It's also a game of two halves, the first part setting up the board for the second. Though it's perfectly possible for your opponent to wreck your preparations when it comes to actually playing the second half.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe aim is to get your buildings onto the board (carefully contained within the game's box) so that they are illuminated by Parisian street lights. However, you can only put your buildings on cobbled areas in your colour – or neutral. Hence the importance of the first half, which is when you lay cobblestone (and street light) tiles and grab buildings. But it's only in the second half that you score points and it's so easy to come unstuck!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI really enjoyed this game when I played it at Spiel '19 and it looks pretty as well.
