Reviving Kathmandu (the second installment in the Globetrotter Series) is a bidding and set collection game designed for 1-6 players. In this game, players assume the role of builders traveling to Nepal, competing to earn the title of Most Respected Architect in Kathmandu. The project was backed by 2059 supporters on Kickstarter.

Gameplay: Players bid on construction material cards, then collect and use these cards to build prestigious Buddhas, Shrines, Stupas, and Pagodas (“Monuments”). Points are scored based on the monuments built, achieving special objectives, and paying attention to color. The player with the highest score wins.

Game Modes and Variations: The base game includes solo play, 2-player, team play, and advanced game modes. An expansion, the Senior Architects Expansion, further enhances the game with special abilities, Public Goals, and Advanced Missions.
