Tower is a set collection game for 2-to-4 players, and should take somewhere around an hour to play. The idea is simple: Players race to beat their opponents to stores and buy the resources they need before they are out of stock. Resources are purchased with jewels, which players draw from the black bag at the start of their turns. The players then use their purchased resources to construct segments of the tower. The first player to construct all three of his/her tower segments is the winner!

A big theme Tower is scarcity of resources; there are only 18 resources in a four-player game. It's likely that, in any given play session, there will only be enough resources for one player, forcing everyone to play dirty in order to come out on top.

The black market provides a source for players to hire thugs to carry out some pretty shady actions. These range from intimidation, to stealing resources from other players, and robbing Salil, the tax collector. It's a dirty job, but it's necessary in order to succeed in Tower.

Tower is available at The Game Crafter for $29.99:
