Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Tower Of Babel is a lovely little euro-game with rather simple rules. At first you might think "That's it? Where is the game in this?" But then the subtleties of gameplay begin to reveal themselves one at a time, until you are thinking "Oh my, what a fascinating game".
My kids like this, and it is not too confrontational or long winded (plays easily in one hour) for my girlfriend. So, it gets lots of plays. Also, it plays equally well with 3, 4, or 5 players.
BTW, I play without the 'power cards'. These were not in Reiner Knizia's original design. They were added by the publisher, to the detriment of the game in the opinionof this player and the consensus on boardgamegeek.com.

Who doesn't know of the wonders of the ancient world? World renown gigantic monuments, made by the hands of men to honor or glorify God. The most famous of these are know today as the seven wonders of the ancient world: the pyramid of Giza, the colossus of Rhodes, the statue of Zeus at Olympia, the hanging gardens of Babylon, the Mausoleum of Halicarnassus, the Lighthouse of Alexandria, and the temple of Artemis at Ephesus. And, perhaps, also the unfinished tower of Babel - the eighth wonder of the ancient world?Monuments cannot be erected by individuals. Each player needs the help of the others to complete his work. The others, of course, expect something in return. The challenge is to get the right help at the right time.When should the pyramid be finished? How many building pieces are needed to complete the temple of Artemis? Should I play a trade card or not? The players must answer these and other questions turn by turn. Each, of course, wants to be the greatest builder of the ancient world!
