Hi-dilly-ho, neighborinos!
Saint Petersburg (or Sankt Petersburg in German) is a well-made success story above all. The game is based on what has made Alhambra, San Juan or other similar games successful: each player plays on their own with few interactions and neat components.
The game has won many awards, all around the world, and has been very popular amongst players ever since.
In Saint Petersburg, you're developing the city at the beginning of the 18th century, with craftsmen, constructions and nobles to manage. A true German-style game, i.e. mechanics are really the heart of the game.
The game is split into several rounds, each of which is composed of virtually similar phases, the cards changing for each phase.
Basically, you place cards face up on the board, and either buy one, take one from your hand (a reservation), put one from your hand on your own board, and pay the cost or pass. So 4 possible actions. Easy.
Except that, cards are rather expensive and money quickly becomes scarce. Knowing that for all similar cards the cost decreases, and that the remaining cards in the next round will cost one less. So the game holds a certain "push your luck" flavor: you buy right away, you reserve or you wait until it becomes cheaper.
Some cards will bring money, depending on the phase, and others will bring victory points. It's all about making the right investment choices at the right time.
In the end, the rules are extremely clear, well explained and very fluid. You don't have to wait between turns, even at 5 players.

All our thanks go to Hans Im Gluck and to the game designer Bernd Brunnhofer, without forgetting of course to tip our hats to our developer Marcuda for the top-notch work he has done on this adaptation.
You'll probably enjoy the interesting mechanics, including playing by phases with different gains at the end of each one. The whole feel is very strategic, and the game will especially please analytical players.
It works like a card game, for lovers of management and calculation games.
And now, what else can we ding dong diddly do for you?
圣彼得堡:2004年以来现代桌游中的经典之作
嗨,亲爱的,邻居们!
圣彼得堡(Saint Petersburg,德国称为Sankt Petersburg)是一个尤为精致的成功之作。
该游戏吸取了阿尔罕布拉宫,圣胡安或其他类似游戏成功的经验:让每个玩家自己进行游戏,少量的互动以及简洁的元素。
该游戏在世界各地赢得了许多奖项,从那时起一直在玩家中广受欢迎。
在圣彼得堡这一游戏中,您将要开发这座18世纪初的城市,并管理其中的工匠,建筑和贵族。
这是一个真正的德式游戏,即.
机制才是游戏的核心。
游戏可分为数个回合,每个回合实际上都由相似的阶段组成,而每个阶段的卡牌均会发生变化。
基本规则是,您将卡片正面朝上置于桌面,然后购买一张,从您的手上拿一张(保留),打出一张手牌放至自己的棋盘上,接着支付费用或跳过回合。
因此可能的动作有四种。
很简单。
除此之外,卡牌相当昂贵,因此钱很快就会变少。
要知道对于所有相似的卡成本会降低,而保留至下一轮中的卡成本会降低一倍。
因此,游戏具有某种“得寸进尺”的味道:您立即购买,保留或等待它变得更便宜。
根据阶段的不同,有些卡会带来金钱,而有一些卡则会带来胜利点。
这一切都关乎于在正确的时间做出正确的投资选择。
最后,游戏规则十分清晰,易于解释且非常灵活。
即使是5人游戏,您也无需在回合间等待。
