The King Demands That You Build An Extravagant Castle. King Ludwig II of Bavaria is known for building over-the-top castles. Throughout his reign, he spent all of his personal fortune and a great deal of borrowed money in order to turn his wild and lavish dreams into reality. He was eventually declared insane, only to die a mysterious death the following day.

Castles of Mad King Ludwig is a tile-laying game where each player is trying to build the perfect castle, subject to the whims of the King. Each player acts as a building contractor, adding rooms to the castle they are building while selling their services to other players. Points are earned based on how well the castle adheres to the ever-changing demands of the King. The player with the most points at the end of the game wins! This 2nd Edition features upgraded art, beautiful new scoreboard, swan player markers, GameTrayz organizers, and more!
