Description

A tactical bidding game. The highest bid determines not only the purchase price, but also which object will be sold next. So sometimes it's profitable to pay a little bit more than an object seems to be worth. It is a significantly revised version of Canaletto. Publication history: First published with the garden motif in 1996 by Bambus as Le Jardin. Then published in a fancier edition by Noris in 2000 as Der Garten des Sonnenkönigs.
