(More customer reviews)My wife and I have only played this a few times so far but we both enjoyed it. I rate it a 4 - I only rate Go or Chess with a 5, sorry.
It is difficult to find games that appeal to both of us. I can't stand Ticket to Ride European because for two people it feels like a rather boring solitaire game. She won't touch anything that is pure strategy like Go, especially if it is aggressive. This game - like Carcassonne, Thurn and Taxis, Alhambra, and Saint Petersburg - fits the bill for both of us. It seems like there may be smarter choices available in this that in the others listed, yet it isn't a complicated game to learn. It requires good timing of your choices. There is some chance which is good for a family game. Although the medieval building theme is pasted on -- it's really an abstract game in disguise -- the bits are attractive.
We also enjoy the fact that it has unusual mechanics.

Brand new, just released international edition! Die Baumeister von Arkadia is a game about building the city and castle of Arkadia. Players use builders, cards, workers and neutral workers to build houses in Arkadia. Houses are built with the seal of one of 4 families; this family gave the building order and will get the building player its seal. These seals can be changed for victory points. But seals are subject to changing values. The growing castle (every time a house is built, players also build on the castle) has the 4 seals on it as well, which decides the value of each seal. The castle is also the games timer: once the second layer is built, the last round starts. The player with the most victory points wins. Components include: 1 Game Board 1 Building Lot for the castle 4 screens 16 architect banners 40 building cards 40 buildings 88 seals 90 gold coins 28 square seal tiles 68 workers 28 castle pieces
