A long time ago in Italy, a man named Paletti tried to build the tallest castle in the world. But before he could finish, he ran out of money and decided to take columns from the ground floor to construct higher levels above it. The result is his amazing masterpiece, the “Villa Paletti”. Can you repeat his daring feat?
This colorful, wooden game makes Jenga look like a walk in the park! Players must have a keen eye and a steady hand to keep building and balancing the structure. But watch out – one wrong move and it could all come tumbling down! Winner of the Game of the Year Award in Germany, this is a fun-filled challenge the whole family can enjoy.
Made with high-quality playing pieces, this game comes with a Game Platform, 20 Wood Columns, 5 Flat Wood Platforms, 1 Die, 1 Hook, and Game Instructions.
"In the two player game, there is a fair amount of strategy (surprisingly enough). Although I won a game recently because of my opponent accidentally bumping the villa, it was a very tense and suspensful game. This one play has made me rethink my opinion on this one as just a light filler. Although it still has a great deal of physical skill, it also has a great deal of mental strategy. And that makes it a much better game in my book." ~ Thomas Cackler, Staff Reviewer
