Castell

Castell is built on a real Catalan folk tradition: at village festivals, teams climb onto each other's shoulders to form human towers, sometimes eight to ten people high. In the game you run a castell team, a colla, and travel across the regions of Catalonia over ten rounds. You recruit castellers, train them in new skills so your towers get more impressive, and perform at festivals in the towns and villages. It all comes down to matching the right people to the right tower and getting yourself to the right place at the right time. Two to four players, about ninety minutes, and a theme you rarely see on a game table.
