About Basilica

Basilica, a game for 2 players, presents the duel of two medieval master masons who are ordered to build a medieval cathedral together. Players are planning cathedral layout and overseeing work at the construction site in tandem, in the same time trying to gain advantage over the opposite player. The temple is built by laying square tiles adjacent to the board or already built tiles. Tiles form the plan of the cathedral.
