bag building game: The follower tokens are placed in a red and a blue bag—the first contains mostly knights, the second fishermen. Farmers and merchants are distributed evenly among the bags, like- wise monks. Which means that this time in Orléans you make do without scholars and craftspeople. The final goal is to as- semble an eight-piece three-dimensional cardboard cathedral within three rounds.
Construction is accomplished by players collecting goods on the board and using them, for example, to supply workshops. However, each player can only pack five items into their backpack. Things get interesting at the end of the round: The deployed follower tokens go back into the bags, but depending on which side of the game board they were deployed on. In this way, the bag content changes—only this time, everyone tries to remember what is in each bag. A game with two to four cathedral builders takes about half an hour. The game is sched-

Rosaria Battiato, Massimo Borzi, and Martino Chiacchiera have transposed this art into a tile-laying game. Growth limitation is a good thing when everything has to fit neatly on a table. And aesthetic shaping is always great when we want our tree puzzle to look beautiful and pleasing to the eye and the heart.
The path to the best Bonsai is incred- ibly simple. Either the players (up to four of them, from eight years of age) med- itate, which means nothing else than taking a card and tiles with either wood (for the trunk), leaves, blossoms or fruits. Or they cultivate their little tree, meaning they lay down tiles.
