It is freely inspired by the traditional Chinese game, Mahjong. During your turn, you will take a pair of identical tiles from the central \u201ccastle\u201d (known as the Dragon Castle) and place them on your own Realm board to build your own castle. <\/p>\n<p>Every time you create a set of tiles of the same kind, you will \u201cConsolidate\u201d them: i.e., flip them face down. This will earn you Victory Points; the bigger the set, the more points you\u2019ll obtain. When you Consolidate a set, you may also build Shrines on top of the Consolidated tiles: Shrines allow you to score more points, but they also limit your building options. <\/p>\n<p>You may also take advantage of the available Spirit card and its game-changing powers&#8230; but this will cost you tiles! Finally, don\u2019t forget to check the Dragon card in play, and to follow its building requirements to score bonus points. When the Dragon Castle has been reduced to only one floor, the end of the game is triggered. After one final round, the player with the most points is the lord of the new Dragon Castle\u2026 and the winner of the game! <\/p>\n<p><center><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/gallery.mailchimp.com\/dbf556334834d4d26631b6336\/images\/94b2a78a-26b2-4273-acb2-6be3b5e4a363.jpg\" alt=\"\" widht=\"600\" height=\"400\" \/><\/center><\/p>\n<p>Dragon Castle will officially be launched at the Essen SPIEL fair that will run from 26 to 29 October 2017.
