In Saint Petersburg you'll be buying different types of cards: workers, buildings, aristocrats, trading cards and the new market cards. In every phase a new type of card will be available for purchase. You'll start with workers, who are good at bringing in rubles. The new market (yellow) cards, bring in new resources. Having the majorities in these resources from round to round will earn you additional victory points. This battle for the lead enhances the game experience, and expands the tactical and strategic possibilities of the players. In the next phase buildings can be acquired, mostly granting victory points. Aristocrats provide a mix of victory points and rubles, and also lead to a large end-game point bonus that can't be ignored. Trading cards allow already purchased cards to be improved. These phases will repeat until a one of the card decks runs out. At this point the final victory points are counted, and the winner is declared. For this new edition of Saint Petersburg we've kept the well-known and loved basic game, but also added an additional game phase. This will allow us to fully integrate the fifth player into the game. The new market phase will introduce a new mechanic providing additional victory points and rubles. The purple action cards from the banquet expansion will also have matching cards for the market phase. And of course for lovers of the old version it will be still possible to play the game by the original rules. 2004 Deutscher Spiele Preis Best Family/Adult Game Winner 2004 Fairplay À la carte Winner 2004 International Gamers Awards - General Strategy; Multi-player 2004 Japan Boardgame Prize Best Advanced Game Nominee 2004 Spiel der Spiele Hit für Experten Recommended 2004 Spiel des Jahres Nominee 2004 Tric Trac d'Or 2004 Tric Trac Nominee 2005 Hra roku Nominee 2005 Nederlandse Spellenprijs Nominee 2006 Hra roku Nominee
