The Castles of Burgundy: The Card Game

Hand Management

You have a hand of cards and deciding which to play, save, or discard is the core puzzle.

Set Collection

You're gathering matching groups of cards or tokens to score points — the more complete your sets, the better you do.

Turn Order: Claim Action

You grab turn order by claiming a specific action — being first has its perks if you plan for it.

Turn Order: Progressive

Turn order shifts gradually each round — the player in last often gets a helpful boost.
