Stapelstad

In Stapelstad, you are a contractor who is going to build a residential area. You try to pick the best pieces of land on which to build houses. The game board consists of a grid of spaces showing different values from 1 to 5 in a given color. During a turn, you take 2 colored cards from the draw pile and add them to your hand (with a limit of 5 hand cards) or you discard cards to build a building(s) on a space with the corresponding color of the card after which you take 1 new card. If you build a building, you must build it adjacent to an already existing building and discard 1 or more cards of the color corresponding to the space you want to build on. You can play a maximum of 5 cards. For each card you play, you may build 1 building on the field. You then receive a number of points equal to the number of pips on the field multiplied by the number of buildings you built. You can build multiple buildings during a turn.
