, crafting what would later be hailed as one of the seven wonders of the ancient world.

In Babylon, you become one of those esteemed architects, entrusted with the mission to design and construct these magnificent gardens. Delve into the quarry to gather the finest materials, and strategically deploy them to build your masterpiece. As the game unfolds, the architect who designs the most stunning garden to impress the king will be celebrated as the greatest in all the kingdom!

This captivating game is perfect for family gatherings, yet boasts deep strategic elements that appeal to experienced gamers. With countless ways to optimize your design, Babylon offers a rich and rewarding experience for all players involved.

The game begins with the quarry—represented by the beautifully designed box—situated at the center of the table. On your turn, you will select a Terrace tile from the quarry, collecting pillars based on its positioning. These pillars will be essential in placing the tile on your personal board and adorning your garden with various decorative elements.

Construct terraces that rise to new heights and lavish them with creativity! With each decorative item contributing to your final victory score depending on its level, every decision counts in your pursuit to create the ultimate garden.

Are you ready to leave your mark in the annals of history and claim your title as the kingdom's greatest architect? Let the building begin!
