About the Game

In this game, you are all competitive, wealthy book collectors attempting to have the most notable personal library. Having the best combination of books, you will be able to accomplish this feat. Players want to get victory points before the other collectors. With specific book collections and goal cards, players will need a winning combination of books and goals to claim victory!

There are eight kinds of books in this game, along with game influencing action cards. Each book you can lay down is worth one victory point. Collecting certain books and sets of books will get you extra points. The players in this game draw from the deck, which has both action and book cards in it. You can play two cards on your turn. They can be two books you lay down, a book and an action card, or two action cards.

You lay down books in front of you to gather enough points to win. You can also trade books you have with other players. It may benefit them, but it could benefit you more so trade carefully. By collecting certain books, playing action cards, and effective trading, you will reach victory sooner than your rivals and win the game!
