The Red Cathedral
Build Saint Basil's Cathedral one colorful dome at a time
Who it's for
Euro fans who want a medium-weight puzzle in a compact package. Great at 2 players where the dice market feels tightest.
Not for you if…
Not for players who dislike indirect competition or want more thematic immersion.
Vibe's take
Clever, tight, puzzly, elegant
About this game
Euro game about constructing Saint Basil's Cathedral in Moscow. Players use a shared rondel of dice to gather resources, then claim and build sections of the cathedral. The dice market creates a clever tension between taking what you need and leaving your opponents options.
