The Ultimate Sandcastle Showdown

It’s a perfect day at the beach, and the friendly competition has begun! Everyone is racing to build the most impressive sandcastle before the tide rolls in. In Sandcastles, you’ll stack sandy towers, line up rows of windows, connect colorful starfish, and decorate your masterpiece with buckets, shells, and shovels. As birds soar across the sky tiles at the top of your castle, your creation slowly comes to life, piece by piece.

Each turn, a tile is revealed and you decide whether to keep it or let it pass to someone else. Once you take a tile, you add it to your castle, carefully placing it to earn the most points by the end of the game. Over 15 quick rounds, your castle fills out piece by piece. Plan ahead, grab the right tiles at the right time, and build the best sandcastle on the beach.
