Product Description Cathedral Classic from Family Games is a beautiful version of the popular Cathedral game.

If you can block and out-maneuver your opponent at every turn, you'll claim the victory. With its beautifully finished hardwood game pieces, the game looks different every time you play. Cathedral is an elegant game that includes an all-wood game board and castle pieces in a variety of shapes and sizes. Recommended for 2 players ages 8 and up. Board dimensions: 11'' x 3.5'' x 11''. Family Games is committed to selling safe, creative games of the highest quality. Our products are manufactured using environmentally safe and socially responsible methods. All the wood used in manufacturing was either from surplus wood from furniture factories or farmed trees from re-growth forests. desertcart.com Just as it is in a modern metropolis, space is at a premium in the game of Cathedral. This game is a developer's dream! Cathedral challenges two players to place as many buildings as possible within the walls of a medieval city. There are two sets (light and dark) of hardwood buildings of various sizes. To begin the game, one player places the cathedral on the grid of the walled city. Then the two players vie for the remaining land. Their goal is to place their own buildings while thwarting their opponent's land-grabbing tendencies. If a player can completely surround one of his/her opponent's buildings, that building is removed from the board and the space gobbled up by a different building. The game ends up resembling a puzzle that must be thoughtfully pieced together. The winner is the player whose unplaced buildings would occupy the least amount of space in the city. Fans of chess should enjoy exercising their strategizing muscles on this one. The hardwood board measures 9.25 inches square. --Wendy Slotboom P.when('A').execute(function(A) { A.on('a:expander:toggle_description:toggle:collapse', function(data) { window.scroll(0, data.expander.$expander[0].offsetTop-100); }); }); From the Manufacturer This classic version of the popular Cathedral game.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can you explain the image on the box?**
A: The game has a medieval theme to it, although it is purely for aesthetics.  The outer edges of the board are "town walls" and each piece is given a name based on the shape and size.  The idea of the game is to strategically occupy more of the "town" with your buildings than your opponent's.  The box cover art is following the medieval theme:  A suit of armor, helmet with chainmail, a walled city and what I am guessing is "gothic" design.  Other than that, it has no significance.  I have had this game for over a decade and my box cover was solid brown with gold lettering...  One of our favorite "go to" games to play on a rainy day.

**Q: The game board in the video is at least 12" square but the dimensions here state 8.75" square, which is it?**
A: It’s a wonderful board game- probably closer to the 9”.

**Q: I have seen large and small versions of this game and am looking for the larger one.  How big is this game being sold here?**
A: The game board that I have is 9.5 inches square and the single piece has a 3/4 x 3/4 inch square footprint and the squares on the board are about 3/4". The UPC is 8645300607, made in China. It is all made of wood. I just realized that the one I have was a gift from a different store. The one that I bought at Amazon was given away as a gift so I don't have those dimensions.

**Q: What kind of weight do the pieces have? Do they feel too light/flimsy?**
A: The weight of the entire board game is 7.8 lbs. Each of the pieces is solid wood so they have a heavy feel. It's one of our best selling games. We hope you order one. Thanks for your inquiry.
