After the Great Disasters, a new chapter unfolds in Sylvan Dale’s history. The Elders have tasked you and your fellow architects with creating a breathtaking woodland realm—a sanctuary built high among the Great Trees. Lead the builders as they craft dwellings, bridges, and hanging courtyards in this magical forest.

Builders of Sylvan Dale, designed by Peter Ridgeway, is a captivating three-dimensional tile placement game. Play cards to place new dwellings atop the ever-growing trees, creating a layered forest skyline. Collect card sets to unlock special actions, such as constructing bridges or magically extending treetops. Elevate your dwellings higher than your rivals’ to secure your legacy as Sylvan Dale’s greatest architect.

The game spans two rounds, with players placing tiles and aiming to gain Prestige by collecting fame points. At the end of each round, players score based on dominance over trees and districts. The player with the most fame points at the end of the game is declared the winner.

Charming and strategic, Builders of Sylvan Dale appeals to both casual players and seasoned gamers alike.
