About this game

A medieval monastery card game in two acts. In the first, you draft cards for yourself or your opponents. In the second, you auction for what remains. Biblios is deceptively simple, surprisingly cutthroat, and packs a full game experience into 30 minutes. The push-pull of generosity and greed in the drafting phase is genuinely unique.
