📖 About This Game

"Bürger, Baumeister & Co." means in English: Citizen, builder & Co. A game for the 150th anniversary of Saalbau/Frankfurt. When the great cities of Europe tore down their fortified walls in the 19th Century, a stunning construction boom took place. Sprawling parks, stately residential quarters and industrial district sprang up around the old Medieval city centres. During the so-called "Founding Time", the cities burghers took the lead in cultural affairs and laid the groundwork for many museums, foundations and institutions – many of which still exist today. Players act as burghers of that time. Through large and small building projects, they try to turn Frankfurt am Main into a cultural and industrial hub. The player who collects the most Fame Points doing so wins the game.
