The year is 1598, and you and your friends are in Orléans, France, with an epic mission: build a cathedral! In The Cathedral of Orléans, a cooperative game, you must work together to recruit followers — knights, craftsmen, scholars, traders, and monks — who will help perform essential actions. The challenge? These followers are divided into two bags, and you need to decide which one to draw from to get the right tile. Memory is your ally here, as you must remember which tiles went into which bag at the end of each round. Time is crucial: the cathedral must be completed by the third round, or the bell tower will toll, ending the game. The highlight? You build a real, three-dimensional cathedral! Get ready for an engaging experience that will test your strategy and teamwork.
