| DESCRIPTION
Puerto Rico's golden age returns -- through you! Players travel now to the
capital city of this beautiful island. Who will build the most important
buildings? Players build palaces, poor houses, silver smelters, gold mines, and
many others -- each with its own special features. The cleverest player will
build well and win!
San Juan is based on the highly acclaimed and awarded
Puerto Rico board
game, but is a separate card game, that anyone can play whether they have played
Puerto Rico or not. It does not require the Puerto Rico board game to play.
As with the board game, players choose roles which can help all players, but the
choosing player gets a special privilege with the role chosen. Players build
buildings, produce and sell goods, and so on. The game is based on Puerto Rico,
but different enough to give players new challenges and opportunities for fun
and enjoyment.
