About the game

What is Venedig?

Nürnberg 2007 release for 2-5 players aged 10 and above. Contents: 86 swamp tiles, 42 buildings, 42 building cards, 20 treasure tiles, 5 gondolas, 4 builders, 1 board, 1 rules booklet. The players use cards to construct buildings in Venice, which is one way of advancing their respective gondolas. In addition, players collect treasure tiles if they place a building in a district adjacent to their gondola, and drain swamps to collect swamp tiles. Swamp and treasure tiles can also be used to advance a player's gondola. At the end of the game, the player whose gondola has moved the farthest, wins. Online Play BrettspielWelt (real-time)
