Citadels Duel is a tense card game by Z-Man Games in which two rival city planners compete for control of the Citadel. This standalone two-player version reimagines the classic Citadels experience into a faster, sharper duel full of bluffing, timing and character powers. Build districts, sway the council and decide when to use influential figures such as the Queen, Assassin or Warlord. Every ally you recruit can also become an opportunity for your opponent, so reading intentions and planning ahead are essential. Citadels Duel is not a reduced version of the original, but a dedicated head-to-head strategy game for players who enjoy intrigue, deduction and direct tactical rivalry.
How do you play the game?
Players collect gold, construct districts and use character cards to gain advantages or disrupt the opponent. The central council system keeps both players watching which characters, actions and buildings will be most valuable at the right moment. When the final building rises, the player with the most wealth and renown wins.
